Indy

My story

HIGHLIGHT:Requires another confident dog already established in the homeMeet Indy – a shy girl with a big heart who`s ready to blossom in the right home.Indy is a 1-year-old mixed breed who weighs about 50 pounds. She’s a sweet and affectionate pup once she gets to know you, but she takes her time warming up. With people she doesn’t know, she can be standoffish and avoidant, but once you’re part of her circle, she becomes incredibly loving, snuggly, and loyal. She’ll happily give kisses, crawl into your lap, and soak up all the affection she can.Indy requires a confident dog already in the home to help her continue to build trust and confidence. She thrives in the company of other dogs—she loves to play, makes fast friends, and comes out of her shell when she’s around dog buddies.This adventurous girl is always up for some fun. She loves toys, splashing in water, car rides (she jumps in on her own and does great!), and especially hiking and long walks. She’s energetic, curious, and happiest when she’s exploring the outdoors or romping around with her dog pals.Indy is crate trained, nearly potty trained, and working on her basic obedience in her foster home. She does have some typical puppy habits like chewing, but with the right toys and guidance, she’s doing great.If you`re looking for a fun, active companion and are willing to give her the time and patience she needs to fully trust, Indy will reward you with the deepest love and most loyal friendship.Before being rescued, many of our dogs had limited socialization, so they may need some time to adjust to life as a family pet. Older kids are often a great fit for dogs like Indy, and homes with younger children will be considered based on each dog’s individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may take a little extra patience and practice. However, with time and a gentle approach, most of these dogs adapt quickly. Being a part of their rehabilitation is incredibly rewarding. To learn more about our dogs and start the adoption process, please visit our website.
