PAISLEY - TERRIER / MIXED (LONG COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (long coat). Meet Paisley...10 Pounds of Pure Joy! This adorable little nugget was found as a stray, and with shelters in her community completely full, her finders reached out to Worthy Dog for help. We were more than happy to say yes. Paisley is now being fostered by Renee, a retiree with two dogs, and she’s quickly settled into her new pack. Renee describes her as “a total sweetheart” and shared this wonderful update: FOSTER MOM UPDATE (10/8/25): “Paisley is awesome! She’s young, sassy, and gets along great with both of my dogs. She’s respectful of my senior and has daily zoomies in the yard with Ryder. He hides in the bushes, she finds him, and off they go running. They’re so cute together! They also love cuddling on the couch. She’s still new and can get a little jealous if I pet Ryder and not her, but she’ll just crawl into my lap for her own attention. She’s housetrained, crate-trained, and her leash skills are good. We’ve started daily walks, and the only challenge so far has been the neighbor’s chickens. She didn’t like them and barked! Like most Terriers, she’s a bit of an alert barker. She’ll bark when someone comes to the door or if she hears a strange noise, but she settles quickly. She’s not over the top, just probably not ideal for an apartment setting. = Paisley loves sitting on my lap but is also content beside me. She’s affectionate, confident, and cuddly. She’s met my grandsons (ages 6, 8, and 11 years old) and did great with them. She even learned her place in the food-bowl lineup and patiently waits her turn, then licks the others clean when they’re done!” *********** Paisley will make an excellent family dog and would love to have a playful pup companion in her new home.
