Story
Kylie was found on the streets of Ontario protecting her sister Kendal. We brought her to our home so they would not be killed at the shelter. Kylie is so very sweet and is so proud of being the best sitter she can be. She is very receptive to training and loves to play with toys as much as she can. She has dominant behaviors which may be from litter syndrome with her sister so may do best with male dogs or on her own if she gets the time and commitment she needs. I am willing to work with her adopter to help with medical costs if needed as she will need up to date vaccines. Please help us find Kylie a second chance at life as soon as possible.
