About Libby

She came into the rescue matted and with pesky weeds stuck in her fur, but after a good shave and flea treatment, she is looking much better. At about 4-5 years old, she weighs around 12 lbs and has a medium coat that suits her lively personality. Libby can be a bit vocal when strangers approach her kennel, but she has been sweet and well-behaved with me. Once she knows you, her affectionate side shines through, making her a nice companion. She's already spayed and ready for her forever home. If you're looking for a loving little dog, Libby could be the one for you. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
