My story

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

🎄✨ COMING THIS HOLIDAY SEASON… A TAIL OF LOVE AND SECOND CHANCES ✨

“A Christmas Tail” – Starring: CHRISTMAS
She arrived on 12/25/24, a quiet winter morning, alone and a little unsure—just a shy soul in search of a new beginning. At around 2 years old, she wasn’t sure how to trust again… until someone handed her a tennis ball. 🎾💖

At first, she was hesitant. Reserved. A little unsure of this whole “play” thing. But as the snow melted and the toys came out, Christmas started to believe again—believe in joy, believe in love, and believe that maybe… just maybe… her forever family was out there.

She’s spayed, vaccinated, and has the kind of soulful eyes that belong in a feel-good holiday montage. She’ll need a little help with leash training, but don’t worry—that’s just another excuse to spend more time together. ❄️🐾

So whether it’s snuggling by the fire, strolling through a snow-covered park, or simply learning to love again… Christmas is ready for her Hallmark ending.
