Shelby came to us after she was being given away at a local park. While we don’t know everything about her past, we do know one thing for sure, this sweet girl has so much love to give and deserves a family who will love her just as much in return.
Shelby is an absolute love bug with the sweetest personality. She loves attention, enjoys being close to her people, and will happily soak up all the belly rubs you’re willing to give. She’s not particularly interested in toys, but she does have a soft spot for a good squeaky ball!
Shelby isn’t asking for much in life. She just wants someone to love her, a cozy place to call home, and the comfort of knowing she’ll never have to worry about being given away again.
This precious girl has so much love waiting for the right person. All she needs now is someone to give her the forever home she deserves.
Could Shelby be the missing piece of your family?
