My story

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

**Meet Philomena - The Perfect Mix of Adventure and Cuddles!**

Philomena is a fun-loving, adventurous dog who's ready to join an active family and share all of her affection with you. When she first hits the leash, she can be a bit strong and eager, so some leash training will be helpful to help her fully settle into walks. But don't worry-once she's comfortable and settled, she becomes a calm and wonderful walking companion. Whether you're hitting the trails for a hike or strolling through the neighborhood, Philomena is sure to enjoy every step of the journey with you.

Affectionate and friendly, Philomena has a heart full of love and is eager to share it with her humans. She's always ready for cuddles and will happily rest by your side after an adventure. She has a gentle nature that makes her a joy to be around, and her loving personality will melt your heart in no time.

Philomena also excels on car rides, where she's calm and relaxed-sometimes even taking a nap during the ride. Whether you're heading out for a weekend getaway or just running errands, she's the perfect passenger.

An ideal match for an adventurous owner, Philomena loves getting outdoors and staying active, but she also knows how to enjoy the quieter moments. She's the kind of dog who's happy to go on a hike in the morning and then cuddle up with you on the couch for a lazy Sunday afternoon.

If you're looking for a dog who will keep up with your adventures and be a loving companion for those peaceful, cozy moments at home, Philomena is the one for you! She's ready to share her gentle spirit and adventurous heart with the right family.

To meet Philomena, come to Guilford County Animal Services between 12 and 4 any day except Tuesday!
