Meet Indy

What’s wonderful about Indy

Indy is a confident, happy, and curious girl who loves exploring the world—but her favorite place will always be right by your side. She’s a true “Velcro dog,” meaning she forms a deep bond with her people and wants to be part of everything you do. Whether you’re watching TV, cooking dinner, or just moving from one room to another, Indy will be there to make sure you’re never lonely.

Indy loves to live an active lifestyle so will be looking for a family that prioritizes her fitness. She likes to run and play and explore and is well behaved off leash.  

WHERE INDY NEEDS EXTRA SUPPORT

Indy struggles with separation anxiety so is looking for a home where she can be around people most of the time. While she will continue to work on her settling skills, this girl likes to go, and is looking for someone who is ready to adventure with her. 

Indy has also been working on her leash manners but she can be strong and pull on leash when she spots something interesting on a walk. Along with her excitement on leash, Indy can also bark when excited or when someone comes to the door. Indy is continuing to work on all of these behaviours. 

Home Requirements

Someone must be home the majority of the day. As with all PADS dogs that have spent their lives in the full-time company of their raisers, the living situation must accommodate not leaving the dog alone at home for more than 4 hours/day.

A stable home environment is required. This includes regular exercise, grooming, veterinarian care, food, as well as other necessary supplies and equipment.

Released PADS dogs do not have public access, meaning they are not allowed to enter malls, restaurants, hotels, or shops that are not pet friendly. They are only permitted to go to public locations that are pet dog friendly.

Before releasing a dog from our program, PADS evaluates each dog for other working careers. Indy is not eligible for any other working career. Therefore, one of the conditions of adoption is that she may not be used by other agencies for other working roles (some exceptions may apply depending on the reasons of release, such as volunteering as a pet visitation dog).
