Shadow is about 5 years old, and my sister adopted her when she was around 6 months. Shadow is having a hard time not having any space to run around in at my apartment, so I would love for someone with more yard space to adopt her! Shadow can struggle to maintain her weight from time to time (vets can’t find any cause for it) so when she starts looking a little too skinny, I supplement her dry food with wet food on top. She is superrrrr loving and lives for affection!! But she also knows how to give space and do her own thing when needed. She loves going for walks and exploring. Currently Shadow lives with one other dog (my own pit bull) and they get along swimmingly. She has also lived with small dogs (chiweenies and a shih tzu). Never bitten or fought with any other dogs. Shadow is kennel trained! She also doesn’t bark much at all, or whine ever. Overall Shadow is a sweet girl and just needs more activity and interaction than I can give her right now.
