Introducing Daisy!

Curious Playful Loving Sensitive

Hi, I’m Daisy! I adore being near my person. I can be a little shy at first, but once I feel safe, I warm up quickly and become affectionate and eager to interact. I love exploring new places, going on adventures, and joining car rides so I can take in the world around me. When I’m really happy, I sometimes give a gentle “jumping hug” because I just can’t contain my excitement. I’m a deeply sweet girl who craves stability, reassurance, and a human who understands my sensitive nature.

I enjoy meeting new people and usually do great with strangers after a gentle introduction. I do okay with children, but I’d likely do best with older kids who can respect my boundaries and my excitement levels. I need to be the only dog in my forever home—I’m indifferent to other dogs but won’t tolerate any aggression from them. I made friends with the cats in my foster home right away, and I even do well with chickens, though I can get a little too interested or sniff a bit intensely at times.

Likes & Dislikes:


I love playtime
I enjoy being near my people and feeling included
I like snuggling and being close to my humans
I strongly prefer soft voices and gentle hands
I dislike loud noises, sudden movements, and nail trims


I know sit, down, and kennel. I’m crate-trained and will sleep in my crate at night or when left alone. I’m housebroken, but I may have accidents if I’m not crated. I’ll need a very consistent bathroom schedule and patience as I adjust. I do beg for food and can get overly enthusiastic when I’m happy, but I don’t dig and I rarely jump except when I’m bursting with joy. I walk better with a no-pull harness and do well with structured routines.

I have some food allergies and am currently on a fish-based protein dog food. I also have a cherry eye that needs gentle daily cleaning. I’m sensitive when something hurts, and I may react with lip curling or snapping if I’m in pain—my forever home will need to be patient, gentle, and understanding.

Forever Home Wishlist:


A patient and gentle family where I can feel secure and understood
A physical fence to help keep me safe while I explore
Any yard size is fine, as long as I get regular outdoor time
I must be the only dog in the home
A family who will continue my training
I love being with my people but can be left alone for 8+ hours if needed


Fun Fact: I’ve fully claimed the basement couch in my foster home as my personal paradise—I’ll snooze there for hours, surrounded by toys, as long as I know my person is nearby.
