Sadly, that owner eventually needed to move into memory care assisted living, and Sylvie returned to rescue through no fault of her own.<br/><br/>She was later adopted again, but after several months she came back to rescue because she and the resident dog were not a good match.<br/><br/>Those experiences have helped us understand exactly what Sylvie needs most: a home where she can be the only pet and finally have her person all to herself.<br/><br/>Sylvie is not the dog for every household, but for the right one, she could be an incredibly devoted companion. She doesn't need a busy social life or a house full of animals. She needs consistency, calm, affection, and someone who will love her for exactly who she is.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a playful, affectionate dog who wants to be your one and only, Sylvie may be waiting for you.<br/><br/>Ready to meet Sylvie?
