About Romy

Meet Romy, a lovely Anatolian Shepherd who came to us from a recent hoarding case. Having spent her early life in a confined space, she’s a bit of a cautious soul. At first, Romy may seem nervous as she adjusts to new environments. However, given the time and love from her new family, she will gradually open up and reveal her playful side. Once she feels safe, she enjoys lounging around, playing with toys, and even stealing your socks. It's essential for Romy to have a stable home environment. A confident dog buddy nearby can significantly help her adapt more quickly. While she’s fine with cats, we recommend a home for her with children 12 years and older, as younger ones can startle her. A secure, fenced yard is required so Romy can explore safely. Romy is currently located in Nashville, TN, but transport options are available. If you think Romy is the right match for you, don't hesitate to apply for adoption. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
