Meet Panini
When I was rescued, I was painfully malnourished, infested with fleas, and absolutely terrified of EVERYTHING. For weeks, I would not venture out of my crate for any reason other than to use a potty pad. I have made a lot of progress in my foster home, but I still have a long way to go and have some requirements for my forever home.
My ideal forever home is calm with adults only or older kids who will understand and respect my needs. I'd love a friendly and patient small or medium-sized canine friend in my home to show me the ropes and help me continue to build my play skills. A securely fenced yard is a must because I'm currently afraid of being on a leash. I'm also not ready to be picked up, but with your help, I can get from place to place in a travel crate or a dog stroller. Please understand that I need a person or family who will be loving and patient as I continue to gain confidence. I might not be super snuggly right now or a lap dog, but that doesn't mean I won't ever be.
Some things you will love about me are my smiley, sweet personality and the excitement I have when you come home. When you start seeing me come out of my shell, you'll love watching me hop around like a bunny and make cute little sounds. I'm generally lower energy but have my bouncy, playful spurts! I've begun to occasionally enjoy relaxing on the couch with the rest of my foster family. I'm mostly potty-trained and know how to use pee pads if you're gone a while.
My foster mom says I have blossomed into such a fun, sweet, and funny girl, and I can't wait to show my future family what a lovable little stringbean am.
If you think we would be a good match, please fill out an application for me, and my foster mom will be in touch so you can learn more about me and we can find a time to meet!
