My story

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

Hi humans, Zelda here. I'm on a quest to find my forever family. I'm a young love bug who can be a little shy around new people, but I warm up quickly, especially if you're down to play fetch and other games with me. I've lived with other dogs and young kids before, and I've thrived in that kind of pack. If a playful princess like me sounds like a good addition to your family, I can't wait to meet you!

A team member says, "Zelda is the sweetest pup. She has a unique brindle coat and soulful eyes that make her a cutie, but her personality is what really shines. She's a shy gal at first, but we spent time in her room working on commands and just hanging out. She knows 'sit,' and we're working on 'paw.' She's very treat-motivated and was very patient and calm, and she eventually sat beside me for extra pets. I know she'll blossom once she finds a forever family who can give her lots of love and encouragement."
