Jewels came in pregnant and with a rough start to her life. It took the shelter staff a lot of time to win her trust, but now her babies are weaned and adopted, and she's slowly testing the waters of looking for her own safe forever home. She's made friends with a lot of staff and volunteers, and once she trusts you, you're her friend forever.
She may not be the dog who runs up to every new person right away but the people who take the time to know her discover something really special - a gentle, intelligent, and incredibly loving girl who just wants to belong to someone.
Jewels is the kind of dog who will make you laugh playing by herself, happily tossing toys around and entertaining herself. She's adventurous, active and would make an amazing companion for someone who loves walks and having a best friend by their side. Walks are her absolute favourite and after a day of adventures she turns into a total cuddle bug who would happily fall asleep beside you every night.
She also has the most incredible nose - if a treat is dropped, even in the snow, Jewels will find it. Nothing gets past her sniffer!
Jewels is comfortable around other dogs and has made canine friends at the shelter that he enjoys spending time with. If there are resident pets in the home, a meet and greet and gradual introductions are still recommended to help ensure a good match for everyone. She will need someone willing to take their time with her and do multiple meet and greets before taking her home.
