About Aphrodite

Aphrodite offers a foster-to-adopt option, so you can get to know her at a pace that works for both of you. She’s a shy but gentle soul who’s looking for a patient home to help her build confidence. Once she trusts you, she’s cuddly and incredibly sweet, taking treats gently and warming up at her own speed. She knows how to walk on leash, though quick noises and changes can startle her, so she’ll need a calm and understanding family. She’s crate trained—content to settle in quietly for hours—and waits to go outside before using the bathroom. At about 3 years old and around 37.5 lbs., Aphrodite is already spayed and microchipped. She’s current on her vaccinations and preventatives. Aphrodite would do best with a family who’s willing to offer her the time, structure, and affection she needs to flourish.
