Description:

Meet Sassy!Personality: Shy Snuggle SeekerSassy is a lovely pup with a gentle spirit and a soft, sweet personality. She can be a little shy when meeting new people or exploring new places, but with a calm approach and a little time to look around, her true personality begins to shine.During a walk and some time in the play yard, Sassy started to relax and enjoy herself. After sniffing around and taking in her surroundings, she happily climbed right into a lap to soak up pets and affection. Once she feels comfortable, Sassy shows just how much she enjoys closeness and being near her person.Sassy has also shown a playful side. When she met another dog through a fence, she greeted them with playful bows and curious interest. After that interaction, she noticeably relaxed and became more confident.Fun Fact: Once she warms up, Sassy believes laps are the perfect place to sit—yes, even if she’s a little bigger than a typical “lap dog!”Sassy is a sweet, affectionate girl who enjoys gentle companionship, exploring the world at her own pace, and settling in close for cuddles.
