Hi my name is Darla! My foster parent says I`m a very cuddly and friendly girl; my big ears are like a radar for finding new friends! I like to go for long walks to get all of the ` doggie news` via interesting smells. I can be pretty energetic, but that should be expected from a young lady like me. Once I get my fill, I take nice big naps just like the rest of them! If you have a dog already who you would like me to be siblings with, I would need to meet them first to make sure we get along. Some dogs can intimidate me, but I am working on understanding that dogs can be my friend. I would absolutely love to meet you!
`Have you ever thought about adding an addition to your family like a cat, dog etc.? If so, would you want a hamster, guinea pig, dog, cat, or something else? Would you want a cuddly or hyper pet? Would you like to take naps, play, cuddle? If the answers were a dog, cuddly pet, and yes then Darla’s a great choice! You should adopt Darla because… First a lot of people love cuddling. Do you? Well, Darla does and she’ll cuddle with you every day and that`s fun. Secondly she loves naps and she will definitely nap with you if you want and I’m sure you`ll have fun. Finally she`s loving and just wants a family that loves her. In conclusion you should adopt Darla from the humane society.` - written by a 4th Grader at Eberwhite Elementary
Darla is currently living in one of our wonderful foster homes. Adopting from foster is easy! Please email adoptions@hshv.org or call (734)662-5585 to arrange a meeting today!
