Notes from Community Animal Welfare Society

Hi, I'm Wink! I'm a one-year-old pup, and I'm ready to find my forever home. I'm goofy, energetic, lovable, and full of personality—with a busy little nose that is always on the hunt for snacks! My kind of company: I absolutely love other dogs and would thrive in a home with a friendly canine companion. Cats and other small, furry critters, however, aren't for me. A little about my personality: I'm shy with new people and need time to feel safe. Patience, gentle interactions, and positive reinforcement are essential. I'm worth getting to know, but I need a family willing to let me settle in at my own pace. I'm a smart cookie! I'm learning basic commands, walking nicely on a leash, and am housebroken. I'm very food motivated, so snuffle mats, puzzle toys, and lick mats keep my clever brain busy. Let's go adventuring! I enjoy long walks, dog parks, and hikes. I also love bones, crinkle toys, and disassembling furry toys. Every girl needs a hobby!️ Snuggles are my specialty. After bursts of puppy energy, I love lounging on comfy furniture, snoozing while you read or watch TV, and inviting myself onto your bed. My ideal home: I prefer hanging out with my people. I need companionship, exercise, enrichment, and appropriate chew toys. I can get into mischief when bored, and shoes left lying around are fair game in my puppy brain. I wouldn't do well if left alone all day. I'm recently spayed, thriving on fresh dog food, and awaiting my Embark DNA results. Stay tuned! I’m 21 pounds and 15” to the withers. Could you be my person? I'm looking for a patient, dog-savvy family with time to help me build confidence. I may not be an instant social butterfly, but with kindness, consistency, and time, I have so much potential. If you appreciate a quirky little adventure buddy who doubles as a couch snuggler, I might just be your girl! Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis.
