About dogs named Sylvie

The following are 23 profiles of dogs named Sylvie from our database of 68 dogs with the name Sylvie.

• “Sylvie is a 5 year old rescue who is sweet as can be. She is generally calm and plays on her terms. She loves people and attention!“

  — Emma H.

• “Sylvie loves all people, cats, and most other dogs. She will chase squirrels and chipmunks. She loves being at daycare with the other dogs. I've seen some intermittent reactivity around other dogs only when I'm present, which is why I won't do dog parks. She's fine with other dogs when on the leash, and I skip leash-meetings. She has a super high energy/play level that some dogs find a little much. She's at daycare 1 day/week without problems, and absolutely loves it there. She's very friendly and lovey, a wonderful dog. I adore her.“

  — Mary Anne M.

• “Enjoys sniffing, romping around, and scavenging for any bits of food…anywhere. Energetic and pretty confident, sometimes doesn’t know when to dial it back around other pups…she’s still just a kid!!!“

  — Lauren T.

• “She is a rough Collie, just about a year old and lives at home with me and my older cat. She loves to follow us around and give her cat sister baths (she has grown on my cat slowly) Goes to daycare twice a week where she loves to run around with her friends and her favorite toy is a flirt pole (cat wand for dogs). Boundless amounts of energy and loves to explore. Equal amounts sweet and sassy (her daycare says shes a sweetheart always....so she saves it for home)“

  — Alicia X.

• “I love to chew and run! I also hunt on occasion but those bunnies are wily.“

  — Andrea S.

• “I’m a pandemic rescue pup, a bit shy at first but adding new experiences every day and quickly gaining confidence. I live with the man and the lady and the [annoying] cats in SE Portland. At our house we don’t have much of a yard, so thank you for letting me enjoy yours. I love zoomies, tug, fetch, and learning new skills—all things I can’t wait to do when I come to visit. My lady likes a thing called fly fishing and I don’t know what that is but I hear it involves water so if you have some, I need to test it out so I can go with her to the rivers someday. I also need to meet livestock and wildlife, so yay for farms and nature! I’m mostly a very good girl, with a smidgen of willfulness because everyone interesting has some, right? Also, you might look and me and think I’m little, but when I bark I sound big, so there! And yes, since you’ll probably ask, my ears ARE always like that. ♥️“

  — Paige W.

• “I'm a NGA greyhound from Ireland. I won a few races in my time. I'm very fast! I have high anxiety and am scared around new dogs and reactive. I'm working with a behavioralist to new to be more calm.“

  — April M.

• “Hi, I’m Sylvie! I’m an 8 year old Dobergal (though I hear my mom was half black lab!) and my momma adopted me almost 5 years ago! My brother Dax and I love to play together, but sometimes other dogs don’t understand that I’m the Queen of the Universe so they don’t respect me as they should. I also think that the diet my momma put me on is ridiculous and to express my displeasure, I like to eat rocks and plastic to prove my point. If you see me with a muzzle on, it’s because my momma is hoping that will help stop my rock eating but I’m a creative girl so who knows! The man who used to own me in Texas used to burn my face with cigarettes so I tend to be afraid of new men. My ideal afternoon is chasing my brother in the grass with no other people or dogs around!“

  — Steffanie R.

• “Hi I’m Sylvie, I’m my mamma’s BABY but I am absolutely TERRIFIED of people strangers. I really love to play with other doggies as long as I’m properly introduced & they don’t jump up on my mamma!“

  — Alex B.

• “Super sweet with so much energy! Sylvie has really come out of her shell since we adopted her and her mom. She loves her brother Loki and hates being apart! She has so much energy and loves to run and jump as high as she can!“

  — edwin C.

• “Sylvie is a pitbull-rottweiler mix we adopted as a puppy from Sanford, FL. She us up to date on all vaccines and medical records. She has mixed levels of reactivity that I’ve listed in further detail on her profile, but absolutely loves someone once she gets to spend time acclimating without too much interaction/being in her space immediately and lots of treats.“

  — Benjamin A.

• “I am a foster fail with my mom for a little over a year now. I am around 3 years old now. I have been used for breeding my first 2 years, and then was discarded of. My mom then fostered& adopted me rather quickly. She volunteers at a local shelter, which is how we met. I had a big brother for the first year in my new home, but after Xmas they told me he went over a rainbow bridge and won’t be around for a while. I do miss him a lot :(“

  — Tia M.

• “I am a 4 year old rottweiler that loves an open body of water and some cheese!“

  — Alexander A.

• “I am 2 years old and LOVE to play frisbee or fetch a ball. I’m a little bit reactive depending on the situation but I do great at the dog park. My mom is trying to train me not to jump on people but I just get so excited and want to love on them…especially kids!“

  — Pam C.

• “I’m a sweet chiweenie who loves her Mom! I follow my Mom everywhere and I’m super protective of her. I only even got out of my harness, jumped out the car window, and walked into the organic market to find my Mom while she picked up my treats. Everyone loves me, but I don’t love them back unfortunately. I came from a house full of dogs, and I’m so excited my Mom adopted me so I can be the only child and lay wherever I want!“

  — Dayna M.
