IVY's Story

Meet Ivy Be prepared to fall in love with Ivy’s cuteness! This three-year-old sweetheart truly hit the jackpot when she was rescued by a kind family on Christmas Eve, after being found roaming the roads. They welcomed her into their home and kept her safe and loved until the shelter reopened after the holidays. The best part of her holiday adventure is that we learned so much about Ivy’s wonderful personality! She did well with the other dogs in her temporary home. While she likes to be the boss, she’s never rude—just confident. Ivey prefers a cat-free home, as she doesn’t get along well with feline friends, but she was fantastic with the family's five-year-old child. Despite being such a loving and well-behaved dog, no one came looking for Ivey during her stray hold with us, so she’s now available for adoption and ready to find her forever family! We’ve also seen her fun, playful side at the shelter. When she met another dog here, she ran right up with a wagging tail, zoomed around, and tried to get her new friend to play. Ivy can show a dominant side by standing over other dogs to sniff them, but she communicates well and responds politely when corrected. If you’re searching for a sweet, smart, and playful companion with great doggy communication skills, Ivy is ready to fill your home with joy and zoomies. Come meet her at the shelter ( ??430 Bristol Dr., Statesville, NC) and see for yourself why she’s impossible not to love! ?? Adoption Notes: • We always recommend meet-and-greets with resident dogs and children prior to adoption to ensure a great fit • Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule when adopting a shelter pet: ?? 3 days to decompress ?? 3 weeks to learn routines ?? 3 months to truly feel at home
