Bio
Meet Snow, a sweet and gentle girl who tends to keep to herself and enjoy her own company. From our observations, she seems polite and tolerant when other dogs approach, though she prefers wandering and exploring on her own terms. Snow has a calm, independent personality and may do well in a quieter home where she can take things at her own pace. Contact us about Snow today!

Snow was alert and aware in her kennel and got up immediately when she saw me. Outside, she showed a highly independent personality, focusing heavily on sniffing and exploring. She was polite and tolerant of handling but preferred to explore rather than seek out affection. She had an independent, low key, friendly demeanor
07/06/26: Eager to Approach
Calm and Relaxed Body
I observed Snow from outside the kennel she shares with another dog. She was standing quietly when I stopped and she began gently wagging her tail. When I spoke to her she wagged her tail a little more quickly. Her body was calm and relaxed. She had a friendly demeanor
