About Reba

Meet Reba, a delightful nine-year-old who weighs a petite fifteen pounds. This brave little soul is coming out of her shell more and more each day. In just a few days, she’s transformed from a shy newcomer into a loving companion who delights in sleeping beside her person and gently nudging them awake for some affection. Reba has a soft spot for belly rubs and has a unique way of leaning against you that feels heartwarming. Once she bonds with you, she’s fiercely loyal. Reba is gentle around other dogs during walks and rarely barks, making her a quiet presence in the home. Potty training is not an issue; she’s got that down, and her leash skills are impressive. She knows to check in with her human and rarely pulls, all while making progress on commands like "sit." Her routine consists of cozy morning snuggles, short strolls supplemented by a longer walk, plenty of sniffing adventures, and, of course, delightful naps. Living in an apartment suits her just fine, and she would thrive with a patient adopter who appreciates cuddles and is willing to help her explore the world at her own pace. Another dog for companionship could help her feel more secure. Her charming quirks include flapping ears that resemble little angel wings and a habit of burying her nose in her paws. Her foster emphasizes how incredibly sweet and loving Reba is. This little love just longs to be cherished, and her future adopter should know how deserving she is of a caring home.
