My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My name is Dandy and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m 6 years old and came to my foster home here in Troy, MO, from a commercial breeding facility where I made puppies. I had never lived in a home before, but I like it! One of my favorite things is going for walks. I’m an excellent leash walker and very polite. I don’t pull or try to chase birds or squirrels when we’re out on the trails. I like car rides and road trips too! Foster mom says I’d make a good traveling companion. New things still startle me and sometimes I get nervous, but I’m adjusting. I’m a timid, quiet girl and foster mom says I am very sweet. I get along well with the other dog and cats here. In fact, my best friend here is Freckles the cat. We like to snuggle. I’ve also learned that I like human attention. I like to be around my foster family and I’ll boop my foster mom with my nose or paw when I want some pets or scritches. I sleep with them in bed sometimes (when I’m not snuggling with my cat friend). I’m a good girl when left alone at home. I stay in the bedroom for 6 or 8 hours with no problems or in my crate if needed. I’m not really interested in toys, but I like to chew. I don’t chew on things that don’t belong to me, but sometimes I will chew on my harness, leash or brush. My perfect forever home will have another friendly dog or cat to be my friend and help me be brave. I don’t need a fenced yard as long as you like to take walks with me. I’m good with kids, but my forever home will want to be very careful about opening doors and gates so I don’t get loose. I tend to dash to the door whenever it looks like someone is coming or going, because I love being outside so much. I’m a healthy girl – spayed and vaccinated – and I weigh just under 30 lbs. If you live in the Midwest and want a sweet, quiet girl to be by your side on all of life’s adventures, then I’m your girl!
