Story
Kimber is 4 years old but she's an old soul. She is spayed, house broken, crate trained, walks good on the leash, and knows the basics of obedience. She is good with calm dogs after an appropriate introduction! Hyper or excitable dogs are not her style. She would be best with older children in a settled home. Kimber is a sensitive lady and predicability is what she needs. She's had a rough go at life before she came to me to say the least but after a few months of rest and rehabilitation, she's ready to settle into an easy life with her perfect people. She's the easiest-going girl you'll ever meet! Whatever you're doing is what she wants to do. Hiking, fetch, sleeping all day, she isn't a hard lady to make happy as long as she's with you! She is super toy and food motivated and loves to learn new things. Her favorite place is cuddled up under the blankets with you.If you think you might be a good fit for Kimber or have any more questions, please reach out! Willing to travel!
