My story

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

Meet Sookie, the sweet and gentle pup with a love for walks and a heart full of joy! Walking is truly her happy place, and she even enjoys a little jog, always wearing a big smile while out and about. With impeccable leash manners, Sookie is calm, composed, and never reactive to other dogs. She's housebroken, crate-trained, and non-destructive, making her a dream to live with. Whether she's left free-roaming at home or relaxing in her crate, Sookie is perfectly content.

Although Sookie is independent, she enjoys pets and cuddles, showing off her sweet (and slightly mischievous) personality daily. She has a cute habit of moving shoes around the house, just one of her charming quirks. And let's not forget those adorable ears-big, expressive, and often flopping over at the top! Sookie is calm and friendly when meeting new people, making her a wonderful companion. If you're looking for a pup with a balanced mix of independence and affection, Sookie is the one for you. Adopt her today, and enjoy a lifetime of smiles, walks, and love
