She’s a rescue pup with a big personality—spunky, sassy, and full of energy. She absolutely loves the beach, running around, and playing with other dogs.
She can be a little anxious when meeting new people, but once she warms up to you she becomes the sweetest, most affectionate girl. She loves to run, exercise, and play tug-of-war.
She’s also very loyal and protective of her people and her home, and she thrives in an environment where she can feel safe and loved.
