About Darcy

Darcy is a 4-year-old Sheltiepoo whose owner is looking for a new home for him due to her changing mobility needs. His owner recently suffered a knee injury, and Darcy's energy level has become challenging to manage safely during walks.

Darcy has always been walked on a leash and has never been outside without one. His current home does not have a fenced yard, so a new home with a secure area where he can safely exercise may be beneficial.

Darcy may be adopted with his crate, leash, collar, food, and a basket of toys, giving his new family some of the familiar items he is accustomed to.

He is looking for a loving home that can provide him with the exercise, attention, and activity appropriate for his energy level.
