Story
Hi! I'm Freya, a special needs gal who is still looking for my forever home! I will be a year old on 12/7 & I'm all that & a bag of Pup-Peroni!!! My foster mom says I'm very smart & learn fast. I know sit, down & come commands & working on place & leave it commands. I walk pretty good on a leash but still need some work. I'm a little shy when first meeting people but once I warm up to you I'm a HUGE love bug!!! I need to be introduced to other dogs slowly & over a few visits. I have 2 German Shepherd brothers that I live with & just love them but it took me around 5 visits to decide I liked them. I had my surgery 10/12 for my birth defect, ectopic ureters. I still have urine leaks but it's better than before the surgery & might stop but I'm still in the healing process. If you would like to meet me let my friends at CW know so we can arrange a meeting.

Story
Hello from the foster mom, It's been over 2 months since we got Kalis. She is improving and starting to relax. We are working on house training (she likes to be outside so there haven't been many accidents) and some leash training. She is very food oriented. Her favorite toys are puzzle ones to get the food out. She is energetic but also like to lay outside or on the couch with us. She loves walks, sometimes car rides, and playing with her ball or toy in the yard. Our house is a little hectic, so I think Kalis has yet to relax completely. We feel that a calmer environment would be better for her. Too much noise and activity, like people coming and going, seems to set off the shadow chasing. Kalis is a good dog and given the right circumstances, will be able to be her true, sweet self.
