Libby came to Little Paws after her previous owners gave her away on Facebook. Though she needs a little time to settle in, she is a wonderful, affectionate companion who loves to play and is a fantastic cuddler when sleeping with you at night. Environment Libby has high energy and loves daily walks and playtime. She is a great walker on a leash and loves exploring the outdoors. She would love a fenced yard to run and play safely, but would do well if exercised regularly on a leash and harness. Because she can be quite chatty and bark loudly when strangers approach, she is not suitable for living arrangements with shared walls like apartments or townhomes. She relies on pee pads and is not currently crate trained, crying the entire time if placed in a kennel. Pets & People Libby does wonderfully with other dogs of all sizes and loves playing with her foster's 2-year-old dachshund. Another playful dog in the home helps greatly with her anxiety and would be her ideal setup. With people, Libby needs about two days to warm up and prefers women, as men have not always been kind to her in her past. We will not place her with small children. While she barks loudly at strangers to protect herself, she has done wonderfully at large adoption events when given patience and time. She can be greedy with treats and eats separately from other pets. Health & Special Needs Libby is currently on anxiety medication which she needs to take twice a day, though her foster believes she may be able to wean off of them once she settles into a stable forever home. She is still learning how to ride comfortably in the car and gets nervous, doing best when secured in a dog car seat. Location Libby is available for adoption from West Columbia, SC. Please email DeeAnn Jones at  deeann.jones2010@gmail.com  with any questions or complete an adoption application at the button above.   The adoption fee for Libby is $400.00  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 24, 2026, 12:12 pm
