Gretta - Feist Dog for Adoption in Portland, Maine

Meet Gretta!

She is ten months old, cream and fawn, and those ears are simply not taking questions at this time.

Gretta is a mixed breed with a sleek coat, spectacular radar dish ears, and warm amber eyes that have a lot of feeling behind them. She is sweet and a little shy when she first meets you, as she likes to take things in, get her bearings, decide you are worth trusting and then she is all in. New adventures are absolutely on her list, she just approaches them the same way she approaches everything: thoughtfully, on her own terms, and with her whole heart once she gets there.

Her foster family has given her three nicknames — Dobby, Roo, and Wiggle Butt — and honestly all three are completely accurate. When she plays she hops around like a kangaroo, ears flying, tail going absolutely wild. She is amazing with every dog she meets, wonderful with cats, and loves her people with a quiet devotion that makes you feel genuinely lucky to have earned it. She thrives on routine and will reward you for keeping one by being the most loyal, snuggly, wiggly presence in your home.

Gretta is the kind of dog who takes a little piece of your heart the moment you meet her and keeps it forever. Someone out there is going to call her by all three of those nicknames and mean every single one.
