Priscilla (Tennessee) - Terrier Dog for Adoption in VERNON ROCKVL, Connecticut

For weeks, Priscilla quietly watched the world from a safe distance. Then one day her little tail started wagging, her step became lighter, and now she'll happily follow you from room to room just to be part of whatever you're doing. You'll love watching her growing confidence shine through in the smallest moments—a content sigh as she settles beside you on the couch or the cheerful little bounce in her walk when it's time to start the day.

This Terrier for adoption isn't looking for excitement nearly as much as she's looking for togetherness. Priscilla has discovered that being close to her person is one of life's greatest pleasures, and she's never pushy about it. She simply likes to be nearby, quietly keeping you company as you read, watch television, or move through your daily routine. Her calm nature extends to everyone around her. She shares her home peacefully with other dogs, pays little attention to the resident cats, and is so quiet that you may wonder if she knows how to bark at all. As her personality continues to bloom, it's impossible not to smile at the happy little dog emerging each day.

If you're hoping to adopt a rescue dog who would rather curl up beside you than chase nonstop adventure, Priscilla may be exactly who you've been waiting for. Addicus' Legacy Dog Rescue knows this rescue dog for adoption will be a wonderful match for someone who appreciates quiet companionship, gentle affection, and the joy of watching a once-reserved dog truly relax into home life.

Priscilla is available for transport to the Nashville area (Middle Tennessee), serving adopters throughout Tennessee. Tennessee is a large state — our Middle Tennessee transport stop is the ideal hub for adopters statewide. Pickup logistics are arranged at adoption.
