Effie's Story

Does your dog need a dog? Has your loving four legged best friend been begging for a furry friend? Looking for the medium-est medium size dog you will ever meet? <br/><br/>Say "Hello!" to Effie. <br/><br/>Effie is sweeter than sweet. She could give you a toothache and make you melt at the same time. <br/><br/>At around 2 years old and 40 lbs, she is the perfect snuggle size. She is short and compact and definitely looks like she weighs less than 40 lbs. She is beautiful and has the most soulful eyes. <br/><br/>Effie is extremely dog and cat friendly. She is housebroken and crate trained. She loves all chews and toys. If you leave her unsupervised with stuffies, they do have a strange habit of exploding. <br/><br/>Effie is fully vetted - spayed, up-to-date on vaccines and heartworm prevention, and microchipped. This girl is ready to find her home. <br/><br/>So what gives? Why is she still in foster care?<br/><br/>Wellllll, Effie is shy. She is a timid, submissive girl. I don’t know much about her back story, but it is easy to see how this scared beauty was overlooked in the shelter. <br/><br/>If you want a dog that is going to trust you on day one, Effie isn’t for you. <br/><br/>But if you can appreciate a dog that takes time to trust and deeply value those perfect moments of connection, Effie could be everything you’ve been dreaming about. <br/><br/>Effie is scared by loud noises (loud cars, sirens, thunder.) She does walk well on a leash, though. Effie is still working on building her confidence and nothing makes her light up like another dog. <br/><br/>We adore Effie, but she needs to find her forever family. We celebrate every small victory - coming out of her kennel on her own, running up to give kisses without prompting, zoomies when she thinks no one is watching. <br/><br/>Effie is an incredible dog, she needs an incredible family that will love and appreciate her gentle spirit and find joy in bringing her peace, stability, and confidence. <br/><br/>Effie is adoptable through Pet Pack Rescue Initiative to the right family. Some victories are fleeting. Winning the love of a dog like Effie is a victory that will last a lifetime.
