She has lost two owners and clearly was someone's constant companion. When she first arrived, she was timid and withdrawn, unsure if she needed decompression, or if she was simply grieving... likely both.<br/><br/>For the first 48 hours, she would not engage at all. No play. No interaction. Just quiet observation.<br/><br/>Now? She's slowly starting to come out of her shell. She will engage in play at times (though she doesn't initiate yet), and she's beginning to show more personality each day. It's progress, gentle, steady progress.<br/><br/>She crates quietly when needed but isn't fully relaxed there and resists going in. Because she was so withdrawn at first, she was allowed on the bed, and now she absolutely seeks closeness. She enjoys affection and, in a single-dog home, would likely be a true velcro companion.<br/><br/>She is fully house trained.<br/>She free-feeds appropriately with no food guarding or overeating.<br/>She can be trusted with free roam when home alone, monitored at first, and she did beautifully.<br/>She was initially resistant to basic commands like "sit," but she's improving as she settles in.<br/><br/>In a multi-dog environment, she has started to compete a bit for affection and positioning, something to note if placed with another dog. She may truly thrive as the only dog where she doesn't feel the need to share attention.<br/><br/>Cinnamon has a quiet, laid-back presence. She has a soulful gaze and an "old soul" energy about her. She may look older in expression, but it feels more like wisdom than age.<br/><br/>Long story short, she needs time. But she is an easy dog to live with. Gentle. Cuddly. Calm.<br/><br/>With patience and consistency, Cinnamon will give someone deep, devoted companionship. <br/><br/> If you're ready to offer comfort, commitment, and forever love, Cinnamon is waiting to meet you.<br/><br/>https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HPH/Dog
