My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

SUPER SWEET 'Betty Boop' was rescued from a busy highway in Rutherford County, NC with 2 lacerations on her hind quarters(dog bites?)...no collar/tags, no micro-chip and no one stepped up to claim her on social media/newspaper ads/posters in the area she was located at.

dob: 11/7/2014..weighs in at 27lbs. HOUSETRAINED! VERY DEVOTED TO HER PERSON. Walks well on-leash, rides well in the car, enjoys trail walks(not a fan of traffic.loud noises) and just wants to be by your side.

Seeking responsible active person/couple(35>65yo-she will live another 10>12 yrs so we want to her to be with her FOREVER person for the rest of her life), no children(makes her nervous-loud noises), who has a fenced-in yard or WILL COMMIT to leash-walk(NO TIE-OUTS/tethers)-responds well to electric fencing, but only with supervision=while you're gardening/hanging out in yard-OK!), as she only wants to be by your side be it inside or outside. VERY DEVOTED!
