Abalone is a gentle soul with a shy streak, looking for a calm and understanding home alongside her brother, Otter. These two are a bonded pair who will need to find their new family together. Surrendered to rescue by a breeder at 10 months old, Abalone has made steady social progress in her foster home and now plays eagerly with Otter and her foster family's dogs. She requires time to warm up to people and prefers approaching on her own terms, but patience is rewarded with glimpses of her sweet nature. Abalone absolutely loves banana, to the point she'll sneak peels from the trash if given a chance. Her sparkling, tricolor coat catches the light when she's zipping around with other pups. Due to her timid personality, she will flourish with adopters who are gentle, patient, and committed to helping her feel secure in a new environment. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
