Apartments and busy city environments would not be a good fit for this gentle soul.<br/><br/>Val does prefer to eat her meals separately from other dogs, but she's perfectly happy to share treats and enjoy social time with her canine friends.<br/><br/>Because she is very sensitive to noise and sudden commotion, we are recommending a home without children.<br/><br/>Val isn't looking for perfection—she's looking for someone willing to give her patience, understanding, and unconditional love. In return, she'll reward you with unwavering loyalty, gentle companionship, and the joy of watching a shy dog discover just how wonderful life can be.<br/><br/>Could Valentine be the perfect match you've been waiting for? <br/><br/>Please copy & past the link below into your browser for our application:<br/>https://www.jotform.com/form/243374218477059<br/><br/>Questions?<br/>Email us at: savethedalsrescue@gmail.com<br/><br/><br/>**Disclaimer: None of our dogs have been DNA tested, so we cannot guaranty they are 100% full pure breeds.**
