About Sheba

Sheba is a 5-year-old mixed-breed dog from Barbados, often affectionately known as a “cane dog.” Weighing around 25 pounds, she has a warm brown coat, a black snout, and a small splash of white on her belly. She is thriving now that she receives regular, nutritious meals and care. Although Sheba had a loving owner, she faced challenges that kept her outside and tied near a busy road. She raised at least one litter of puppies, some of whom found homes in the U.S. Through it all, Sheba’s spirit has remained strong. Given time to acclimate, she has shown herself to be an affectionate soul who adores belly rubs. Sheba is house-trained and enjoys the company of both big and small dogs. While she has lived alongside cats outdoors, it’s unclear how she will adjust to sharing an indoor space with them, but she seems adaptable. She’s developing good leash skills and has made significant progress following daily routines. This gentle girl will benefit from further training to learn basic commands and household etiquette. She may occasionally jump up with those she trusts and joins in with the other dogs when they bark. With patient guidance, Sheba can practice calmer greetings as she continues to adjust to her new life. She needs a home that offers a comforting routine, loving attention, and patience as she settles in. Sheba is ready to embrace the joys of a family life. Could you be the one to provide her with warmth and a place to call home?
