Shylo
Basset Hound x Labrador Retriever Mix | 1 Year Old | spayed Female | 20 lbs
QUICK FACTS: ✔️ Good with other dogs! ✔️ Crate trained! ✔️ Good with shared walls!
✅ Shylo’s journey began with a hoarding case involving the seizure of over 30 dogs and puppies. The conditions she lived in were heartbreaking.
Shylo. Definitely shy and on the down low. 😊
Shylo is a special dog. She wants so badly to trust and love humans, but it can be hard after what she’s gone through. She currently takes some anti-anxiety medication to help her surroundings be a little less scary - I guess I don’t realize how loud our coffee machine is!
Shylo co-exists wonderfully with our 70 lb female pit and 35 lb male hound. She was nervous at first, but after a few days now joins them for a snuggle. As she gets more comfortable, she’s also starting to show signs of wanting to play chase which we are excited to see.
Shylo is low-medium energy at this time and we have yet to hear her make a peep. Shylo prefers to watch you from afar if you are standing, but once seated on the couch she will join you - but just out of reach. She moves a little bit closer everyday and it is melting our hearts.
Since Shylo has not yet discovered the joys of what a leash walk can bring, at this time she’s looking for a home with a fenced in yard or gated area of some sort. This allows her to be consistent with her bathroom routine, which she is working hard at mastering, and gives her the chance to have a bit of a sniffari.
Shylo is looking for a patient, loving home that is excited at the prospect of seeing her grow and flourish. She is gentle, and so darn cute, and we are lucky to be part of her journey to finding her forever people!
