About Sweetie

Sweetie came into our care after losing her owner. Before joining us, she spent two months at a veterinary office where the staff adored her. They recognized that this lovely girl deserved a fresh start and connected her with us. At just around two years old and weighing about 52 pounds, Sweetie has a stunning brown and tan coat and a heart of gold. Since arriving, she has quickly become my faithful little shadow, deeply cherishing her human companions. She's great with kids, but due to her initial shyness, she thrives best with calm and gradual introductions to new faces. As for other dogs, she gets along well but will need a day or two to adjust, so be sure to introduce her slowly to any resident pups. She's house trained, doesn’t chew on furniture, and can be left without being kenneled. Sweetie is already spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, and on flea & tick prevention. Having already faced loss, Sweetie deserves a forever home filled with love and patience as she settles in. Could Sweetie be the perfect addition to your family?
