Here's what the humans have to say about me:
SELENA***CONTACT KAT katkylabrescue@gmail.com SELENA'S STORY***SELENA LOST HER FAMILY!! WE RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE DIRECTOR OF A HIGH KILL SOUTHERN SHELTER LETTING US KNOW THAT A FAMILY HAD JUST SURRENDERED THE SWEETEST GIRL TO HER SHELTER. THE FAMILY WAS BEING RELOCATED IMMEDIATELY FOR THE HUSBAND'S JOB AND WHERE THEY WERE MOVING IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO TAKE THEIR BEST FRIEND SELENA. THE FAMILY WAS BEYOND HEARTBROKEN TELLING THE SHELTER DIRECTOR. "SELENA IS THE MOST WONDERFUL GIRL THIS IS THE HARDEST THING WE HAVE EVER HAD TO DO, WE HAVE NO FAMILY THAT CAN TAKE HER AND WE DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. SHE IS THE SWEETEST GIRL, WE HAVE HAD HER SINCE SHE WAS 6 WEEKS OLD, SHE ADORES OUR CHILDREN, SLEEPS IN OUR OLDEST SON'S BED, WE ARE JUST SO SAD AND UPSET THIS IS JUST SO HARD. SHE WOULD BE A WONDERFUL ADDITION TO ANY FAMILY, PLEASE FIND HER A HOME WHERE SHE WILL BE LOVED AS MUCH AS WE LOVE HER" WAS SELENA'S OWNER'S PLEA TO THE SHELTER DIRECTOR. THE MINUTE WE RECEIVED THE CALL TELLING US ABOUT THIS VERY SAD AND URGENT SITUATION WE COULDN'T GET TO SELENA FAST ENOUGH. SELENA LEFT THE HIGH KILL SHELTER THAT DAY, EYES SPARKLING, TAIL NON STOP WAGGING, SHE HOPPED RIGHT IN OUR CAR ALL READY TO BEGIN HER NEW LIFE.****SELENA--LOVING--SO SMART--A TREASURE" SELENA IS THE SWEETEST, 18 MO., BLACK LABRADOR/BORDER COLLIE MIX, TWO GREAT BREEDS, ONE "GREAT" GIRL!!. THE FIRST THING YOU WILL NOTICE IS WHAT A BEAUTIFUL GIRL SELENA IS, HER COAT IS FLAWLESS, "HIGH GLOSS" BLACK, SO SOFT IT FEELS LIKE VELVET, YOU WILL WANT TO PAT AND RUB SELENA ALL DAY WHICH AS MUCH AS SHE ADORES AFFECTION AND ATTENTION IS JUST FINE WITH HER!!! HER EYES WILL MAKE YOU MELT, THEY ARE A SOFT, COGNAC COLOR POSSESSING A LOOK THAT SAYS "LOVE ME"--IT IS IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO. JUST CALL HER NAME AND THOSE GORGEOUS "LOVE ME" EYES WILL LIGHT UP, HER LITTLE "FLYING NUN" EARS WILL PERK UP, SHE WILL COME OVER TO YOU TURN THAT ADORABLE HEAD TO ONE SIDE AS IF SHE'S SAYING "HI I'M SELENA NICE TO MEET YOU, WANNA PLAY?". SHE IS THE ULTIMATE COMPANION, WHAT WE REFER TO AS A "VELCRO" DOG, NOT A CLINGY, NEEDY GIRL BUT A PUP WHO'S HAPPINESS IS JUST BEING WITH THOSE WHO LOVE HER. SHE IS ALSO A VERY SOCIAL GIRL, SHE LOVES EVERYONE SHE MEETS, AND ALL DOGS SMALL, MEDIUM OR LARGE SELENA IMMEDIATELY INVITES THEM TO BE HER NEW BEST FRIEND. WHATEVER YOUR DAY CALLS FOR IS FINE WITH SELENA. IF YOUR DAY STARTED WITH AN EARLY MORNING WALK OR JOG, BOY IS SELENA READY, SHE WILL PRANCE ALONG, HEAD HELD HIGH, TAIL WAGGING, TAKING IN ALL THE SITES ALONG THE WAY. SHE WOULD ALSO DELIGHT IN NAPPING ON YOUR DECK WHILE YOU WORKED IN YOUR GARDEN, SELENA'S TRUE HAPPINESS IS JUST BEING WITH THOSE WHO LOVE HER, SIMPLE THINGS TAKE ON NEW MEANING WITH A PUP LIKE SELENA AT YOUR SIDE. PUPS LIKE SELENA ASK FOR SO LITTLE BUT GIVE SO MUCH LOVE IN RETURN. THEY ARE THERE FOR YOU 100%, A CONTENTED, COMPANION WHO LOVES YOU WITH EVERY FIBER OF THEIR BEING. SELENA IS GRATEFUL FOR ANY AND ALL ATTENTION BUT SHE NEVER PESTERS OR DEMANDS IT. EVERYDAY IS A GIFT AND TIME WITH PUPS LIKE SELENA IS SO PRECIOUS. THERE IS ANOTHER PART TO THIS EXCEPTIONAL LADY'S PACKAGE AND YOU WILL NOTICE THIS AFTER SPENDING ONLY A SHORT TIME WITH SELENA, THE LABRADOR AND BORDER COLLIE ARE TWO OF THE MOST INTELLIGENT OF BREEDS AND BOY SELENA IS ONE SMART GIRL!!!. SHE IS A PUP WHO IS EAGER TO PLEASE, SHE DELIGHTS IN PLEASING THOSE SHE LOVES AND THIS MAKES TRAINING A BREEZE. THE POTENTIAL FOR A PUP AS SMART AS SELENA IS HUGE!!! AT THE END OF THE DAY WHEN YOU AND SELENA HAVE SPENT THE DAY TAKING LONG WALKS, RUNNING ERRANDS AND JUST ENJOYING EACH OTHER'S COMPANY WHEN SELENA COMES INTO HER HOME SHE CONTINUES TO SHINE WHEN YOU SETTLE IN ON THE SOFA TO WATCH A MOVIE OR READ A BOOK, YOU WILL FIND SELENA CURLED UP AT YOUR FEET, THE LOOK ON HER FACE IS ONE OF CONTENTMENT AND PEACE, SHE IS WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON IN THE WORLD TO HER, YOU, AND THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS. SHE WOULD BE A DELIGHTFUL COMPANION FOR A COUPLE, A SINGLE GUY OR GIRL OR A FAMILY WITH GENTLE CHILDREN WHO WOULD ADORE HAVING SELENA AS THEIR BEST FRIEND. SELENA ONLY HAS ONE REQUEST AND HER EYES TOLD US THIS THE FIRST TIME WE SAW HER. SHE WANTS TO BE A CHERISHED COMPANION, TO BELONG AND BE A PART OF SOMEONES LIFE, TO BE A PART OF A FAMILY AGAIN, THIS IS THE ONLY LIFE SHE HAS EVER KNOWN, THE LIFE SHE SO DESERVES TO KNOW AGAIN, SHE WANTS TO BE LOVED AS DEEPLY AS SHE LOVES. SELENA'S PERFECT FAMILY WOULD BE ONE THAT HAS A HEART FULL OF LOVE, READY TO INSURE THAT THIS TRUE COMPANION PUP LIVES HER LIFE SURROUNDED BY THE WARMTH OF A HOME AND KNOWS THE JOY OF A FAMILY WHO WILL CHERISH EVERY MINUTE WITH OUR "LOVE ME" LITTLE GIRL.
