Drea is a very sweet, very nervous girl who is learning that the world can be a safe place. She wants so badly to trust, but right now she needs time, consistency, and understanding to get there.
Drea will need at least a month to settle into a new home—and even after that, she’ll continue to need an adopter who truly understands that progress for her comes in small, meaningful steps. She’s not a “warm up on day one” kind of dog, but she is a dog who will quietly bloom when given the chance.
Because of her anxiety, a securely fenced yard is a must. This isn’t optional—it’s for her safety and peace of mind. Likewise, Drea absolutely needs at least one other confident, friendly dog in the home. She takes her cues from other dogs, and having a calm canine role model helps her feel brave when humans feel overwhelming.
