This royal mutt is the perfect blend of couch potato and spunky adventurer. She’s got a solid dose of senior wisdom with enough pep to chase squirrels (or at least dream about it). Annie adores her humans—she’s a velcro dog through and through. Whether you’re cooking, working, or brushing your teeth, expect a squishy meatball shadow loyally by your side.
She’s excellent with people of all ages (tiny humans included), loves attention from strangers, and greets the world with a wag and a hopeful look. That said, her majesty has Opinions about other animals on leash—expect some sass and side-eye if another dog dares look her way during walks.
Annie’s hobbies include sunbathing like a burrito, cuddling with her whale plushie, purring (yes, really) when she’s content, and enthusiastically destroying chew toys with her royal jaws of steel. She’s crate trained, house trained, and totally into snack time—just keep non-edibles far out of reach, because this queen has been known to snack on the wrong kind of treasure.
If you’re looking for a hilarious, affectionate, snuggly companion with a stubborn streak and a heart of gold, Queen Anne’s Revenge would love to claim your couch—and your heart—as her own.

From St. Johns (USVI), she was found abandoned in a parking lot, likely discarded after being used for breeding. Neglected and in poor condition, she received much-needed medical care before traveling to Brooklyn in early 2024.

"She lights up during cuddle time and just hanging out with us—she’s happiest when she’s close. She's also got a fun side and loves to play around. She has some royal demands: Luxurious naps and a consistent dinner schedule. If dinner is a little late, she will let you know with a look."
