DARBY | The Observant Old Soul
Four months old | Female | Mixed breed
 
Darby gives the impression that she's already figured out how this whole world works. She's just waiting for the rest of us to catch up. 👀
 
With distinctive patches around her eyes and a heart-shaped marking on her back, Darby is easy to spot in a crowd. But her personality is what really sets her apart.
 
She's the observant one. While her siblings are busy crashing out after a play session, Darby might still be awake, watching what's happening around her. She makes wonderful eye contact, pays attention to people, and seems especially tuned in to what's going on.
 
She was also the first puppy in the litter to open her eyes, start walking, and eat solid food. Early adopter of the whole growing-up thing, apparently.
 
Don't let her thoughtful nature fool you, though. Darby can absolutely keep up with her brothers, including at mealtime, where she's one of the faster eaters. She's calm, capable, and perfectly comfortable holding her own.
 
Darby has grown up around three resident dogs and has met three toddler grandkids many times. She's also learned the household's Mumford & Sons naptime routine. Her litter has shared a playpen, and she enjoys having access to a crate for naps and play, although individual crate training is still ahead.
The family tree: Mom Logan's DNA includes Poodle, American Pit Bull Terrier, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Cocker Spaniel, and additional breeds. Dad is unknown, so Darby's adult size can't yet be predicted.
 
Darby is looking for: A family who enjoys getting to know a thoughtful, attentive puppy and will give her room to explore, learn, and grow into her own personality.
 
She's not necessarily the puppy demanding all the attention in the room. She might just be the one quietly deciding you're her person. 💛
