Lavender

Hello humans! My name is Lavender, and I’m a sensitive, high-energy 3-year-old girl looking for someone special. I may not be a puppy anymore, but I still have a youthful spirit and plenty of zest for life! I have a shy exterior and am very fearful of strangers, and I need an adopter with experience helping dogs work through behavioral challenges—especially extreme shyness and fear-based behaviors. I am not aggressive, I just freeze in the presence of strangers and unfamiliar people.

Once I trust you, my playful side shines. I love to run, chase my brothers, and play with all kinds of toys. I zoom so fast my ears fly straight back—so if you could help me get them back in place afterward, that would be awesome! And when all that fun tires me out, I’m a total snugglebug who’s happiest curled up in a warm lap. I promise I’m worth the effort.
