My story

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

Did you know that a Twix bar has 28 grams of sugar? Well, our senior sweetie is pretty much made of sugar, so that’s way more than the treat that she’s named after!! And speaking of treats, that’s exactly what it is to spend time with this gal- a treat! Twix has a big smile, a super waggy little nubbin tail, and a snuggle for everyone!! Here’s what one volunteer said:

“I adore Twix! I often take she and her kennelmate to a play yard together and she is such a doll. She’s calm, sweet, and just wants to be nearby. She’ll jump up and quietly sit on the bench next to me, leaning on me lightly and enjoying pets. Twix loves attention, enjoys belly rubs, and is just the sweetest thing. Someone will be so lucky to scoop this girl up!”

Twix shares her kennel politely and has been playful when meeting other dogs in playgroup. She’d like to meet any resident dogs before heading home to ensure it’s a good fit. Ask to meet Twix today!!
