Hi, I’m Calliope. I’m a quiet, chill energy girl who is still learning that the world can be a safe and wonderful place. I’m still a bit shy, and I can be nervous around loud noises, but I’ve been working very hard on being brave. At my core, I’m a very sweet girl, and I’m starting to show my personality!
I really enjoy my comfy dog bed, and one of my favourite things to do is stretch out on my back with all four legs in the air. 🥰 I also like watching the world go by through the window, and dreaming of the day I might feel safe enough to get out there and have adventures. For now though, I’m perfectly happy relaxing in my cozy spot and taking things at my own pace.
I’m still learning about people, so I’m looking for someone patient who understands that trust takes time. My foster family has been so wonderful in helping me make small steps forward toward being the confident dog I know I can be.
I like going outside, but I’m trying hard to process the world when it’s busy without getting overwhelmed. I’ll tell you when that happens by putting on the brakes, so I’m looking for someone patient who will help me to keep building my confidence. My favourite times for walks are when it’s quiet, especially in the evening. I’m not a fan of loud noises, like thunder or even sudden noises around the house. That RRRRIP sound of packing tape coming off a roll? Hard pass. I’ll be over here.
I’m looking for patient person or calm family with a predictable routine who will help me continue coming out of my shell and celebrate my little victories. I’m pretty low maintenance, so a cozy bed (or dare I ask for….two?) and a window for people watching would be my idea of heaven. I’m untested with children, but a home with very small children would probably be too much for me. Toddlers are cute, but terrifying, am I right?!
I have so much love to give. Could you be the one I’m meant to give it all to? If so, please apply for me!🐾❤️
