Nonna's Story

Some say my name, Nonna, sounds like 'grandma,' and at 8 years young, I <br/>suppose I have a certain seasoned charm, but trust me, I'm not ready for <br/>rocking chairs just yet! I'm a beautiful 42-pound Sharpee mix, and while my <br/>past started a little rough, being left behind in TJ, I've learned that new <br/>beginnings are full of promise and soft landings. My foster family says I'm <br/>a perfect houseguest, fully potty trained, and I love having the freedom to explore the yard and come inside as I please.<br/><br/>Snuggle Specialist There's nothing I love more than being close to my <br/>people, whether it's curling up on the couch or just being nearby for <br/>gentle pets. I'm a true cuddle bug and a lover at heart.<br/><br/>Plush Toy Pal My collection of lamby and other soft toys is very <br/>important to me! I love to gently mouth them, carry them around, and share <br/>my quiet joy with you.<br/><br/>Treat-Smart Student I am incredibly motivated by treats, which makes <br/>learning new things or just reinforcing good habits a fun game for both of <br/>us. It's how I show I'm an eager pleaser!<br/><br/>Gentle Homebody While I appreciate my freedom to potter around the <br/>yard, my favorite place is always beside you, making me an expert at <br/>relaxing and creating a calm atmosphere.<br/><br/>When it comes to my ideal home, I'm truly a gentle soul looking for a <br/>peaceful environment where I can be your one and only furry companion. I <br/>prefer to not share my space with other dogs, as I've found I do my best as <br/>the star of the show. I am still learning the ropes on leash manners and <br/>can be a little sensitive to loud sounds, so a patient home that understands these needs would be perfect. Off-leash, I haven't really had the chance to socialize, but on a leash, other dogs tend to make me a bit uncomfortable, so a quiet walking route or a fenced yard for my exercise would be ideal. I sleep soundly through the night, preferring to stretch out on a comfy dog bed rather than use a crate. I promise to fill your home with quiet devotion and endless snuggles, always eager to please and share my gentle spirit.<br/><br/>My adoption fee is $350, this fee covers my first year of vaccinations, <br/>spay/neuter, and microchip. Do I sound like the dog for you? You can fill <br/>out an application to adopt me at <br/>http://www.thecantufoundation.org/adopt.html
