Polly — Available ❤️
Polly is still looking for her perfect family, and after her temperament evaluation, I really love the balance we see in this girl.
Polly is a highly confident, highly resilient puppy. She believes in her own abilities, handles stress beautifully, and isn’t easily rattled by new or unexpected things. She is the kind of puppy who is willing to look, smell, investigate, and figure out what something is.
What I especially love is that all of that confidence doesn’t translate into her being pushy with people. Polly is actually very polite in the way she approaches humans. She isn’t immediately jumping all over someone or climbing into their bubble. She gives people space and allows that relationship to develop.
She has a medium level of workability, meaning she’s happy to cooperate and learn with you without being that puppy who is constantly throwing every trick she knows at you hoping you asked for one of them. 😂
Polly is also on the calmer side in her energy level, is comfortable with touch and handling, and showed very little sensitivity to unexpected sounds or sights. She also has a lower prey drive, meaning fast movement isn’t something she feels an overwhelming need to chase—although that is completely separate from play drive, and she absolutely still enjoys being a puppy and playing!
Her human focus is nicely balanced as well. Polly enjoys being with her people and will look to them when she needs them, but she is also confident enough to explore and experience her environment independently before coming back to check in.
She is moderately tenderhearted, so she notices the emotions of the people around her and may want to check in or help, without necessarily taking those emotions completely onto herself.
Overall, Polly gives us a really beautiful combination of confidence, resilience, calmness, independence, and connection to her people. ❤️
Polly is currently AVAILABLE and waiting for the family who feels like hers.
