About Genevieve

Genevieve is shaping up to be a gentle giant. At five months old, she’s already 50 pounds and still has plenty of growing ahead of her. Her coat is a beautiful mix of white, cream, and silvery gray, medium in length and plush to the touch. She absolutely adores being around people of all ages and lights up when she’s in the company of other dogs. This is not a leash-walking puppy—Genevieve will only thrive in a home with a secure fenced yard where she can run safely. She’s not yet house trained, so patience and structure will be important as she settles into her new home. Genevieve is fully up to date on her vaccinations. If you’re looking for a social, affectionate companion who'll grow into a big presence in your life, she might be just the one. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
