About Florence

Meet Florence! This gentle, sensitive 6-year-old, 14 lb girl is still learning that the world is a safe place. Coming from a hoarding situation, she's making wonderful progress but will need a patient and understanding home to help her continue building confidence. Florence is very shy and introverted, needing time to feel safe and comfortable. She is good with dogs, cats, and respectful children, and would do best in a calm home, ideally with older children who understand boundaries. Florence is extremely gentle, not reactive or aggressive. She prefers the security of her crate and will retreat to it for comfort, sometimes benefiting from gentle encouragement to come out. She is still adjusting to new environments and can be nervous outside. Florence is doing well with house training but may have accidents if not taken out frequently. She may vocalize softly when left alone or separated and eats best when given space, potentially preferring wet food mixed with dry. A fenced yard would be beneficial for safe, low-pressure outdoor time. Florence is a sweet soul who just needs patience, routine, and a calm environment to truly blossom. With the right home, she will continue to gain confidence and become a quiet, devoted companion.
