My story

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

Dora
8/13/12

Meet Dora! Her loving foster family has been working hard to teach her how to adapt to a life outside of a puppy mill. She has come a long way in the short time!

Because of her past, she is not very trusting of humans, so she will need to go to a home that can practice patience. She is a little weary of younger kids, and will do her best to hide if small children are around. She is not the biggest fan of cuddling at first, but with a little persuasion she will gladly fall asleep on you if you scratch her head and play with her ears!

She needs to go to a home that has other dogs, because she does best in a pack! She is quick to emulate behavior of the dogs she is around. She is mostly potty trained, and will quickly learn where the right place to go is with the help of her pack! She is typically very quiet, but will occasionally bark when you try to get her to play. Play is a new concept, but she definitely loves it!

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
