Francis is a gentle soul who’s looking for someone patient enough to earn her trust. She’s a sweet girl at heart, but people are still new and a little scary to her — she’s shy and cautious around humans, and it takes time, calm, and consistency for her to warm up. She’s never aggressive; she just prefers to observe from a safe distance until she’s sure you’re someone she can trust.
Where Francis truly shines is with other dogs. She’s wonderfully dog-social and at home in the company of her own kind. If you have a calm, well-balanced dog who can show her the ropes, that’s the fastest path to her heart. She feels safest at a distance, letting friendships build slowly at her own pace.
