Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Meet Ziva, a sweet, sensitive 5-month-old terrier mix with a heart full of potential and a little extra shyness to work through. Ziva is like a hidden gem—quiet, reserved, and still learning to trust the world around her. But with a patient and understanding family, this gentle girl will shine brighter every day, revealing the loving, playful companion she’s destined to be.
Ziva would thrive in a calm, low-pressure home where she can take her time to build confidence and feel safe. She’s not the type of pup who will jump into new situations headfirst, but with a little encouragement and consistency, she’ll start to bloom. Her ideal family will be one that has experience working with shy dogs or is ready to take the time to help her grow. Ziva responds well to calm and steady guidance—she’s a quick learner when she feels secure.
Once Ziva starts to trust you, you’ll see a whole new side to this sweet girl. She’s a snuggler at heart, and when she feels safe, she’ll reward you with those soft, sweet moments of affection that only a dog who truly trusts can give. She’s got a playful side too, and with time, her confidence will grow, allowing her to show you just how joyful and loving she really is.
