Are you right for Shadow?

Shadow is a lovely girl who has a lot of energy so would like an active family who will be willing to give her the mental and physical exercise that she needs. Shadow loves having her humans around to keep her company so will need to have someone around for her throughout the day. She will need a family that will be dedicated to her ongoing training and to continue to give her positive outlets therefore she will be best suited to living with older teens who are aged 16 and above. Shadow would prefer to be the only dog in the home but could have the occasional walking buddy when out on her adventures. Adopters will need to come and meet Shadow a few times at the centre before taking her home.

Is Shadow right for you?

Shadow is a fun girl who enjoys playing with toys, especially raggy games with her humans. This is a really good outlet for her which her adopters should continue to do with her. She can be worried by new faces so will need to have adopters who will introduce her to new people away from the home so that she will be able to be comfortable with anyone coming into her house. If you think you could be the one for Shadow then don't forget to give her a favourite.
