About Shell

Shell is a gentle and sweet girl, around 2 years old and weighing in at about 13-15 lbs. While she may be shy at first, she warms up nicely and loves being around other dogs, as well as cats. With a mellow yet playful energy, Shell enjoys sunbathing in the window or yard and has been a gem on car rides. Currently in a foster home, she is making great strides with potty training and is comfortable in a gated area when left alone. Shell is quiet, enjoys toys and chew bones, and is easy to groom. Her previous life as a stray in a high-kill shelter only makes her more appreciative of the love and care she is receiving now. Shell is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and dewormed. She’s ready to find her forever family and would make a wonderful companion for someone patient. Think you are the one?
