About Ivy

Meet Ivy! Ivy is a playful 9-week-old Bully mix puppy searching for her forever home! With her gentle and loving nature, she adores playing with her toys, snuggling with her humans, and savoring each adventure at her own pace. Unlike her adventurous sister Iggy, Ivy takes her time exploring the world around her. She is off to a great start with her puppy training. Ivy sleeps quietly in her kennel at night and is making progress with potty training when kept to a consistent schedule. She's also learning to embrace collars and leashes as part of her growth. While she loves entertaining herself, Ivy thrives on being close to her family. With patience, love, and continued training, she will undoubtedly become a wonderful lifelong companion. If you’re searching for a loyal and sweet-natured puppy, Ivy is eager to meet you! The standard adoption fee is waived. We want to ensure that Ivy finds the best match in a loving home, so please complete an adoption application, participate in a phone interview, and have a meet-and-greet with everyone in your household. Applications will only be reviewed when fully completed. Begin your journey with Ivy—she can't wait to bring joy to your life!
