About Nonna

Some say my name, Nonna, sounds like 'grandma,' and at 8 years young, I suppose I have a certain seasoned charm, but trust me, I'm not ready for rocking chairs just yet! I'm a beautiful 42-pound Sharpei mix, and while my past started a little rough, being left behind in TJ, I've learned that new beginnings are full of promise and soft landings. My foster family says I'm a perfect houseguest, fully potty trained, and I love having the freedom to explore the yard and come inside as I please. There's nothing I love more than being close to my people, whether it's curling up on the couch or just being nearby for gentle pets. I'm a true cuddle bug and a lover at heart. My collection of lamby and other soft toys is very important to me! I love to gently mouth them, carry them around, and share my quiet joy with you. I am incredibly motivated by treats, which makes learning new things or just reinforcing good habits a fun game for both of us. It's how I show I'm an eager pleaser! While I appreciate my freedom to potter around the yard, my favorite place is always beside you, making me an expert at relaxing and creating a calm atmosphere. I sleep soundly through the night, preferring to stretch out on a comfy dog bed rather than use a crate. I promise to fill your home with quiet devotion and endless snuggles, always eager to please and share my gentle spirit.

Ideal Home

I'm truly a gentle soul looking for a peaceful environment where I can be your one and only furry companion. I prefer to not share my space with other dogs, as I've found I do my best as the star of the show. A patient home that understands my needs would be perfect. A quiet walking route or a fenced yard for my exercise would be ideal.

Ongoing Health

No ongoing health concerns mentioned.

Training & Support

I am still learning the ropes on leash manners and can be a little sensitive to loud sounds.
