Adopt Cassia a Black Flat-Coated Retriever / Mixed dog in Newport, KY (41021560)

Location:

Newport, KY

Description:

Introducing Cassia, who seems to prefer the name Stella. She is a flat-coat retriever mix, solid black with a subtle white spot on her chest. She’s 55 pounds at 11 months old , tall with long legs. And she is a total sweetheart. She has had a hard life so far but is ready for all the love she deserves. Life as a stray and in shelters has left her very timid. It takes her longer to accept new people and feel at ease in new environments. But once she decides someone is safe, she gives all her love. She adores her people and seems to think she’s a lap dog. But even at nearly a year old, she is very much a puppy, and an untrained one at that. She must have an adopter who will be patient with her, and get her the training she needs to succeed. She’s eager to learn and wants to please. She has been very good with her house training and had very few accidents. She loves her kennel and sleeps quietly all night after a protest or two. She walks well on leash except when startled by something unexpected. She loves cats and plays gently with them. She has so far been reluctant to engage with our four rowdy dogs. But she lived with 20 dogs at one time. She will need a fenced yard to do zoomies in, and she must be on a secure leash when not in a secure yard. Traffic noise will spook her, especially sirens. But with patience and love, she can overcome her fears and live her best life. She has lots of love to give.
