Shawnee is an absolute cuddle bug who loves nuzzling into your armpit and getting pets. She also LOVES playing with stuffed animals and gifting them to her hoomans. She has a medium amount of energy, typically being playful in the morning but chill the rest of the day. As she's come out of her shell, she's begun to love to play with her foster sister as well. She also loves enrichment toys. Her ruff past makes her a better fit for having a lady around. She can be with men, but they should not force her out of her kennel or to go anywhere she doesn't want, and should give her space and respect. Shawnee is very loyal, has great recall, and loves hard. She will be an amazing companion for someone. She is super silly and goofy and will make you laugh with her quirky personality. She is treat motivated so she is trainable. She has been prescribed anxiety meds for stressful situations but she doesn't need them that often. She has been through a lot and deserves all of the love and someone who will make her feel safe. She is low to medium energy so doesn't need much activity.
Ideal Home
Shawnee is looking for a home with adults who will respect her space and be patient with her, with no kids or cats. Dogs are fine if given the necessary time to intro and decompress. She likes people with calm energy that move slow with her, and people that can read her signals and give her space when she wants it. She would be a great companion for someone with a chill life who doesn't have too many visitors. Someone who will advocate for her space and help her continue to trust the world.
Ongoing Health
Shawnee takes joint supplements to help with a healed injury, as well as Carprofen (~$10.00 for a month's supply) to help with effective pain management.
Training & Support
Shawnee is bathroom and leash trained. She doesn't love the crate. She can be reactive on walks, so someone who can help redirect her focus would be ideal.
