Meet Pumpkin, a young dog with a heart full of sweetness. Her gentle spirit shines through her timid demeanor, and her curiosity about the world around her is palpable. Pumpkin is alert, yet skittish, her ears perking up at the slightest sound. Her insecurities can make her appear wary, and her nervous nature is evident in her submissive posture. But don`t be fooled, this shy canine has a lot to offer. She weighs 43 pounds, and her curiosity makes her an excellent companion for exploring the neighborhood because she walks well on a leash. We don`t know yet if she is house trained. She was well-behaved around her finder`s children and six dogs but her timidity is leading us to require that children in the home be at least nine years old to avoid scaring her. Pumpkin`s gentle and submissive nature makes her the perfect pet for a calm, patient owner who can provide a loving, reassuring environment. With time, Pumpkin will blossom into a confident, devoted companion. Adopt Pumpkin and give her the chance to fill your life with her sweet, gentle love. (tw 10/27/2024)
