Arwen

Arwen is a sweet, shy girl with a big puppy heart who is ready to find the family who will show her just how wonderful life can be. At first, Arwen may be a little unsure of new people and new experiences, but beneath that shy exterior is a gentle girl who is simply waiting for someone she can trust. She's looking for a patient family who will give her the time and encouragement she needs to come out of her shell and discover her confidence. Arwen is still learning what it means to be a dog, and she needs a family who is excited to teach her! She'll need guidance, consistency, positive reinforcement, and plenty of opportunities to experience all the good things a dog's life has to offer-walks, playtime, cozy naps, new adventures, and, most importantly, unconditional love. Arwen doesn't need perfection. She needs patience, kindness, and someone willing to show her what love feels like. Give this sweet girl the chance to grow into her confidence, and you may discover that watching her blossom is one of the greatest gifts of all!

Arwen can live with older children, other dogs and has the potential to live with cats!
