About Me:
Hi, I’m Wendy! I’m a 5-month-old Heeler mix with gorgeous markings, some seriously impressive ears, and a sweet, sensitive personality.
I can be a little timid when I’m figuring out new people and new situations, so I’m looking for someone who understands that the best relationships aren’t always instant. Give me a little time, some patience, and the chance to feel safe, and I’ll be able to show you more and more of the wonderful girl underneath. I’m still learning some of the basics, too—including how this whole walking-on-a-leash thing works! I’ll need a family willing to patiently practice with me, celebrate my progress, and help build my confidence along the way. I may need a little extra time in the beginning, but watching me blossom will make it that much sweeter.
​
Best Qualities
Sweet and gentle
Sensitive little soul
Smart and eager to learn
Blossoms with patience and encouragement
Building confidence every day
​
My Ideal Match
My perfect person is patient, gentle, and willing to let me come out of my shell at my own pace. Someone who won’t expect me to walk through the door brimming with confidence, but will find joy in all those little milestones—the first time I seek you out, the walk where I suddenly seem a little braver, or the moment you realize I’ve decided you’re my person. I don’t need to be rushed; I just need someone willing to believe in me.
​
Deal Breakers
Rushing me before I’m comfortable
Expecting perfect leash manners—I’m still learning
A home that isn’t willing to give me the patience and consistency I need to build confidence
​
Fun Fact
I may take a little time to warm up, but that just means earning my trust comes with some pretty special bragging rights.
