My story

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

I look like a dog but I'm also part alligator. I luuurve the water, and whenever you try to give me lovins, I have perfected my gator roll belly flop. Take me to the lake or on the boat with you! I am the BIGGEST sweetheart you will ever meet - I do not know a stranger and instantly treat every person I meet like a lifelong best friend. I love to snuggle and show affection, but love going for walks, chasing toys, and enjoying adventures just as much. I have been at the shelter for 6 long months - could you be my forever family?
