My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Currently in foster care! Please contact the shelter to schedule a meet and greet.

Notes from my foster family: "This girl will make the perfect family pet! Some things about Shadow:
1. She has SO much love to give. She loves pets, snuggles, and affection. She also loves a good chew toy and a playful tug of war session.
2. She loves to sleep at the foot of the bed and on the couch next to you.
3. She would do best in a home with children because she adores them and is very gentle around them. She watches out for the kids, licks their tears, and even sits and watches them from the window when they are outside playing. Occasionally whining when they are out of sight.
4. She has had no problem getting along with our other dog but will try to move ahead of her for pets and affection.
5. She is potty trained. Not one accident since being in her foster home!
6. She already knows sit and recently "paw."
7. She is very gentle when accepting treats with a very soft mouth"
