My story

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

Fans of “Jersey Shore” may know cast member Deena from early seasons, the recent reboot of “Jersey Shore: Family Vacation” and a variety of spin-offs. (“Merp!”) Our lovely Deena is way less drama-rama and way more calm, cool, and collected.

Deena’s volunteer friends sing her praises- here’s what a few of them have had to say about her:

“Deena was easy leash up and walked nicely today without much pulling. She was very easy and sweet and loves to show off her skills. She’s a favorite of mine!”

“Deena was easy to leash. She was a brisk walker who also liked to sniff. She is very treat motivated and took treats gently. She also had great focus when doing her tricks: sit, paw, and down! Very good girl!”

“Deena waited patiently for leashing and did a nice wait before we exited her kennel. She settled nicely on our walk as we made our way around the lake. She had a beautiful “sit” and is patient when waiting for treats. She takes treats very gently. She’s a sweetie.”

Deena would like to meet any resident dogs before heading home to ensure a good fit. We wouldn’t move in with a human roommate before meeting them first, right? If you’re looking for a sweet and easy-peasy girl to join you on your daily walks, come meet Deena today!
