Meet Shelby

Name: Shelby

Gender: Female
Location: Houston, TX
Adoption Fee: $250

Hello, my name is Shelby, and I am a senior dog with a big heart and lots of love to give! I am a gentle soul and can be a bit independent, but I am always curious about what's going on around me. Even though I may be a bit older, I still have lots of energy and love to do little zoomies! I am looking for a calm and quiet forever home where I can live out my golden years in comfort and happiness. I can't wait to meet you and start this new chapter in my life.

Shelby was born into a hoarding situation with over 250 dogs. She was saved when she was approximately 2 years old. She was adopted but returned when her owner was diagnosed with a health condition that prevented her from caring for Shelby. She still has some mental scars from the poor start to life. She is very timid when meeting new people. She will not approach you or even make eye contact initially. Once she figures out that you're a good person, you can approach her and pick her up but she hasn't quite figured out that cuddles are a good thing. She has however learned that pets are great especially if you have fingernails and apply a little pressure. She LOVES that. Even though she is very nervous, Shelby has never shown any signs of aggression, just fear. She is in a foster home with fewer dogs and is doing GREAT! The ideal home for Shelby is all adults who are quiet, calm, and patient.
