Shirley

My story

Introducing ShirleyShirley came to us a stray with a story and a whole lot of heart. She started out at 44 pounds of mystery and has blossomed into a confident, loving 57-pound bundle of pure charm—and maybe a little sass.She’s officially a Club Dog—meaning she doesn’t just hand out her trust like candy. You’ve got to earn a spot in Shirley’s inner circle. But once you’re in? Congrats, you’re family for life. Expect unwavering loyalty, side-by-side adventures, and the occasional “hey, you’re cool” glance.Shirley’s got some special needs and prefers to be the one and only pet star of the show—no doggy drama, please—and she’d rather not share her kingdom with young kids. If you’re into road trips, working from home, or just enjoying life’s simple pleasures, Shirley might just be the perfect sidekick you didn’t know you needed.One of our volunteers took her on a doggy day trip and said, “Shirley was a rockstar! She settled right in, nailed commands like sit and shake, and even showed off her zoomies and furniture parkour skills. But her favorite spot? Right by your side, no contest.”Ready to join Shirley’s exclusive fan club? Call us at 410-827-7178 to set up a meet-and-greet and discover your new best friend.
