My story

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

When I arrived to the shelter ,I was super scared. I've been here since December 17th hoping my family would come for me..... I'm starting to think maybe a new family would do me good for this new year! I've come out of my shell and I'm one lovebug ! I do get along with dogs my size, but I haven't met friends smaller then me or cats.. but I can be small dog/cat tested if needed. If you think I'm one super adorable pup (3 yr old) call the shelter to be approved for a meet-and-greet !
