About Davina

Meet Davina! At just 5 months old, Davina has overcome quite a lot. This sweet Heeler mix was saved from euthanasia at the last moment. Though she arrived feeling scared and uncertain, she’s been making wonderful progress each day. Davina remains a bit shy in new situations, but her confidence is growing with the right mix of patience, love, and the companionship of other dogs. Therefore, she would thrive best in a home with another confident canine to guide her and show her that the world can be a welcoming place. As is common with Heelers, Davina has begun to exhibit some herding instincts. This is something to consider if you have small children or little dogs, as she may try to herd them in the playful moments. Davina is spayed, up to date on her vaccinations, microchipped, and on regular flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. She is ready to leave her difficult past behind and find a patient family willing to help her blossom into the amazing dog she is meant to be. Could you be the one to show Davina what forever feels like?
