Xena

Xena is a sweet 4-year-old Lab mix who came to us after her family could no longer care for her. From the moment she arrived, she made fast friends with our staff—she's the kind of dog who lights up a room just by walking into it. She's currently spending time in our ADorm with one of our volunteers and has been doing wonderfully. Xena has lived with both dogs and cats before, though she didn't always get along with them. During her dog test here, she showed a bit of reactivity toward another dog, so we're taking things slow and paying close attention to her comfort level. She wants to be social—she just needs a patient companion to help her feel confident. Xena is affectionate, people-oriented, and eager to bond. She's ready for a family who can give her stability, kindness, and the chance to blossom into her best self.

Ideal Home

Xena would thrive best as the only pet in the home, or with a calm, well-rounded dog who won't mind giving her the time and space she needs to understand that new friends are safe.

Ongoing Health

Xena is spayed and vaccinated.

Training & Support

Xena showed some reactivity toward another dog during testing, so patience and a slow introduction to new canine friends will be key. She is house-trained.
