Raffi is a 6-year-old Havanese looking for a home where patience and kindness come first. She’s reserved at first when meeting new people, preferring to watch quietly and keep her distance until she feels secure. Once she trusts you, Raffi transforms into a true companion—always close, always ready to nudge your hand for more attention. She craves being near her person above all else. Sweet and cuddly by nature, Raffi enjoys being picked up and is making strides with leash walking. She’s still working on house training but sleeps peacefully in her crate at night and settles there if you step out. Raffi gets along well with other dogs and would do best in a home with another easygoing canine friend—this is a requirement for her, given her background. Toys are fun, but nothing beats quality time with her person. She is spayed, fully vaccinated, recently had a dental, and her adoption will be finalized near Cleveland, Ohio. A gentle, steady hand is what Raffi needs most. Ready to offer her a quiet place to blossom? They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
