Female | 3.5 years old | 37 pounds | Low-medium energy | Hasn’t met kids or cats | Positive interactions with dogs | From Mexico | Fostered in Toronto | Goofy and gaining confidence | Affectionate
Meet NAIROBI. A low-key yet social gal pal who enjoys spending time with her humans and dogs alike. Sure, she’s a little on the hesitant side at first, but she’s new here, and who can blame her?! Giving her time and space to warm up, as well as advocating for her, will help her gain confidence in you as her handler and herself as she learns to embrace new friends.
With her calm approach to life, NAIROBI only occasionally gets the zoomies. More often than not, she likes to fill her days with time to lounge by the window and time to receive affection. Belly rubs, please! Of course, NAIROBI is pleased to attend a few walks throughout the day, typically a long walk and a couple of shorter walks to stretch her legs and get her activity in.
As her foster knows, access to quieter areas nearby is key if NAIROBI is to be living downtown. She’s working on developing her confidence in the city and is slowly but surely getting comfortable in everyday scenarios like using the elevator and passing other dogs and people. Also, this gal does like her space, so living as a solo dog could work well for her. Otherwise, having another dog with a similar energy level in the home could help her feel more confident in her surroundings.
