Ivy is the sweetest, most loving little girl; truly the biggest cuddle bug there ever was! She’s easygoing, affectionate, and happiest when she’s with her people. She’s great with both people and dogs. Ivy tends to prefer her people and can take a little time to warm up and build a relationship with someone new, but she is neutral and appropriate when meeting new people. She’s also been doing wonderfully with the dogs in her foster home! Over time, she has become more and more playful and comfortable with them, which has been so lovely to watch. Ivy can be a little nervous in new or busy…
Shelter breed labels are an educated guess from a dog's looks, and they are often wrong. If you adopt Ivy, a DNA test can show the actual breed mix, which helps you plan training, exercise and health checks. See how the two main tests sold in Canada compare.
If Ivy isn't quite the right fit, these dogs are close matches.
