My foster mom says I should tell you a little about myself. I’m a 5 yr old, 65-pound girl with wiry brown and gray fur, fancy white-tipped toes, and a very stylish little mohawk and eyebrows. Personally, I think the eyebrows are my best feature—they help me perfect my “sweet, hopeful puppy eyes.”<br/><br/>I’m what humans call a Velcro dog, which basically means if you’re my person… I stick with you. Everywhere. If you walk to the kitchen, I’ll come supervise. If you sit on the couch, I’ll be right there ready to snuggle. If you go to the bathroom… well… I hope you don’t mind company.<br/><br/>I’m a quiet girl and pretty low energy. I don’t bark much, I’m house trained, crate trained, and I walk nicely on a leash. The vet people said I was an excellent patient too (which I think deserves extra treats, but my foster mom says that’s “not how it works”).<br/><br/>I’ll be honest with you though… I’m still a little shy. Something happened in my past that made the world feel a bit scary sometimes. Loud noises and busy houses can make me nervous, and I may need you to be patient while I learn that everything is okay again.<br/><br/>But here’s the good news:<br/>Once I trust you, I love you with my whole heart.<br/><br/>I’ll sit near you with my little feet splayed out in the most comfortable way possible. I’ll wag my tail and give you my shy smile. I’ll quietly follow you around the house just to make sure you’re not lonely.<br/><br/>I get along fine with other dogs and even cats. I mostly mind my own business, but I’m happy to share my space with polite furry friends. Kids are okay too, but I’d prefer a calmer home with older kids who understand that I’m still building my confidence.<br/><br/>What I’m really hoping for is a peaceful home, a cozy couch, and a person who doesn’t mind a loyal shadow following them around.<br/><br/>My foster mom says that watching a shy dog like me blossom is one of the most special things in the world. I think she might be right.<br/><br/>Maybe that person could be you.<br/><br/>Love,<br/><br/>Leeloo 🐾<br/><br/>Leeloo prefers a quieter home, no small children, teenagers are okay, she prefers to stay away from loud people.
