Shelby

My story

Hello! I am Shelby, a 4-year-old female pittie. I love playing with blankets and will pull them all through the house. I love to do zoomies on the beds and couches, which is adorable. I love kids! I love my rope toy. I love walking outside and I would be great on hikes. I want to be a lap dog and get belly rubs, which are my favorite!!! I hug you all the time and I just want to melt into you when I lean on you. I can also be independent and crate well when needed. I am curious and I must smell everything! I have beautiful brown eyes that look at you as though to say, “ok what’s next?” I don’t like loud noises outside when walking or just going out to the bathroom. Nor do I like cars going by. My adopters will need to be cautious of this, so I don’t get spooked on my initial walks with them and try to run off. I am very loyal, and I will follow you all day while you get things done. I am such a joy, my fosters say it has been their privilege to help get me ready for my forever home. I am friends with pretty much everyone including the foster cat. The only thing is, I don’t get along with other dogs. This happens sometimes. I’m just one of those dogs that would be good for a one-dog family. I am just so full of love and excitement, and I would be a great family pet! Someone who can match my energy will be great since I play like a puppy!!! I am super smart & strong for my stocky self and I am learning new commands every day. I have filled out beautifully in my foster home. I arrived weighing 45lbs but am up to about 60 pounds fully healthy now. I am vaccinated, spayed and heartworm negative. They would keep me but they want to continue fostering to help other dogs in need. I am being fostered in Dyer, TN but can be transported to other states. Please note, there is a separate transport fee. If interested, please fill out an application today! You must be 21 or older to adopt me.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Shelby, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
