About Little Lady

Little Lady arrived at the rescue after being rescued from a hoarding situation involving nearly 100 dogs. She is currently thriving at PACC’s Animal Restoration Kennel, a facility dedicated to helping animals in distress. Each dog has their own unique personality, and Little Lady is no exception. While she can be somewhat fearful, she is also gentle and has shown great potential for growth and trust with the right family. One volunteer noted how Little Lady is becoming more comfortable during walks, taking treats gently and even giving out a lick—a true sign of affection! She benefits from the presence of her kennelmate, so a confident companion in her future home might help her relax. Despite her timid nature, Little Lady has proven to be house trained and quiet during her brief stay with a foster. She requires a patient home that will allow her to acclimate to her new surroundings at her own pace. She's smart and well-behaved, just needing careful supervision until she feels secure. Don’t miss the chance to meet Little Lady!
