About Tootie

Tootie is a dog who truly leans into the people she trusts. This incredibly sweet girl might initially seem timid, but give her a little time, and her goofy personality starts to shine through. She loves being around people and craves affection, though she needs a moment to feel comfortable enough to express that need. Tootie is also fond of other dogs; while she may be shy at first, once she settles in, she enjoys playing and letting loose. Tootie is still discovering that the world can be a safe and enjoyable place. She's under-socialized and will thrive in a home that can patiently introduce her to new experiences without rushing her. Although we’re still working on some of her home skills, it’s evident that she has a loving nature and a genuine desire for trust and connection. She may not demand attention right from the start, but once she warms up, she’ll be right by your side, leaning in close, and seeking cuddles. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
