Meet Shelby! A shy, sweet Lurcher looking for a calm and understanding home.
Shelby is a gentle, sensitive girl who is looking for a quiet, adult-only home where she can continue to build her confidence and feel safe. Having come in as a stray, Shelby likely has never experienced life in a home before, so everything is new to her. While she may be nervous at first, Shelby is a very sweet girl who is just waiting for the right person to offer her the love, patience, and understanding she needs. She loves quiet walks where she can enjoy her time out in the countryside.
