Story
Meet Diya — The Runaway Diva of AdventureAt just 1½ years old, Diya is the perfect mix of sass, spirit, and sparkle. This sleek black beauty has main character energy in every sense — confident, curious, and always ready to strike a pose after conquering a trail (or your couch).Diya came to us after deciding her neighborhood needed more of her fabulous presence — she just couldn’t resist a good solo stroll! Because of her love for exploration, she’ll need a secure, fenced-in yard and a family committed to keeping her both physically and mentally active. Hiking? Yes. Jogging? Absolutely. Strolling through the park while being admired by strangers? Her favorite.She’s smart as a whip but still working on her manners, so a home ready to continue her behavior training will help her blossom into her full potential. Diya would do best in an adult-only household that understands structure, patience, and the occasional diva demand (she knows what she wants and isn’t shy about it).When it comes to other animals, Diya says, “I’m the star here, darling.” She’d prefer to be your one and only at home but is open to doggy playdates with proper introductions.If you’re looking for a loyal adventure partner with personality for days and a flair for drama, Diya is your girl. She’ll fill your life with laughter, love, and just a touch of diva energy to keep things exciting.Perfect match for: Active adults, hikers, joggers, or anyone who believes a little mischief and a lot of heart make life more fun.
