My story

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

Meet Robin! She is a 1 yr old female Australian Kelpie mix that weighs 37.6 lbs. She came into the Mesquite Animal Shelter as a stray on 11/12. When she first came in she was underweight at 33lbs, scared and untrusting. Can't say I blame her as people were not kind to her. Since being at the shelter, we promised her we would take care of her and show she can have trust and confidence again. She took our words to heart and is much happier. Robin loves to romp around the shelter yard chasing balls and climbing on the equipment. She walks well on a leash, takes treats gently, knows the sit and paw commands. She didn't show any interest in the other dogs, but we do always ask if there will be another dog in the home to please ask the shelter for a dog test. Robin is also a big lovebug! She enjoys sitting close, being petted and will climb in your lap and give plenty of kisses. She has a gentle and loving heart, and such a sparkle in her eyes. She now hopes that she can find her own loving family that won't let her down again. One that will shower her with hugs and kisses, and a secured backyard for exercise and chasing balls. Most importantly she wants to be included in family activities, going for walks, and living inside cuddling close on the couch and falling fast asleep next to her human companions. Please come meet this wonderful girl!
