Nana - Mixed Breed and Black Mouth Cur Dog for Adoption in Austin, Texas

Banana Cream is a shy-at-first sweetheart with a playful puppy hiding just beneath the surface. New situations can make her uncertain, but once she has a little time to settle in, she begins to show a much sillier side—play bows, soft puppy mouthing, and all. Her first shelter playgroup followed that same pattern. Banana Cream initially sat quietly with her tail tucked and was uncomfortable when dogs approached too quickly. As the session went on, she relaxed, began throwing play bows, and eventually joined fellow shelter pups Polly Pocket and Dakota for chase play. She was comfortable enough afterward to be paired with a doggy roommate.Banana Cream is looking for people who understand that confidence doesn’t always appear instantly. She does best when she isn’t rushed and is allowed to investigate at her own pace. Once she decides she feels safe, she can be playful, engaging, and downright goofy.She has potential to live with a well-matched dog, particularly one who won’t overwhelm her with an intense greeting. Ask shelter staff about scheduling a meet-and-greet with your resident dogs.For an adopter who enjoys watching a shy dog blossom into herself, Banana Cream could be an incredibly rewarding companion. Come meet her today! Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: Black Weight: 43lbs Age: 1yrs 3mths 2wks Animal has been Spayed
