About Sandy Avalon The Girl with the Gentlest soul

Sandy Avalon is a truly special girl with a soul as gentle as they come. She has the kind of eyes that look into your heart and instantly melt you. Sandy is quiet, affectionate, and incredibly sweet. She may take a moment to warm up to new people, but once she does, you'll have a loyal best friend for life. Her affection is shown in subtle lean-ins and tiny steps closer for a loving touch. Sandy is the embodiment of love and has so much of it to share!

Ideal Home

Sandy thrives in a home that understands her need for a patient approach and provides her with a secure, fenced yard for exploration. She does best with at least one other dog in the home, as canine companionship helps build her confidence. A home with older, respectful children would be ideal, as sudden movements can startle her.

Ongoing Health

Sandy is a healthy girl who has been fully vetted. This includes DAPP vaccination with a booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad-spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, and a 12-month injectable heartworm preventative. She has also tested negative for heartworm.

Training & Support

Sandy is fully crate trained and a perfect potty-trained lady, having had no accidents in foster care. She walks beautifully on a leash, remaining non-reactive to distractions, and enjoys short car rides. While not strongly treat-motivated, she adores Colby Jack cheese, which is used for administering her flea medication. She is quiet and rarely barks, making her a perfect addition to a peaceful home. Sandy enjoys affection on her own terms and shows it with slow movements, relishing chin scratches, head rubs, and chest massages.
