My story

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

Spunky and fun young boy with a personality and zest for livin the high life, hi there, Im Billy! I found my way to the shelter as a stray and now I am anything but lost! I know who I am here, I know who loves me and I know I belong with your family! I do prefer a family with kids over the age of 5 years old. My spunk and energy level might seem overwhelming to a toddler, but rest assured, I am as sweet and playful as they come!<br/><br/>I attended school when I went to the Pets for Parolees program. I learned commands such as sit, down and go to my bed or kennel on command. Hey, I even know shake. <br/><br/>Other dogs and I get along swimmingly. I loved playing in the kiddie pool we had here at the shelter, and I love running around in circles thinking.... this place is awesome!!<br/><br/>I do get kinda sad each day. Nobody is meeting me or asking about me at the shelter. I try so hard to look my best, keep my smile on, and I always put my best paw forward. But nobody notices. Ugh. I want so much to be loved by someone. I dream of being someones once in a lifetime love. I know I could make you happy. I know I can be the best friend that youve been dreaming of, too. <br/><br/>If youre looking for a short, squatty little man with happiness, joy and excitement in his eyes to show you and your family what having a joy for life really looks like, then come ask for me - Billy. Just one look at me and you wont walk away without me. <br/><br/>Love, Billy
