My story

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

Meet Talula!

Talula was surrendered by her owner to Palmdale Shelter. Dogs at this facility only have a short time to be adopted or become at risk for euthanasia, due to the steady flow of incoming pets. We scooped up Talula on March 5th to become a Frosted Face. She is 9 years old and weighs 74 lbs. She is spunky, happy, friendly, and well-mannered.

Talula had a kennelmate at the shelter that she got along great with, and she does well making friends at FFF. Talula hiked 2.25 miles at her first weekly hike - don't let her frosted face fool you!

The volunteer who hiked with Talula shared this rave review afterwards:

"Talula is really awesome! She's a gentle big, very polite with every dog and human we passed on the trail. She was curious about the dogs ahead or behind us, but as we passed them she was perfectly polite.

Talula is really sweet, leaned into my legs when we paused along the trail, takes treats gently, and likes to be pet. And she's gorgeous! I'm sure she would like to take daily walks for sniffs and exercise."

Talula lives in a Foster home, and we are so happy she is being loved and pampered while she waits for her forever family. We received a great update from her Foster Mom:

"Talula is wrapping up her 3rd week with us! She's such a great doggo and is really starting to get comfortable in our house. She adores my husband, but definitely has started seeking me out first (which really makes me smile).

Talula is great with our little dogs and has even started doing a small amount of awkward playing with our younger guy! She trots to the door for pets when I get home from work, and it honestly melts my heart. Now that she's comfortable, we notice she spends more time with us and, though still enjoys walks, seems like she's in a hurry to get back to hang out.

Last weekend, Talula visited her first brewery with us and was a champion in meeting all of the humans and dogs that we saw!"

Check back soon for the next update on how sweet Talula is doing!
