💛 Anna’s Personality
Anna is a gentle, sensitive dog who forms deep bonds over time. She prefers to observe first and warm up at her own pace. While she is not immediately outgoing with strangers, she shows no aggression—she simply needs time and space to feel safe.
Once she trusts you, Anna becomes quietly affectionate. She enjoys staying close to her people and especially loves gentle “booty pats.” She does not enjoy being picked up or sitting on laps, but expresses affection by choosing to be near you. She needed about 1–2 weeks to settle in her foster home, and her confidence continues to grow. She also gets visibly excited when she hears it’s time for a walk.
