My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Shakira, a spirited and fun-loving pup with stunning blue eyes and a personality that’s sure to steal your heart! Shakira is a sweetheart who likes to be close to her human – she loves to give kisses and enjoys peacefully relaxing by your side. Shakira really comes alive during playtime! Her exuberant demeanor makes her great with older children, but she is still learning not to jump for any homes with smaller children. Her ideal forever home would have a fenced yard, so she can safely get out her zoomies and play fetch to her heart’s delight. Shakira would do very well in an active household and would make a perfect hiking or running buddy. She is a big fan of scent games, belly rubs, and squeaky toys (the louder the better!).
Shakira is a social girl who loves to meet new canine friends and she’s made outstanding progress in learning how to calmly greet a potential buddy. Shakira is an excellent mix of playful, good-natured, and laidback – she’s guaranteed to make you laugh and will keep a smile on your face. If you’re ready to add some fun and companionship to your life, Shakira is your girl, and she would absolutely love to meet you.
