About Cookie

Cookie is a gentle soul in need of a loving home. At five years old, she exudes a quiet warmth, often seeking reassuring hugs to help her navigate the unfamiliar and intimidating environment of the shelter. She appears to have come from a nurturing background, where comforts like soft surfaces and steady routines were part of her life. In her current situation, anxiety occasionally leads her to pull on the leash, as she is eager to escape the shelter. However, during calmer moments, she shows potential for loose-leash walking once she feels secure. Cookie has previously bonded well with a larger male dog and demonstrates an amiable nature, suggesting that she could thrive in a household with a furry companion, especially with slow introductions. With a family dedicated to providing love and stability, she is sure to flourish. Ready to make a difference in Cookie's life? Apply to adopt her today!
