She arrived at the shelter with several other dogs and some puppies, and staff believe she may have been the big sister of the group. Since then, Shyla has been taking things at her own pace, slowly coming out of her shell and letting more of her personality shine through each day.

She is curious, eager, kennel trained, heartworm negative, and one thing is already very clear: Shyla absolutely loves other dogs. A home with a friendly canine companion could be a great fit for her and may help her continue building confidence.

Shyla is still young and has so much life ahead of her. What she needs most is someone patient enough to give her time to settle in, feel safe, and learn that she is finally home.

If you have room in your heart for a gentle dog who just needs a little patience and a lot of love, consider meeting Shyla. She may need a little time to trust—but she has plenty of sweetness waiting on the other side.
