Sandy is a gentle and thoughtful dog whose quiet company and peaceful presence can bring a sense of calm to any home. She is the type of dog you might not notice at first, but once you connect with her, you'll find her presence incredibly grounding. Sandy appreciates a slower pace of life and needs time to feel safe and comfortable. Once she does, her affection is slow and steady, preferring not to be rushed. She is observant and takes her time understanding her surroundings and new people. When she chooses to connect, it's with deep loyalty and a heartwarming genuineness, eventually becoming a comforting shadow.
Ideal Home
Sandy would thrive in a home that values a slower pace and understands that love doesn't always arrive loudly. She would do best in a home where she can continue to grow in confidence without pressure.
Ongoing Health
Sandy has received all necessary vetting, including DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, and a 12-month injectable heartworm preventative. She has also had a heartworm test and treatment if needed.
Training & Support
Sandy is polite and respectful with other dogs and has been respectfully avoidant with cats. She enjoys walks as a way to build a relationship and feel secure. While not explicitly mentioned, the rescue assesses and modifies behavior as needed, including crate training, potty training, and leash walking.
