Each week, the Independent highlights an animal available for adoption at Baypath Humane Society in Hopkinton. This week’s adoptable animal is 2-year-old Izzy.

Here is Baypath’s description of Izzy:

“Izzy is the kind of dog who steals hearts the moment you meet her. With her lovable, gentle nature, she’s the perfect balance of playful and calm. Her energy level is just right — enough to enjoy fun, yet calm enough to relax by your side after a play session.

“Izzy’s favorite part of the day? When you come home! She gets so excited to see her people, wagging her tail and showing her joy with a few happy hops. She’s a loyal companion who thrives on love and attention but doesn’t demand constant stimulation. Izzy would do well with a playmate or in a home where she can get daily exercise, but she’s not the type of dog that requires constant action.

“If you’re looking for a dog who will greet you with a wagging tail, bring joy to your home without overwhelming you, and be your best friend through it all, Izzy might be the perfect fit!”
