About Ethel

Meet Ethel! This sweet 5-year-old Beagle is on the lookout for a loving forever home where she can take her time, feel secure, and discover how wonderful life can be. New situations sometimes overwhelm her, so she needs a bit of time to warm up before feeling comfortable. A patient family is essential for her to build trust, as it doesn't happen overnight. Once Ethel opens up, her delightful personality truly shines! Having another dog nearby offers Ethel comfort, and we're seeking a home with a canine friend who can help her come out of her shell and teach her the ropes. With a bit of patience, loads of love, and a furry companion by her side, Ethel has incredible potential to blossom into a wonderful companion. Does she sound like a good fit for you?
