My personality

My story

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

Sweet Krista was brought to one of our vets to be euthanized due to her beloved person passing away. Sadly no family wanted her. Thankfully the vet refused and contacted our rescue to see if we could help. Of course we said yes! Krista i feel has had a more difficult time dealing with the loss of her person than her canine housemate Duffy also listed on our site. She just seems somewhat sad and withdrawn so it make take her more time to adjust to a new situation. On the other hand, she may just be waiting for her own person and her own home to relax and show her real self. Right now she is one of many fosters. Krista is definitely an easy keeper however. She is housebroken and walks great on a leash. She is probably around 8 years old and weighs only about 17 lbs. She will make a great lap warmer given half the chance. Krista would prefer to be the only dog in the home unless you might also consider adopting Duffy who was her housemate for many years. Krista would enjoy a more quiet home and will be happy to window watch and alert you to any concerns. I absolutely adore this girl!
