My story

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

Meet Ivy, the gentle soul with a heart of gold, waiting to blossom in the right home. Leashing Ivy is a breeze, but her shy nature requires a patient approach, encouraging her gently out of her kennel. Once outside, Ivy's independence shines through, preferring to explore at her own pace. While she may initially keep to herself, Ivy's curiosity sparks when called, though quick movements may startle her. With time and understanding, Ivy builds trust, occasionally seeking comfort from her handler. Although she's a strong puller, Ivy's potential to flourish in a loving and patient environment makes her a promising companion for those willing to take it slow.
