Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now! Meet Ivy, a sweet and gentle 3-year-old weighing 51 pounds. Ivy is a calm, friendly girl who is ready to find her forever home. Ivy is excited to go out but is very easy to get out of her kennel. She walks beautifully on leash, only pulling a little when new smells catch her attention. She is highly treat-motivated and gentle when taking treats—she’ll even sit and give her paw for them! Ivy also knows 'down' and responds well to commands. She rides wonderfully in the car, enjoying the breeze and staying relaxed, lying down for most of the ride. She is extremely patient when getting out of the car, waiting calmly until given permission to move. Friendly and well-mannered, Ivy enjoys visits to new places—she recently stayed calm and happy during an outing without getting overly excited. She loves belly rubs, cuddles, and giving kisses, and listens well when called. While Ivy may seem timid at first, she’s just a little unsure; once she tries something, she becomes completely comfortable. Mostly calm and low-energy, Ivy can show moderate energy during play, making her the perfect blend of gentle, affectionate, and easygoing. She would make a wonderful companion for a loving home. As always, it’s strongly recommended that any resident dogs meet new canine family members. Bring proof of Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella vaccines if you’re bringing a resident dog for a meet-and-greet. Ivy is ready to meet you at Guilford County Animal Services between 12 and 4 any day except Tuesday! Fun fact: With a birthday on July 28, Ivy is a Leo—known for their warm presence and loving loyalty. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
