Meet Staci, an almost 2-year-old, 18-pound mixed breed who’s still finding her way in the world. Shy and sensitive by nature, she won't be the one to jump into your lap right away. Instead, she quietly observes from the couch, hoping for your gentle reassurance. Staci is learning that people can be safe, and moments of trust for her look like sitting next to you, allowing familiar faces to pet her, and feeling secure enough to relax nearby. She's completely house trained, enjoys her role as a quiet, low-energy companion, and gets along wonderfully with other dogs—she truly thrives with a playful canine sibling. Ideal for Staci are quiet environments without young children, where she can feel safe and secure. She will need a confident dog friend to encourage her playful side, plus a very secure yard and supervised outdoor time, as she has some escape artist tendencies. While she may take time to warm up, the bond you’ll build with her will be deeply rewarding. Staci has been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and is current on heartworm, flea, and tick preventative. Her adoption fee is $225. If you understand that meaningful relationships take time, Staci might just be waiting for you to choose her. Ready to meet your new friend?
