About Shell
Shell is a sweet, gentle girl, around 2 years old, weighing about 13-15 lbs. Initially shy, she opens up beautifully once comfortable and is great with both dogs and cats. Her energy is mellow yet playful; she's been an excellent car companion and is progressing well with potty training in her foster home. Shell adapts well to a gated area when left alone and enjoys soaking up the sun, both indoors and outdoors. Having come from a high-kill shelter, she's thankful for the love and safety of her current foster home. Shell is an easy keeper, enjoys her toys and chew bones, and has behaved well during grooming. She'll be a fantastic companion for a patient family. Shell is up to date on vaccinations, spayed, microchipped, and has been dewormed. Ready to meet this loving girl? Apply now!
