My story

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

This beautiful girl is Aria. She is and will be beautiful. You see, she had a not so good start to her little life. She had a horrible skin infection too but is very much on the mend now! She is our shelter sweetheart and is the cutest thing with an adorable smile!

From Aria's foster...
ARIA- will need a calmer environment for a permanent home. Children and loud noises make her VERY anxious so she'll need a home without small children. She loves water and will probably enjoy swimming. Another dog in the house would also probably help her since she is not sure how to really Dog. She is pretty good with cats but if they run she will chase them. She will need a home that can teach her proper dog manners and the Rules to being inside (chewing, potty training, manners, ect.)
