About Agnes

Meet Agnes, a gentle soul who is navigating the world with a bit of trepidation. At just 1 year old, she’s still discovering that life can be nurturing and safe. Although the shelter environment has felt overwhelming, Agnes shows her affection through soft nudges and sweet hand kisses. Treats are working wonders, helping her gain confidence and feel more at ease. Agnes needs a patient family who will allow her to settle in at her own pace. She's a bit nervous around other dogs, so introductions should be handled carefully and thoughtfully. With the right match and gradual introduction, she may adapt well to another dog in the home. Due to her sensitivity to sudden movements and noises, it’s essential that all young children meet her beforehand to ensure everyone is a great fit. With some love, patience, and understanding, Agnes has the potential to reveal her joyful personality beneath those initial nerves. Agnes is spayed, microchipped, and her vaccinations are current. Visit her at the shelter to learn more!
