Sandy's Story

Meet Sandy – Your Future Shadow and Snuggle Buddy!<br/><br/>Sandy is a beautiful retriever mix, possibly with hints of Shar Pei or Black Mouth Cur, and she’s on the lookout for her forever family. She arrived at the shelter with three other dogs after her previous owner became incarcerated, but that hasn’t stopped her from learning to love and trust again.<br/><br/>A little shy at first, Sandy quickly warms up and becomes an affectionate, loyal companion. She’s the #1 fan of belly rubs and a total sucker for snuggles! With consistency, patience, and kindness, she has blossomed into a playful pup with a silly streak that will steal your heart.<br/><br/>Smart and eager to please, Sandy already knows basic commands like “sit,” “leave it,” “touch,” and “come.” She is both crate trained and housebroken, making her a wonderful housemate. She enjoys romping around with other dogs and even hops on the treadmill to burn off her zoomies—yes, really!<br/><br/>Sandy is looking for a home that will continue to help her build confidence and show her that the world is a safe and loving place. In return, she’ll be your faithful shadow, your cuddle buddy, and your biggest fan.<br/><br/>If you're ready to meet a gentle, goofy girl with a heart full of love, Sandy is ready to meet you!<br/><br/>Please consider becoming a foster home while you search for your new best friend. We need foster homes - pounds are overflowing with puppies and adult dogs that are at-risk and need help. We can only rescue as many as we have foster home commitments. Fostering is a rewarding experience for your family.
