Panda's Story

Panda came to AHeinz57 with her puppies all the way from OK. The puppies have been adopted so it is now her turn.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Panda is an almost 2-year-old cattle dog mix with a playful spirit and a gentle soul. She’s fully housebroken and doesn’t need to be kenneled - she’s a respectful housemate who just wants to be part of the family. Panda lives with two dog and two cat siblings and gets along great with them. She especially loves playing with her husky cousin and tends to gravitate toward bigger dogs when it’s time to romp around. <br/><br/><br/><br/>While she’s made huge strides in her foster home, Panda is still a bit skittish and takes her time warming up to new people. It took about six months for her to fully trust her foster family, but now she rewards them with cuddles, belly rub requests and lap dog snuggles. Once she bonds with you, she’s incredibly sweet and loyal.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Panda is a vocal girl who loves to run, jump, and explore the backyard. She enjoys walks and adores car rides, though she’s not a fan of getting in the car (a little coaxing helps!). She’s also a bit of an escape artist and will bolt out the front door if given the chance, so a secure, fenced-in yard and a single-family home would allow her to be her best self. She’s protective of her yard and sometimes needs a little encouragement to come back inside.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Loud noises can startle her, so a calm, patient home where she can continue to build confidence would be ideal. We'd also recommend older children for Panda since she can be startled easily. Panda listens well, loves being outside, and is happiest when she’s running free or soaking up affection from her trusted humans.<br/><br/><br/><br/>A meet and greet with all residents (furry and human) will be required to ensure that Panda feels safe and comfortable in her forever home. <br/><br/><br/><br/>Panda is a very sweet girl that is just looking for her future family that will be patient with her. If you are interested in Panda, you can fill out an application to meet her on our website.
