About Matilde

Meet Matilde! This delightful girl, a Portuguese Podengo, combines the charm of a noodle with the grace of a playful pup. Matilde, at four years old and about 30 lbs, is in need of a little extra weight, which her forever home will help her achieve. Despite her sweet demeanor, Matilde lacks confidence and requires a safe space to truly shine. Once she feels secure, her affectionate personality will emerge. She's basically a velcro pup—loving to snuggle with her head in your lap, soaking up love and attention. She is good on the leash and meets other dogs positively, but high-energy pups might overwhelm her. Matilde does well with cats but may change her behavior as she settles in. A home with children aged 12 and above is ideal, as quick movements could spook her. Let this sweet girl be your new companion!
