My story

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

So, my name is Galena and I am ready to go adventuring with you! I absolutely love to play outside either with my human servants or my doggie friends.
I am a super sweet girl but I guess some people are overwhelmed with all my energy. I really need somewhere to run and play before settling down for pets and food of course!!
I listen pretty well and know how to sit, especially if there are treats involved. Since I am kind of a big dog it would be better for me to go somewhere with adults rather than children.
It would be great if you can come spend some time with me. I have been here since the beginning of May and really need to get out of here. I am waiting on my forever home, perhaps that will be with you :)
