My personality

My story

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

Meet Valerie: The Lap-Loving, Low-Rider Potato!

Introducing Valerie, a 5-year-old, 50lb bundle of love with the cutest 6-inch legs you've ever seen. This delightful "potato" is ready to roll right into your heart and home. Valerie may be low to the ground, but she's high in spirit and full of affection!

What Makes Valerie Special?
Valerie is the epitome of friendliness, with a heart as big as her personality. She adores both dogs and people, though her manners in asking for affection are as subtle as a sledgehammer—expect this lovebug to plop herself right onto your lap without much invitation! She’s crate trained and mostly potty trained, managing her household duties like the lady she is.

Lifestyle and Loves:
Though Valerie is low energy, she enjoys her short walks a few times a day—perfect for stretching those adorable legs and sniffing the world around her. She's relatively quiet but isn't shy about telling you when she needs a little extra something, be it a snack or some snuggle time. Toys and playtime with other dogs were once foreign concepts to her, but now she’s an enthusiast, diving into games and toy adventures with giddy abandon.

Ideal Home for Valerie:
Valerie dreams of a home where she can be the star of the show. A perfect setting would be one where the humans outnumber the dogs, giving her all the attention and belly rubs she desires. She’s a carefree spirit whose ideal day includes lots of love, a few leisurely walks, and endless belly rubs.

Why Adopt Valerie?
If you’re looking for a carefree companion to light up your life, Valerie is your girl. Her foster calls her a total doll, and it’s easy to see why. With Valerie, you’re not just adopting a pet; you’re bringing home a bundle of joy who will make every day a little brighter.

Adoption is $275, which includes spay/neuter at our vet, vaccines, dewormer, microchip, and clean bill of health. Although we work to potty train all of our dogs, we cannot guarantee full house training before adoption. Regression is a normal part of transitioning to a new home and we want our adopters to be prepared for that!

Ready to give Valerie the loving audience she deserves? She’s waiting to show you just how much happiness a low-rider potato can bring.
