About Nome

Hi friends, I'm Nome! If you're looking for a happy, easygoing companion who's always ready to join in on the fun, I think we should meet! I'm a sweet 6-year-old girl with a joyful personality, and nothing makes me happier than spending time with my people and making new friends along the way. My friends like to say I do happy "nome stomps" when you say my name and give me scratches, tapping my feet on the ground with joy. My eyes light up with excitement when I'm with my people, showing off all the love I have to give. And did I mention how much I love treats? They are my absolute favorite thing! I was a star at my recent vet visit because all I cared about were the treats, which made everyone laugh.

One of my favorite things is getting outside for an adventure. Whether we're heading out for a neighborhood stroll, playing a game of fetch, or spending the day by the water, I'm always ready to go. If there's a chance to go for a swim, even better! Splashing around in the water is one of my favorite ways to spend a sunny day. I'm also quite the social butterfly. I absolutely love to meet people, and when I see someone I know, I get so excited that I sometimes pop up to say hello and ask for a hug before happily wagging my tail and soaking up all the attention. I'm wonderful with children and have spent time with kids as young as five years old. I'm just as friendly with other dogs as I am with people. Running around with my canine friends, playing chase, and enjoying a good game together always puts a smile on my face. Whether I'm sharing my home with another playful pup or meeting friends out on a walk, I'm happiest when I have company.

Ideal Home

I'm looking for a family to share life's adventures with. Whether we're exploring a new trail, tossing a ball around the backyard, heading out for a drive, or simply relaxing together after a fun day, I'll be right by your side with a wagging tail and a happy heart. I'm happiest when I have company, so I'd love a home with another playful pup or opportunities to socialize with other dogs.

Ongoing Health

I had a great vet visit recently, and my main focus was on the treats!

Training & Support

I have good house manners and know my basic commands, happily showing off my sit skills for a treat. I walk well on leash and have a reliable recall, making outdoor adventures even more enjoyable. I'm always happy to listen when my people ask me to do something. I also ride wonderfully in the car, usually sitting while watching the world go by. If the windows are down so I can feel the breeze, that's just the icing on the cake!
