Hi! My name is Collette! I am 4 years old, but have the heart of a puppy. I love to cuddle and play. I get excited around new people and new dogs, but once I get a good sniff I’m comfortable.
I like to play games, love to go on walks, and am always up for a good chew toy. I’m also really well potty trained and don’t need to be in a crate unless you really need me to be. I’m very laid back and enjoy hanging out with my humans and doggy buddies. When I’m feeling really playful I like to play tug with my toys and run around outside.
I’m looking for a family that can provide consistent belly rubs and lots of love. Even though I’m playful, I’m a gentle girl and would be great with a family that has kids too.
If you are interested in Collette, consider letting us know by filling out a (no obligation) adoption application (http://www.pgspca.org/adopt/online-adoption-application/).
Collette is expecting to attend the next adoption show, May 27th at the Bowie PetSmart, although there's always a possibility that plans will need to change at the last minute.
NOTE: We are an all-volunteer group and do not operate a shelter. All of our animals are in foster homes. Due to our requirement for a home visit, we generally only place animals within an hour's drive of Washington, DC. Questions can be directed to pgspcavol@gmail.com.
