INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The number 13 is unlucky for some people, but it might turn out to be a very lucky number for a sassy shelter sweetheart in Boone County.

Thirteen months ago, Cutie arrived at the Humane Society for Boone County. With her big heart and an even bigger personality, this spunky pup quickly became a staff favorite.

As the months passed and shelter visitors came and went, Cutie waited on her forever family to arrive. More than a year later, she’s she’s still waiting.

“She’s equal parts zoom queen and nap ninja, with the instincts of an explorer and the snuggle skills of a weighted blanket. She’s also suspiciously smart — like, ‘teach me a trick and I’ll one-up it for fun’ smart,” Alexis Durbin of Friends of the Humane Society for Boone County told News 8.

Cutie does well with other dogs, is crate-comfy, and would thrive in a home with adults and older kids who understand her vibe: go hard on the trail, then go soft on the couch. She loves playing in kiddie pools, making her the perfect companion on hot summer days.

Durbin says Cutie has stolen the hearts of everyone at the humane society, but it’s past time she steals someone’s heart for good:

Cutie isn’t just looking for any home — she’s ready for her people, those who know that sometimes, the very best dogs are the ones who’ve waited a little longer… and have way more love to give because of it.

Did we mention that this shelter sweetheart looks fantastic in a tutu?

“Come meet her,” Durbin said. “You might just change her life…and she’ll absolutely change yours!”

If you think Cutie would be a great addition to your family, email hsforbc@gmail.com to schedule a meet and greet.
