Vallarta

{{Vallarta is a beautiful 1.5-year-old Anatolian mix with a gentle heart and an old soul. Beneath her shy and sensitive nature is an incredibly sweet dog who simply needs someone patient enough to show her that the world is not as scary as it seems. Having spent most of her life on the property where she was raised, much of the outside world is still very new to Vallarta. New environments, loud noises, unfamiliar places, and strangers can feel overwhelming for her, and when she becomes nervous she tends to hunker down and try to disappear. Once Vallarta feels secure and mentally at home, her true personality shines. She is mellow, laid back, and happiest lounging around near the people she trusts. Every now and then she surprises you with playful little puppy bursts that are impossible not to smile at. While she is not especially treat motivated, she absolutely loves bubbles and tennis balls. Vallarta has been raised around children and adores her kiddos. She is also good with other dogs and takes comfort in calm companionship. She rides in the car and may start off nervous, but she settles down once it gets going.}}
