Patricia is estimated to be 5 to 6 years old and is a Cavalier mix who was rescued from a puppy mill. Patricia is a very sweet and gentle girl who is slowly opening up and finding her personality! She can be a little shy upon first meeting someone, but it doesn't take her long to warm up. Patricia is still learning what a leash is and will need some good leash training to help her gain her confidence and make walks enjoyable for everyone. *Please note that Patricia requires a home with a fenced in yard** Interested in adopting?
