About Daisy

Daisy is a lively mixed-breed dog with a fun-loving spirit. Estimated to be around 2 years old, she's always ready for adventure and making new friends, especially with men. Affectionate and playful, she’ll charm you with her goofy nature, making her an ideal buddy for someone looking for a spirited companion. Although she weighs around 12 lbs and could stand to gain a little more weight, her personality certainly makes up for it. After being rescued from a local shelter as a stray, Daisy has transformed since her grooming. She's settled well into foster care, eagerly awaiting her forever family. Whether it’s walks or car rides, Daisy thrives on activity and enjoys being part of the action. She does well with other dogs but prefers being fed separately due to her food obsession. While she views cats as potential playmates, her enthusiasm can be overwhelming, so a home without cats would suit her best. Daisy is house-trained and accustomed to being crated when home alone, although she needs a family that won’t leave her alone too often. Keep in mind that her coat will require regular professional grooming, and being brachycephalic means she'll need special attention during warmer weather. Daisy is ready to bring joy into someone's life. If you think that could be you, submit your application today!
