Shelby's Story

Hello, my name is Shelby, and I am a senior female with a lot of love to give. I am protective and independent, and I take my role as your loyal companion very seriously. I am hoping to find a family who will understand my needs and give me the space and respect I deserve. I am still learning about the world around me and would benefit from a patient and understanding family who can help me build trust and feel comfortable. I am on the lookout for my soulmates—a family who will see the unique bond I have to offer and give me the time and love I need to flourish. Could that be you?
