My story

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

Karol completely breaks our hearts sometimes. She wants your attention so desperately and once she's out of the kennel, making friends and getting lots of lovin', she puts the brakes on when it's time to go back. She just loves being with people! Karol is only about 4 years old and her former life was a sad one, judging by her condition when she arrived in Jan. 2023. At first, she was leery of meeting new people and took a bit to warm up to new friends. She's blossomed into a whole new dog since then, and while she may still exercise a little caution meeting someone new, it doesn't take much to win Karol over. She is a smushy-mushy girl that loves getting attention, she's great on a leash, she's housebroken, and she's very playful too. Unfortunately, she's best in a home with no other pets or young kids, but she would be the perfect loyal and loving companion if you just give her a chance. Call 609-693-1900 or email: office@ahsppz.org for an application. File#62607 1/4/23
