Here's what the humans have to say about me:
MISS DORA***CONTACT MICHELLE mmay@kylabrescue.com DORA--HAPPY--LOVING--PLAYFUL!! DORA IS AN ADORABLE, 1 1/2 YR. .OLD, 35 LB., YELLOW LAB/BASSET HOUND MIX LITTLE GIRL, OFTEN REFERRED TO AS A "BASSADOR", SHE LOOKS JUST LIKE A LAB ONLY A '"SHORTER" VERSION!!! THIS LITTLE GIRL IS BEYOND CUTE!!! THE FIRST THING THAT WILL CATCH YOUR EYE WHEN YOU SEE DORA IS WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PUP SHE IS. DON'T PLAN ON KEEPING YOUR HEART WHEN YOU MEET DORA BECAUSE WITHIN MINUTES SHE WILL STEAL IT. HER COAT IS FLAWLESS, CUDDLE SOFT, A PALE, PALE CHAMPAGNE COLOR, ACCENTED WITH APRICOT HIGHLIGHTS ON HER ADORABLE "FLOPPY" EARS, IT LOOKS LIKE DORA WAS DIPPED IN A BIG BOWL OF VANILLA ICE CREAM . HER EYES ARE SOME OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WE HAVE SEEN, THEY ARE A DEEP, CHESTNUT COLOR AND TWINKLE LIKE A MILLION STARS WHEN DORA FIRST SEES YOU. YOU WILL WANT TO PAT, RUB AND GIVE THIS PUP BELLY RUBS(HER FAVORITE THING) ALL DAY LONG AND AS MUCH AS DORA ADORES ATTENTION AND AFFECTION IS JUST FINE WITH HER!!! ONCE YOU HAVE REGAINED YOUR COMPOSURE AND HAVE SAID "WOW" AND "SHE'S SO ADORABLE" A HUNDRED TIMES JUST WAIT TIL YOU MEET HER NOW "GREAT" KICKS IN. JUST CALL HER NAME, HER FACE WILL LIGHT UP, SHE WILL PRANCE RIGHT OVER TO YOU, TAIL WAGGING OR IN DORA'S CASE HER WHOLE BODY WAGS. SHE WILL TURN THAT ADORABLE HEAD TO ONE SIDE(SEE PHOTO) AND GIVE YOU A LOOK THAT SEEMS TO SAY "HI I'M DORA WANNA PLAY?" DORA IS ONE OF THE HAPPIEST, MOST LOVING, FUN PUPS WE HAVE SEEN. SHE TRULY IS "MISS PERSONALITY" SHE ADORES EVERYONE SHE MEETS. SHE WOULD LOVE TO BE A PART OF AN ACTIVE FAMILY AS THE MORE PLACES TO GO AND THINGS TO DO WOULD SUIT DORA TO A TEE. A PERFECT DAY FOR DORA WOULD BE TO PLAY IN HER YARD WITH A FEW DOZEN TOYS. IF YOUR DAY STARTED WITH A BRISK MORNING WALK OR JOG DORA WILL BE AT THE DOOR WAITING, EYES TWINKLING, TAIL WAGGING, JUST A PUP ALL READY FOR LIFE'S NEXT ADVENTURE. JINGLE YOUR CAR KEYS BUT DON'T LET DORA HEAR YOU UNLESS YOU PLAN ON TAKING HER ALONG, OPEN THE CAR DOOR AND SHE'S THE FIRST ONE IN, SHE WILL FIND HER SEAT TURN AND GIVE YOU HER "COME ON LET'S GO" LOOK. DORA DOESN'T ALWAYS KNOW WHERE SHE'S GOING AND IT TRULY DOESN'T MATTER TO HER SHE IS WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON IN THE WORLD TO HER --YOU AND THAT'S ALL THAT'S IMPORTANT TO HER. IF YOUR WEEKEND GET-A-WAY CALLED FOR A TRIP TO THE MOUNTAINS BOY IS DORA READY. SHE WOULD SPEND THE DAY EXPLORING NEW TRAILS, CHASING ANY STICK YOU THREW HER, DIVING IN THE BIGGEST FLUFFY SNOW BANK SHE COULD FIND, THIS IS ONE HAPPY, LOVING PUP. NOT ONLY IS DORA ONE OF THE MOST ADORABLE PUPS WE HAVE SEEN NOW LET'S ADD SMART TO THIS GREAT PUP'S PACKAGE AND BOY IS SHE!!! HE IS A PUP THAT IS EAGER TO LEARN, EASY TO TEACH, TREAT MOTIVATED AND MOST OF ALL SHE DELIGHTS IN PLEASING WHICH MAKES TRAINING A BREEZE. SHE IS LEARNING BY LEAPS AND BOUNDS AND FINDS ANYTHING NEW YOU INTRODUCE HER TO EXCITING AND A CHALLENGE. DORA IS A TRUE "OPEN BOOK" WILLING TO LEARN ANYTHING YOU WANT TO TEACH HER. IT'S UP TO HER FAMILY TO FILL THE PAGES OF HER BOOK WITH PLAY, FUN, TRAINING, TRIPS TO THE PARK BUT MOST OF ALL FILL THE PAGES OF HER BOOK WITH A TON OF LOVE. DORA JUST WANTS TO BE A PART OF A FAMILY WHO WILL SEE WHAT A TREASURE SHE IS AND LOVE HER. AT THE END OF THE DAY WHEN YOU AND DORA HAVE TAKEN CAR RIDES, LONG WALKS AND GONE TO THE PARK WHEN YOU COME INSIDE BUILD A FIRE AND SETTLE IN TO READ OR WATCH A MOVIE, IN HER HOME DORA CONTINUES TO SHINE, SHE IS RESPECTFUL OF HER SURROUNDINGS, KNOWING WHAT THINGS ARE HERS TO PLAY WITH AND THINGS TO LEAVE ALONE, IN HER HOME DORA IS A JOY!!! THIS "LOVE ME" PUP ONLY HAS ONE REQUEST AND THOSE SPARKLING EYES TOLD US THIS THE FIRST TIME WE SAW HER. SHE WANTS TO KNOW THAT WHEN SHE CURLS UP ON HER BIG SOFT BED AT NIGHT THE LAST THING SHE WILL HEAR FROM HER FAMILY IS "DORA WE LOVE YOU" AND HER EYES WILL CLOSE, SHE WILL DRIFT OFF TO SLEEP AND YOU CAN BET HER DREAMS INCLUDE ANOTHER EARLY MORNING WALK, A TRIP TO THE PARK, AND ANOTHER DAY SPENT WITH THE PEOPLE SHE LOVES--HER FAMILY!!!
