When I'm nervous, I can be reactive as I try to create space for myself. My family helps me succeed by letting me move at my own pace and decide when I'm ready to trust someone new.<br/><br/>I also prefer having my own space around food and favorite resting spots. Clear boundaries help me feel secure.<br/><br/>One thing that really helps me thrive is being around calm, confident dogs. Dogs who aren't pushy help me feel safe and show me that new things aren't so scary. I learn a lot by watching them.<br/><br/>Fast moving people and animals can still make me nervous, so I'd do best in a quieter home that understands my needs. But once I'm comfortable, my playful side shines! I get zoomies, race around the yard, and show off my spunky personality.<br/><br/>I'm looking for a patient adopter who understands that trust is something we would build together. I may not be the dog who runs up to greet everyone on day one, but if you give me time, consistency and understanding, I'll reward you with a truly special bond.<br/><br/>Love, Nora <br/><br/>Adoption fee: $595.00

Hi, I'm Nora.

The world is still pretty new to me.

I came from a very crowded home, so I missed out on some of the experiences many dogs get when they're young. The good news? I've been making up for lost time and discovering that the world can be a pretty fun place. Every day, I get a little braver.

One of my favorite discoveries has been toys! I love collecting them and tucking them away under couches or in my room for safekeeping. Treats are pretty great too-they help me learn new things and build confidence when I'm facing something unfamiliar.

I'm a smart girl who already knows commands like sit, stay, come, and potty. I like routines and appreciate knowing what's expected of me.

Walks are one of my favorite activities. They help me relax, explore at my own
