Ladybird

My story

🐾 Meet LadybirdQuiet Soul Seeking a Gentle LandingLadybird came to us in the middle of the night, after her owner was unexpectedly arrested and there was no one left to care for her. Officers brought her to ACC, and she arrived trembling, unsure, and completely alone. At just 3 years old, this medium-sized sweetheart is trying her best to navigate an overwhelming world-and she's looking for a patient, loving adopter who can help her rediscover safety and trust.🏡 My Ideal HomeLadybird is searching for a calm, quiet home where she can take her time settling in. A routine, peaceful environment without a lot of hustle and bustle will help her feel safe. She'd do best with someone who understands that the best relationships are built slowly-and that every small win is worth celebrating.👶 Good with Kids?Ladybird should not live with very young children. She may be open to older, respectful kids who can give her space and allow her to approach on her own terms.🐕 Good with Other Dogs?Ladybird has shown fearful body language around other dogs in the care center and may be uncomfortable in social settings with them. She'd likely thrive as the only pet.🦮 Leash MannersShe walks gently on leash but may dart away from loud noises or unfamiliar sights. With a secure harness and lots of reassurance, she'll build confidence over time.🩺 Overall HealthLadybird is a healthy 46-pound pup. She is not yet spayed but has been vaccinated, microchipped, and treated for common preventives.🧠 Behavior Determination: Level 2Ladybird is shy and anxious in the shelter environment. While she allows gentle handling, she often keeps her distance and watches the world with wide, uncertain eyes. With time and positive reinforcement, we believe she can blossom into a devoted companion.🎉 One Fun FactEven when she's unsure, Ladybird still leans gently against a kind hand, like she remembers what it's like to feel safe-and is hoping for it again.💸 Adoption Fee: $75Ladybird is ready to trade in her uncertainty for comfort. If you're someone who believes in second chances and quiet triumphs, come meet this tender-hearted girl. She may be timid now, but with your help, she could learn to fly. 🐞 Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 48 Age: 3yrs 2mths 4wks
