Darcy

Meet Darcy! This sweet, playful girl was found as a stray by animal control and brought to the shelter, so her past is a bit of a mystery. What we do know is that Darcy is a friendly and affectionate dog who loves people and gets along well with other dogs-though she does need a little space and time to feel comfortable, especially if she's feeling cornered or pressured. Darcy is still a young dog with a lot of energy! She loves staying active and would be a great match for an adopter who enjoys going on walks, playing fetch, or spending time outdoors. While she may be a bit shy at first, once she bonds with you, she'll quickly become your loyal and loving companion. UPDATE: Darcy has been diagnosed with Addison's Disease, a condition that requires lifelong medication in the form of a monthly injection. With her treatment plan in place, Darcy's weight has stabilized, and she's back to being her happy, energetic self. Her electrolytes will need to be monitored periodically, but with proper care and medication, she's thriving! If you're an experienced adopter looking for a sweet, energetic dog who just needs a little extra care, Darcy could be the perfect match for you. With the right home and love, she will be a wonderful addition to your family. A little about Addison's Disease: Addison's Disease in dogs occurs when the adrenal glands stop functioning properly, preventing them from producing the hormones they need. This can affect the dog's stress response and electrolyte balance, and can be caused by a number of factors, including injury, tumors, medication, diseases, or immune-mediated disease.
