Esme is a spunky, affectionate girl whose personality has no end. She loves to play with stuffed animals, chew her toys, follow around her humans, sit outside the shower to make sure you’re safe, and snuggle with you in bed at the end of the day. She is fully potty trained and can be left alone in the home when you are gone. She would be with best with older children as she likes to jump and play a little rough when she gets too excited.

Esme is dog friendly. However, at this time she will need to be placed in a home without another dog as she just started heartworm treatment and needs restrictive exercise for a couple months. She will need a patient family that is willing to help her get through her last steps of treatment.

Esme is a wonderful, sweet companion who will keep you laughing. She is looking for that perfect family to welcome her home.

*no cats-she will chase them
