About Abby

Abby is a vibrant young lady who brings a lot of joy into every space she occupies. Although she has a happy-go-lucky spirit, she's still learning to manage her jumpy and mouthy tendencies. Abby does best in a home without children under 16, as she's a bit skeptical of men and may be vocal at first but settles down quickly. She interacts well with fellow dogs; while she can be reactive sometimes at the shelter, she's been non-reactive with the four dogs in her foster home, even when separated by crates and gates. Abby has enjoyed doggy daycare and really thrives in a lively environment. While she appears to be potty and crate trained, she can still be a high-energy companion, so a little patience will go a long way. She adores car rides and is ready to find a loving home where she can continue to grow. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
