Thea

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.

My name is Thea, and at 10 months young, I am a delicate hound girl with a gorgeous red coat, a curious nose, and a heart full of devotion. The big shelter world can feel a little overwhelming to a sensitive soul like me, but don’t let my shy exterior fool you—I am a hidden gem who genuinely loves people and wants so badly to connect.

Once I know I’m in a safe circle of friends, my affectionate side begins to glow! Here are a few sweet secrets about me:

  • Gentle Affection Seeker: Even when I feel timid, my heart leads the way! I will softly approach you, look up for reassurance, and lean in for gentle petting on my own terms.
  • Curious Squeaker Fan: Big bouncing balls are a little puzzling right now, but I perked right up at the sound of a squeaker! With a little time and low-pressure play, my puppy spark will blossom.
  • Gentle Snack Manners: I take treats with the softest, gentlest touch. Slow-feeder puzzle bowls and brain games are my favorite ways to enjoy snacks while flexing my clever hound mind.
  • Low-Key Canine Greetings: When meeting other dogs, I am polite and cautious. I definitely appreciate slow, gentle introductions with calm canine pals who match my easygoing, quiet rhythm.

I am looking for a calm, supportive home (and gentle kids 6+) with humans who understand that sensitive pups blossom like flowers with patience, soft encouragement, and cozy blankets.

I would love daily sniffing walks to explore the neighborhood and a cozy retreat to recharge by your side.
