I'm ready to meet YOU!

Meet Goldleaf, a wiggly, gentle girl who shines once she feels safe. She loves exploring, lounging on soft blankets, and staying close to her people. Goldleaf shows signs of being potty trained, knows “sit,” rides calmly in the car once settled, and appreciates a little encouragement when meeting new faces, but she warms up with patience and reassurance.
Goldleaf bonds deeply and thrives when she can be near her person—she’s at her very best when included in daily life and routines.
She also has a playful streak, enjoying toys, snuffle mats, antlers, and backyard time with bursts of youthful energy. If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal companion who blossoms with structure, closeness, and affection, Goldleaf may be the perfect match.
