About Niffty

Niffty is a sweet and playful girl who has shown remarkable resilience after surviving a car accident. After a successful healing journey, she’s now ready for her forever home. With a medium energy level, Niffty is house trained and enjoys her walks. Initially a bit apprehensive on a leash, she has made impressive progress and now looks forward to her outdoor adventures. She’s friendly and gets along well with dogs of all sizes, often cozily cuddling with the resident pups in her foster home. In terms of training, Niffty is currently learning commands such as leave it, stay, sit, and off. Her favorite pastimes include squeaky toys, sunbathing, and indulging in belly rubs. Ideal for a calm and gentle home that can give her the attention she deserves, Niffty doesn’t need to live with another dog but would be happy around one. A couple of short daily walks would bring her joy. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
