IVY

Ivy went on a foster getaway recently, and her foster shared this wonderful update about their time together: ?? “If you want a dog as sweet as her name, Ivy is the one for you. We call her a velcro dog (stuck to your side), because Ivy knows no personal space between humans and animals — in the best way possible. At home, she adored being close to her foster humans. ‘Pet me’ was definitely Ivy’s love language! She met a 4-year-old during an outing to Ben & Jerry’s ?? and couldn’t stop wagging her tail. She stood politely, didn’t jump, and enjoyed every pet from her new friend. While in public, she waits to be approached — she never rushes up to people! During her week with us, she only had two accidents, both in the first couple of days. She loves to sleep in her crate with a cozy bed, but doesn’t like being locked in. ???? If you’re looking for a fun, outgoing dog who gets along with everyone (even ??), Ivy is your girl.” ?? Ivy was especially fond of her foster’s 9-year-old son — she slept with him at night (when not choosing her unlocked crate) and even cried when he left for school. She also did beautifully with their resident dog and was a perfect angel on all of their “field trips” together. Her foster did have a cat whom Ivy did get along with, however she would push that personal-space-button. ??She was also a great car rider!! ???? ?? Ivy greets everyone who visits her at the shelter with a wagging tail and so much excitement to spend time with them. She hopes to find a family who, like her foster family, gives her the chance to settle in with patience, understanding, and positive reinforcement. ?? We always recommend meet-and-greets with dogs and children already in the home before adoption to ensure the best match for everyone. ?? We invite you to come meet her in person and see for yourself just how sweet she truly is. She would love to earn a permanent spot next to you on the couch for future movie nights! ???? ? Ivy is housebroken, crate trained (unlocked, please!), and knows sit/down. ?? Location: 430 Bristol Drive, Statesville ?? Hours: • Monday–Friday: 12–5pm • Saturday: 11am–2pm ?? Adoption Fee: 8??0?? ?? Remember the 3-3-3 Rule when adopting a shelter pet: • 3 days to decompress • 3 weeks to learn the routine • 3 months to feel at home ?? ??
