My story

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

Meet Cashew! This active gal transferred to us from the San Diego Humane Society!
She has a puppy face, looks like a pint-sized Shar Pei, and has the most grumbly and muted bark!
Cashew is very energetic and loves to play with her friends, hops around asking the staff for attention, and likes to bring her chew toys up to us so she can show them off!

Regarding COVID-19 and other contagious illnesses: Please reschedule any visits if you are sick.
