Plum is a 2-year-old Beagle/Pit mix and a bright, affectionate dog with tons of potential. At 42 pounds, she's the ultimate cuddlebug with a sincere love of blankets. If you hold one open, she'll burrow right underneath for cozy snuggles!She's house-trained, crate-trained for bedtime, and incredibly smart. Honestly, she might just be the future valedictorian of obedience school! Plum is very tuned in to her humans and loves learning what you want from her. She'll be happiest in a detached home where she can enjoy a quieter environment without close neighboring walls.While Plum has experienced some anxiety in her foster home, she's made significant progress with the help of new medication. Even more encouraging, when she stayed with another family, they described her as "calm and chill" and were surprised to hear she'd ever needed to see a veterinary behaviorist! We think she may simply thrive in a quieter home with less outside noise than a busy city environment.Plum loves training and playtime, but she's outgrown that nonstop puppy energy and is best described as a medium-energy dog. She enjoys having opportunities to learn, explore, and interact with her people, then settling in for some cozy downtime. These days, she'd much rather have something satisfying to chew on than chase a ball.Plum is looking for a very specific forever home where she can truly succeed. She needs to be the only pet, so no cats or other dogs. Because she's an enthusiastic, physical dog who expresses both her playfulness and affection with her whole body, she'd also do best in a home without small children. A detached home is important so she isn't sharing walls with neighbors, helping her enjoy the quiet environment where she thrives.With the right home willing to guide her, provide structure, and offer a peaceful environment, Plum is sure to blossom into an amazing lifelong companion.If you are interested in Plum, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - https://pethavenmn.org/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/The adoption fee is $450.
