Shilah

My story

Shilah is quiet, gentle, easy, loving and smart Shilah has no qualities that need to be worked on Meet Ms. Shilah, a gentle spirit whose story begins in abandonment. On the streets for a while, Shilah made her way instinctively to the kindest person who would help her feel safe and loved. She was very timid at first, but cautiously trusted more each day. Foster offered just what she needed; kindness, nourishment, and safety. One day she decided it was time to go inside and meet everyone. Each tentative step moved her towards healing and since that time Shilah has blossomed. Shilah is a Shepherd/Catahoula mix. She is 8 years old, but don’t let that discourage you. This sweet girl has lots of life and love to give! She is spayed and HW negative. She has no health issues, other than some arthritis in her back legs. A good joint supplement has helped this tremendously. Shilah enjoys the company of her four housemates, their daily walk and a good run in an open field. She is not a barker, but instead will let you know if she needs something with a gentle howl or a paw asking you to listen. She likes retiring early for the night and laying her head on your knee for a pet. Foster says of Shilah, 'she is a sweet, super easy girl who’s very well behaved, social, and doesn’t have an ounce of aggression towards any person or thing'. If you are looking for a quiet girl to lay next to you or a gentle dog to add to your family, please reach out to meet this gem. Shilah would love a family who will offer cuddles, belly rubs and a happy home. Located in Houston, TX. Please contact nod2016dog@gmail.com for more information on this special girl.
