My name is Dakota!

Hi, I’m Dakota and I was saved from a high kill shelter in Memphis. My “foster mom” was having a slight emotional breakdown when she saw a picture of me. She just knew I deserved a chance. She watched me climb up the euthanasia list for a few days until I was next. I was scheduled to die that day. I’m just a year old, and never really got a chance at life. So, with emotions high she did something crazy. She adopted me over the phone, hired pet sitters to break me out and watch me. She set up transport, and I rode in a private plane to Michigan. I was so scared, but I’ve been the bestest boy. Now, I’m coming out of my shell and learning what it’s like to be loved and to be a dog. I have puppy energy and antics, but I am eager to please and am learning so fast! I love my dog and cat friends, but I’m still learning boundaries and I play a little rough. I would do best with patient animals in the home. I am HW positive, but treatment is free from the shelter.
