My story

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

Meet Diamond – a one-of-a-kind gem who’s ready to shine in a home of her own! This playful beauty absolutely lives for toys—she’ll proudly carry them around, toss them in the air, and even play a cheeky game of keep-away. But don’t worry—Diamond is a fair trader. Offer her a treat, and she’ll happily hand over her prize with a wag and a grin.

She can be a little shy when meeting new people, but once she gives you a good sniff and decides you're in her trusted circle, it’s all tail wags, toy show-and-tells, and sweet companionship. Diamond is good with other dogs and gentle with kids, making her a lovely addition to a family who can give her a little time to warm up—and lots of love once she does.

Diamond is dreaming of a home where she can relax and feel safe, but also have room to stretch her legs and get her zoomies out. A fenced-in backyard would be her personal paradise—perfect for playtime, sunbathing, and showing off her growing toy collection.

Diamond does have Lyme disease, which means she may need meds during a flare-up—some dogs only have one in their lifetime, while others may have a few. But it doesn’t slow her down at all.

If you're looking for a loving, playful, and endlessly entertaining pup with a sparkle all her own, Diamond might just be your perfect match.

Diamond's adoption fee is $125, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoption


Please note: All of our animals are spayed/neutered and up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations. Each pet also receives a behavioral assessment to help us better understand the type of home they may thrive in. However, it’s important to remember that the results may not fully reflect an animal’s true personality, as shelter and foster environments can be stressful. If you are interested in meeting any of our animals, we encourage you to first visit our website and submit an adoption application: https://www.acskc.org/adopt-1

Once your adoption application has been approved, we will call you to set up an appointment to meet with the pet! We welcome adopters from out of state to apply!
