Description:

Majesty is a sweet, sensitive girl who recently found herself back at the shelter after struggling with anxiety in a home setting. Change can be hard on dogs, and Majesty is no exception — she’s the kind of pup who truly thrives on connection and consistency with her people. Since returning, we’ve spent time getting to know her better through dog meet-and-greets. Majesty has shown a friendly, polite demeanor with other dogs and tends to prefer calmer, more low-key companions. She’s a quiet player and has done well around toys and treats in the shelter without showing resource guarding, though adopters should be mindful to give her her own space and belongings to help her feel secure. Majesty is incredibly loving, cuddly, and deeply bonded to her humans. She doesn’t enjoy being left alone and would do best in a home where someone has more time to spend with her. Crate training would be a great next step for Majesty — having a cozy, safe place of her own can help her feel more at ease when you’re away and prevent unwanted “accidents.” The good news? Majesty has a lot going for her! She appears to be potty trained, walks beautifully on leash, and already knows cues like sit, down, and shake. She loves learning and would likely pick up new skills quickly. She’s also done great with handling and, while not technically a lap dog, she absolutely loves being held. Majesty isn’t overly active, but she’ll thrive with a balance of mental enrichment and gentle physical activity. She’s a sensitive soul who just wants to be close to her people. Anxiety can be tough — especially in a shelter environment — but with patience, stability, and love, it can be managed. Given time to settle in, Majesty is sure to become a loyal, devoted companion.
