About Flora

Flora is a vibrant and playful Carolina Dog mix, about 3 years old and weighing 46 pounds. Currently in Houston, Texas, she is ready to find her forever home. Flora thrives on interaction and loves to wrestle and be chased, needing a home with dogs that have similar energy levels. While she enjoys the company of her canine pals, she may do best as the only pet or with a balanced companion due to her need for slow introductions. Flora is fully housebroken, though she can show some anxiety in the crate. She's making strides with leash reactivity and would benefit from positive reinforcement to further develop her skills. Strong outdoor playtimes are essential for her, as she has high energy needs. Flora adores playing fetch, sunbathing, and snuggling with her people. She gets along well with children but is cautious of new ones. Flora is also protective around strangers, so an adult household might suit her best. This sweet dog has so much to offer, promising love and companionship. For a dedicated adopter who will invest time in her training and socialization, Flora is ready to bring joy into your life.
