Meet Laurel a 1 1/2 year old cattle dog heeler mix. She is the sweetest dog in the shelter but takes time to warm up. She is shy with new people but with a calm and patient hand she does come around. Laurel has met with some of the dogs at the shelter but she is so nervous that she just tries to get a way from them, we would suggest that she is with a confident dog who can be patient and leave her alone while she adjust. Laurel is also nervous around cats so when they hit at her she will sit next to you. Laurel would like a calm quiet home as loud noises scare her. Take this pretty girl on a walk and you will certainly fall in love.Give the shelter a call at (574) 267-3008 or email them at info@awlwarsaw.com if you have any questions about me!
