Angel is a beautiful, affectionate girl with a sensitive side. She’s a little shy around strangers, so she’ll need patient owners who are happy to take things slowly and allow her to build trust in her own time. But once Angel feels safe, her affectionate personality shines through – she loves nothing more than gentle contact, reassurance, and spending time with her trusted people.
Angel would love a home in a quiet area, where her walks can be in peaceful locations away from busy roads, lots of people, and overwhelming noise. Traffic, passing dogs, and unfamiliar people can make her very worried, so she’ll need her new owners to help create distance and advocate for her when she feels unsure.

When meeting other dogs, Angel can be a little tense, so she’d benefit from calm, controlled introductions. She seems to have a soft spot for male dogs, though!
