Lady's Story

Meet Lady!<br/>Lady is a 2-year-old Kelpie/Bloodhound mix with a huge heart and a wicked-smart brain. She came from Dallas and has been thriving in her foster home ever since.<br/><br/>Lady is deeply affectionate and bonds quickly, but she’s a little shy at first — especially around hands — and appreciates someone who lets her set the pace early on. Once she trusts you, she’s loyal, loving, and all-in.<br/><br/>As a true working-breed mix, Lady is sharp, eager to learn, and loves having a “job.” If it moves, she’ll try to herd it, so she does best with adults and either as an only dog or with dogs who won’t mind her instincts. She absolutely shines with consistent direction, structure, and clear boundaries.<br/><br/>Lady’s superpowers:<br/><br/>Wicked smart + quick learner<br/><br/>Treat-motivated and thrives with positive reinforcement<br/><br/>Nose that never quits — she loves scent work and mental games<br/><br/>Bonds deeply once she feels safe<br/><br/>Lady is also working through a few things: she can be leash reactive, she has some resource-guarding tendencies, and she’s still learning to trust hands. The good news? She responds incredibly well to training and consistency. Her foster family, along with guidance from a trainer, has already given her a strong foundation — especially with her crate, which she now sees as her safe, cozy spot.<br/><br/>Lady’s dream home:<br/><br/>Adults only<br/><br/>A yard for zoomies<br/><br/>Someone steady, patient, and consistent<br/><br/>An adopter excited to continue training (she loves it and learns fast!)<br/><br/>If you want a smart, devoted, endlessly rewarding companion who’s ready to grow with you, Lady could be your girl. She just needs the right person to bring out her very best.
