Libby

Meet Libby!

Libby is a sweet, loving 4-year-old girl who’s ready to find her forever family. She has plenty of the wonderful traits people love in a German Shorthaired Pointer, along with her own unique personality that makes her extra special.

Exercise & Activity
Libby is an active dog who gets daily exercise and thrives when she’s outdoors. She currently enjoys a 3-mile walk through steep hills every day, plus a weekly free run on a 10-acre ranch where she can stretch her legs until she’s completely tuckered out. She’ll need an adopter who can give her consistent exercise and space to enjoy her GSP energy.

Leash Manners
On leash, Libby has made great progress. With a gentle lead, she walks nicely and doesn’t pull as much as she used to. She’s learning to manage her excitement around wildlife—she’s calmer with deer and turkeys now, though squirrels still get her attention!

Personality & Temperament
Libby greets everyone with a happy tail wag that moves her whole body. She’s relaxed and gentle with people of all ages, from babies to older adults. She doesn’t jump up or get rowdy, making her a wonderful companion for families or households with children.

Other Dogs & Animals
Libby takes some time to warm up to other dogs. At first, she can be defensive – once she feels safe, she settles down and generally ignores them. With patience and continued socialization, she’ll learn that not every dog is a threat. She has also improved around livestock—while goats used to get her barking and worked up, she now passes them with little reaction.

Home Alone & Training
Libby is calm and well-behaved when left alone. She goes to her bed and naps until her people come back. She’s crate-trained, housetrained, and continues to make steady progress with her manners.

That said, Libby will benefit from ongoing training, especially with off-leash reliability and socialization around other dogs. She’s smart and eager to please, so with consistency, she’ll continue to grow into an even more well-rounded companion.

The Ideal Home for Libby
Libby will do best in an active home that can provide her with daily exercise and opportunities to explore. She’d love a family who enjoys hiking, walking, or spending time outdoors. A home where she’s the only dog—or with patient adopters committed to her continued dog socialization—would suit her best. In return, you’ll get a loving, gentle, and loyal companion who’s happiest by your side.

If you’re ready for tail wags, outdoor adventures, and a devoted new friend, Libby may be the perfect match for you!
