In the shelter’s words

Meet Remi, a 9-year-old sweetheart who somehow manages to be calm, goofy, gentle, and full of joy all at once. Her foster family describes her as truly "the sweetest dog," and it is easy to see why. Remi loves being around her people, meeting new friends, lounging nearby while you go about your day, and soaking up the sunshine. When she comes back inside nice and warm from sunbathing, her foster family lovingly calls her their "baked potato."

Remi is potty trained, crate trained, leash trained, and rides well in the car. She does wonderfully with kids, including toddlers, and is gentle, polite, and never pushy. She also does well with other dogs, especially calm dogs her size or smaller, and after a little time to warm up, she is happy to play and share toys. Cats are still an unknown. Indoors, Remi is quiet and easygoing. She rarely barks, settles into household routines easily, and is perfectly happy napping in whatever room her people are in. At night, she likes sleeping nearby on her big fluffy dog bed, complete with the occasional snore and little dream "woofs."

Don't let her age fool you, because Remi is still active, healthy, and always up for a walk, some yard time, or a new adventure. She is also a major treat fan and performs an adorable little "dinner dance" when mealtime rolls around.

Remi's story almost ended far too soon when she landed on the euthanasia list at Dallas Animal Services. Her foster family saw her profile, said "absolutely not," and brought her home. Since then, she has shown them just how special she is. Loving, joyful, goofy, polite, and endlessly sweet, Remi is the kind of dog whose smile and helicopter tail can brighten an entire room.

Her foster family jokes that she does not have a "you're in trouble" full name. Instead, she has a "you are being ridiculously precious" name: "Remitha Marie". If you are looking for a gentle companion who wants to be your shadow, soak up the sun, and love your family with her whole heart, Remi may be exactly who you have been waiting for.
