About
Due to the current situation with the COVID-19 (Corona) virus, in-person home visits are not possible at this time. Since this is a very important part of finding the best home for our dogs, we are not accepting any applications from first-time pet owners, applicants who have not had a pet in the past 3 years, or applicants who cannot furnish vet records. We hope you understand and that you will consider applying to adopt once restrictions have been lifted.
I’m Ivy and I’ve been quite busy the last few months. I’m about 1 1/2 years old. I’m some sort of retriever, and I am beautiful! I weight about 40 pounds and I’m super friendly with other dogs and kids. I gave birth on 2/22 and then my owners surrendered my pups and me to the shelter on 3/15. DFW Cocker picked us up on 3/19 and we were in vetting until 3/30 when we moved in with a foster family. On 4/8 I moved in with another foster family because my pups didn’t want to stop nursing and it was hard to keep them off me. I got spayed on 4/20 and I was a wonderful patient. On 5/3 I moved into what I thought was going to be my furever home and as much as the adults and kids liked me, I still have some puppy habits and they weren’t able to give me the time to train me and I was spending too much time in a crate.
I do like to eat, but I’m not food aggressive. I’m happy to eat my dry dog food that my foster sisters eat with no complaints. I will check out anything and everything you’ve left on your counters since I’m tall enough to reach them. I still have puppy in me so I don’t know the difference between a chew toy and your favorite shoes. I know to do my business outside and use the doggy door and if you leave me on tile floors all day, I won’t have an accident, but I have had accidents on the carpet.
I am definitely ready for my furever home and will make a great pet, but I need a family who will be willing to work with me. I’m a very sweet girl. Won’t you please consider making me part of your family?
