I am a friendly, sweet, and playful dog! I love being around people and very playful with other dogs. As you can see in my video, I am very good with young children and loves to play and sleep with my foster mom’s son who is 7 years old.
I was from a litter of unwanted puppies. My former owners were irresponsible people who did get my canine mother spayed. She gave birth to 8 of us. She gave 4 of our siblings to anyone who wanted us. And there are 4 of us remaining which she didn’t want us and wanted to send us to high kill shelter.
My foster mom is an experienced dog rescuer, when she heard our story she knew it was urgent to rescue us and find us home. Her home is full of rescued dogs waiting for homes but she did not have the heart to turn her back at us. My foster mom loves us very much and promised us a loving home and will never give up on us. I am a very good dog and praying for a loving home. Please give me a home and a chance to live!
