She can be timid around people, often cowering or backing away when someone attempts to pet her. But beneath that shyness lies a heart eager to trust. Once she feels safe, she'll shower you with kisses and eagerly seek out affection. Sweet Tart thrives around other dogs, particularly smaller ones, which may help her gain confidence as she adapts to her new surroundings. She’s also working on her potty training and will need a patient owner who understands she’s learning skills that many dogs pick up easily.

A home with friendly canine companions would be a plus! Sweet Tart deserves to feel safe and loved as part of a family, celebrating every small victory along her journey. Located in Jackson, Missouri, Sweet Tart's adoption fee is $350, which includes her spay, vaccinations, and microchip.
