Meet Shiloh

Meet Shiloh, the sweet, intelligent, and affectionate pup who’s ready to find a home where she can thrive! Shiloh wandered up to her Texan foster family while they were out on a walk.  She was then brought into rescue, and she’s been blossoming into a loving companion ever since. Shiloh is great with children, other dogs, and adults. Though she hasn’t been around cats her gentle and friendly nature suggests she’d likely do well, but we still recommend slow intros, and making sure any resident kitties have a safe space to retreat to if needed. Shiloh loves being close to her humans—whether it’s following you from room to room, napping nearby, or soaking up belly rubs. She lives for praise and thrives on affirmations, often preferring them over treats. This clever girl is leash trained, crate trained, and eager to please. She’s learning quickly—she even figured out how to ring the bells by the back door to go outside!  She is mostly potty trained, and a consistent schedule of feeding/outside time will help to reinforce those good potty training habits that she has already formed.  While she’s made great strides with her leash manners, further reinforcement of those good manners will need to occur in her new home here in MN as well. Shiloh’s daily routine is a balance of activity and relaxation. She enjoys two 30-minute walks and gets her energy out with playtime and attention. Afterward, she’s happy to nap in a sunny spot, the middle of the floor, or her kennel. She’s a self-paced eater who seems to prefer snacking throughout the day rather than eating her meals all at once. Though Shiloh is affectionate and eager to please, she does vocalize her.. shall we say displeasure. Especially when kenneled or left outside alone for too long. She may vocalize her feelings with howls, but regular exercise, mental stimulation, and a little patience will allow her to become accustomed to her new surroundings/routine. At night, she sleeps best in her kennel if it’s placed in the same room as her humans. Shiloh would thrive in a home with someone who can dedicate time to her exercise and engagement needs. She’s an intelligent, gentle, and goofy girl who will repay your love with loyalty, cuddles, and plenty of laughs. If you’re looking for a companion who’ll adore you endlessly, Shiloh might just be your perfect match! Go and fill out that adoption application today.. she honestly can't wait to meet you!
