Meet Izzy, a mature woman who’s been on a journey to find her forever family. She’s more than ready to settle down in just the right home. She certainly knows how to be content: lounging on the couch, cuddling if she feels like it, and keeping a slower pace. Izzy would be just as happy chewing on her ball as other dogs might be chasing it.
Izzy loves squirrels and possums and other wildlife, so it’s best for her to be more of a homebody rather than going on outdoor adventures. A yard, and perhaps a home all her own, will let her have her space and maintain her senior pace. Stairs are not easy for Izzy, so she needs an extra dose of patience and understanding to accommodate her lifestyle.
At eight years old, this 40-pound pointer mix enjoys children and adults equally, and might even share her surroundings with another bigger dog. She’ll walk on a leash, but not for great distances. She prefers an afternoon matinee on the couch to an outing at the dog park. At this point in her life, she’s hoping to find a family who loves her for who she is and give her the happiness and quiet she’s always wanted.
