Hi there, I’m Raelyn—a big, beautiful Rottweiler mix with a heart as soft as they come. I know I might look like I’m all strength and confidence, but the truth is, I’m still learning to believe the world is a safe place. When I get nervous or unsure, I don’t act tough—I run to someone I trust and lean in for comfort.

What I really need is a patient, loving home where I can take things at my own pace. I’m not the kind of dog to barrel into new situations with confidence; I’d much rather check in with my person, take a deep breath, and try again with their reassurance. I promise I’m trying—I just need someone who understands that being brave doesn’t always come naturally.

I do really well with other dogs—they help me feel grounded, and I enjoy their company. A calm, confident canine buddy in the home could be a big help to me. 

If you’re the kind of person who believes in second chances and gentle encouragement, I think we could be something really special. I may not be bold, but I’m full of love—and I’ll give it freely to the one who helps me find my courage.
