Pollie is a sweet and sassy 10-year-old, 56-pound girl who has mastered the art of being lowkey and lovable. She lights up with pure joy at meal times and treats, making her incredibly endearing. Pollie was found waiting patiently on the side of a busy road in downstate Illinois, and after being brought to animal control, she is now safe and enjoying the comfort she always deserved. She fits in beautifully in her foster home with other dogs, preferring to coexist peacefully rather than engaging in constant play. Pollie has a low energy level and enjoys a calm, steady rhythm to her days, which includes walks, time in the backyard, and simply being outdoors. Inside, she loves to find the softest spot for a nap or to enjoy a chew toy. She is affectionate, snuggly, and wonderful with children. While she sheds moderately and is generally quiet, her barks or howls can be impressively loud, making her a better fit for a home without shared walls. Pollie's leash manners are excellent, and she's described as a great walker. She doesn't require a high-energy household and is happiest with a calmer family who appreciates a peaceful companion. She's an easy fit for almost any home, including first-time dog owners. Her foster mom's favorite thing about her is that she's a lowkey, gentle soul who is content to be by your side, bringing warmth and comfort just by being in the room.
