My story

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

Allow me to introduce myself! My name is Della and I am a very social dog who ready to be part of your family. I am a happy-go-lucky girl who would fit in nicely with a variety of families. I have a soft tan coat and soulful brown eyes that are hard to resist. I am a huge cuddle bug who will want to be on your lap as soon as we meet. The fact of the matter is though, I am not really a lap-sized dog! I am a friendly dog who has lived with kids of varying ages in my previous home. My tail never stops wagging when I meet new people! I am looking for a home where someone is at home most of the time. If I am being honest, I really don't like being alone. Someone who works from home would be a perfect fit for me! I like going on walks and it has been reported that I have really good leash manners. I would love to join you on your morning walk or run. I can't think of a better way to start the day! So if your a looking for a little love bug of a dog, you really can't go wrong with me!
