My story

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

Ensha A168241
47 lb. spayed female, approx 2 years old

- She’s a low rider who has been painted with pink in spots
- I treated her to a spa day but despite my best efforts it did not come off. She did amazing for her bath though!
- She is absolutely food motivated. Gets very excited for snacks. Sits and takes them gently.
- She’s a very playful gal but sometimes she just doesn’t realize her size
- She’s a complete lapdog!
- Give lots of kisses
- Walks well on a leash
- She also loves toys
- Seems non reactive to dogs nearby and may do well living with a fur sibling after slow and proper intros
Unknown behavior with dogs/cats/kids.

Please keep in mind that the shelter can be a very stressful environment. Studies show that a minimum of 3 days decompression drastically lower stress hormones and allow the dog to show more personality after they have settled in.

There is a suggested donation of $100 for our dogs, payable by cash, check or through paypal at the time of the adoption.

To meet them please go to front door and a DACC staff member will assist you with adoption or fostering.

**And when coming to meet one of our dogs, please bring all the humans with you, but leave any current dogs at home. Staff will go over how to slowly and properly introduce them after a decompression period.**

The shelter is open 7 days a week from 10:30-3:30 BUT our adoptions are done 7 days a week from 10:30am -3:00pm.

The last potential adopter must arrive before 3:00 pm so we have time to properly help you before closing.
