About Gretel

Gretel is a gentle soul with a sweet heart who needs a bit of extra time to gain her confidence. She can be shy around new people and environments, so a patient family that understands her needs will be ideal. As she begins to feel secure in her space, her loving nature shines through, and she might lean in for some affection. This little lady has a medium energy level and would thrive in a calm and nurturing home. She is motivated by affection and blossoms with gentle encouragement, positive reinforcement, and patience. Children aged 10 and older, who can respect her boundaries as she adjusts, would be the best match for her. If you have other dogs, slow and thoughtful introductions will help everyone get along comfortably. Though she may not rush to greet you at first, the wait is definitely worth it. If you are ready to give this sweet girl the time she needs, Gretel could become an incredibly special companion. Are you the one to help her flourish?
