About Flora

Flora is a spirited, 3-year-old spayed female Carolina Dog mix, currently staying with her foster family in Houston, Texas. Weighing around 46 pounds, she's playful and thrives on interactive games like wrestling and chasing, needing plenty of exercise to keep her happy at home. Flora enjoys the company of dogs similar in size and energy, but she may also do best as the only pet in a household. With proper, gradual introductions, she can get along with other dogs, though she has shown some leash reactivity and may need consistent training to boost her confidence around strangers. Flora is fully housebroken and while she has experienced some anxiety in a crate, she does well at home when unsupervised. She shares her toys nicely and is only a bit food possessive, needing gentle reminders. This lovable dog has an affectionate side, enjoying snuggles and quiet time. Flora's ideal home would be one with an active person, who can engage her in regular outdoor play and provide the structure she needs to flourish. Flora may benefit from an adult-only household due to her nervousness around new children and her tendency to bark at unfamiliar faces. She can be spooked by storms, so a calm, understanding environment is essential for her well-being. Overall, Flora is a wonderful companion who is sure to bring love and joy to a devoted owner willing to guide her along the way. Your new best friend is just one click away.
