Marianne's Story

Meet Marianne<br/><br/>Marianne is a very sweet and sensitive girl who is still learning that the world can be a safe and loving place. While she may not be the type of dog who immediately runs up to greet strangers, those who are patient enough to earn her trust will discover a gentle, thoughtful companion with so much love to give. She's naturally shy and timid and will need a very special home that understands dogs like her. Marianne takes time to decompress, settle in, and feel comfortable in new environments, so her future family will need to be patient, calm, and willing to let her progress at her own pace. Experience with timid, fearful, or under-socialized dogs would be a huge plus. Marianne would thrive in a quieter home with a predictable routine and someone who is home much of the day to help continue building her confidence. One of the biggest things helping Marianne blossom has been the presence of friendly, confident dogs, so we believe she would do best in a home with another well-matched canine companion (or two!) who can help show her the ropes and provide reassurance. Because of her sensitive personality, Marianne is unlikely to do well in a busy or chaotic household environment. She's looking for a home that will celebrate the small victories, understand that trust takes time, and appreciate the incredibly rewarding journey that comes with helping a shy dog come out of her shell. Watching Marianne slowly gain confidence and begin to feel safe has already been so rewarding, and we know that in the right home, she will continue blossoming into a deeply loyal and loving companion.<br/><br/>If you have a calm home, a patient heart, and room in your life for a dog who simply needs someone to believe in her, Marianne may be the perfect match for you.<br/><br/>PupFax: Marianne<br/>Adoption Status: Cleared and Ready!<br/>Medical Clearance: Cleared<br/>Medical Status: Cleared<br/>Location: Bend/Central Oregon<br/>Rescue Intake Type: Rescue/Shelter - Domestic<br/><br/> At-a-Glance Stats <br/>Breed: Mixed Breed<br/>Size: Medium<br/>Weight: 55 (Approx. last weigh-in)<br/>Sex: Female<br/>Spayed/Neutered: Yes<br/>Vaccinations: Yes<br/>Microchipped: Yes<br/><br/> Home & Lifestyle Fit <br/>People: Good<br/>Dogs: Good<br/>Cats: Unknown<br/>Activity Level: Medium<br/><br/> Training & Manners <br/>House/Potty Trained: Yes!<br/>Crate Trained: Yes<br/>Leash Skills: In Progress<br/>Commands Known: Sit and learning more.<br/>Food/Treat Motivation: Good<br/>Health Notes: None<br/>Overall Health: Good<br/>Known Medical Needs: None<br/>(All known medical and behavioral information is disclosed prior to adoption.)
