Posie is a big, lovable cuddle bug who hasn't quite figured out what personal space means - and honestly, she hopes her new family won't mind! This affectionate girl wants nothing more than to be close to her people and will happily snuggle up by your side (or on top of you) any chance she gets.
Posie is also an active dog who would thrive in a home where she can get lots of exercise, playtime, and adventures. Because she has shown signs of separation anxiety, she's hoping to find a family that can spend plenty of time with her and include her in their daily activities.
If you're looking for a loyal, snuggly companion who will shower you with love and always be by your side, Posie might just be the perfect match.
