My story

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

MEET DIVA!

STATS: 1 year old, spayed, Black Akita Mix
AFFECTION/ENERGY LEVEL: I am the type of pup that is down for ANYTHING! I have great energy and I am always on the move! I am constantly in motion, whether it is playing outside with my dog friends, going on enthusiastic sniff-filled walks, or just looking up at you and smiling. I am always excited for whatever the next adventure is! While I bring the most bubbly energy to the table, I am also super affectionate and will snuggle my way into your heart. I am so ready to be your new best friend!
WHAT I LOVE: I LOVE to PLAY! I am an expert at fetch, so you better get your arm stretches in. I am very dog friendly and a total socialite, so I will make sure we are the life of the party at whatever function we attend. My social side is just one of my many incredible attributes, my smile is another - I am always flashing my pearly white grin. When I look at you, you can just feel the love!
KIDS: I haven`t been formally tested with kids, but my shelter family believes I would be good with older kids who understand my energy level and respect my space! I love to leap and bound around, so kids that I can`t accidentally knock over would be ideal!
OTHER DOGS: I`m SUPER dog-friendly and enjoy the company of other dogs! I go to playgroup here at the shelter! I am also one of the pups the shelter uses to temperament test other dogs, so I have to be on my best behavior!
CATS: Unknown
HER MATCH: I would be perfect for a family that likes to stay active, but snuggle hard during downtime. Once I get some of my young pup energy out, I am ready to crash for a dog-nap. When I love, I love you with my whole heart – you can just see it in my eyes!
SPECIAL NOTE: My shelter family jokes that I am a Heinz 57 blend of dogs! They aren`t quite sure what mix I am, but whatever it is made one absolutely wonderful girl!
