Story
- May enjoy like minded dog friends- Tends to be an introvert around other dogs and may prefer one-on-one interactions or smaller groups of dog friends; may not be comfortable at dog parks or at large, dog-friendly events (dog intro recommended) - Young, noisy or busy children can be too much for them (mature home recommended) - Can do well with dogs, but may do best with a slow introduction- Has been diagnosed with non visual left eye (more info at ARL) - All adoptable dogs and puppies are spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations (rabies and DA2PPV as appropriate for age- The ARL's shelter software requires that we choose a primary breed for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most dogs we are only guessing at primary breed. We get to know each dog as an individual and do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, and not breed label Primary Color: Tri Color Weight: 45.5 Age: 2yrs 1mths 1wks

Story
Ashaya is a super high energy, super loving girl. She wants nothing more than to run, run, and run some more. She likes to throw the ball and keep-away is one of her favorite games. Sadly I have neither the time nor the energy to keep up with her unlimited supply of go-time. She's highly intelligent and loves all people and animals but reining her in so that they love her too has been difficult for me. Having a place with space for her to run free as often as she wants would be ideal and I think she would do amazing with another dog friend at home to bounce off of.
