Bea
Bea is a bright, bouncy girl with a playful spirit. She’s affectionate and loves being close to her people, often seeking reassurance with enthusiastic greetings (and the occasional bouncy jump!). She can feel overwhelmed in new environments and will need a calm, patient home to help her settle.
Bea enjoys her toys, happily entertaining herself by tossing them around, and walks nicely alongside other dogs. She does struggle being left alone and can become anxious, so any time on her own will need to be introduced very gradually with plenty of support and consistency. With gradual training, and understanding owners who can help build her confidence, she’s sure to blossom into a loyal and loving companion.
