Stevie is a gentle, sweet 6 yr old mill mama who is just beginning to adjust to home life. She is a quiet, low-maintenance companion who loves cozy beds, soft toys, and a predictable routine. Most of her day is spent relaxing in her favorite spots around the house, and she sleeps peacefully through the night. She is doing well with alone time and is not destructive or noisy. Stevie is partly house trained—she will go outside with some encouragement and help but may still use pee pads. She is very food motivated, which will be helpful as she continues building confidence and learning new…
If Stevie isn't quite the right fit, these dogs are close matches.
A few things we'd have ready before bringing Stevie home, matched to their size and age.
