Merida
Personality Color: green
Green dogs are a bit more shy and sensitive, maybe a little anxious, but are sweet and they try hard. These dogs will flourish with patient adopters providing gentle guidance and confidence building. They are likely too timid for active homes with children, and would do best in a calm, quiet home getting the TLC they deserve.- adult

Bio data
I’m trying to be brave like Merida in the movie but it can be hard sometimes! I might take a little time to warm up, so please go slow with me at first. Giving me treats helps a lot because that tells me you’re a friend! I also love when people use baby talk to make me feel more comfortable. I like to crawl in your lap and walking close to you so I feel reassured. And once I know you a little better, I’ll give you lots of wiggles!! I’d benefit from continued confidence building, gentle affection, and positive experiences. Come visit me today!
Kids: 10+, may be worried at first
Dogs: Tolerated sniffing, nervous about fast movements and loud noises, slow intros with gentle dogs
