History: Dara is a beautiful girl who needed a second chance at a good life. She quickly wriggled her way into our hearts with how sweet and loving she is and she would make a great addition to a lucky home of her own soon!
A Note from the Foster: This sweet little girl came to me as Dara but I've been calling her Cookie because she's exactly that.. A total cookie!
She is shy when meeting new people and will likely skedaddle away from you at first but once she warms up, she wants to be near her people and loves tummy tickles. She especially loves my 15 month old daughter and would do great in a house with kids of any age - her little tail does a dance whenever she sees her! She does not have an aggressive bone in her body and is incredibly gentle.
Dara loves going on walks and does great on a leash. She is especially interested in other dogs and wants to stop and say hi to all pups, big and small. I think she would do really well in a house with another dog to help her continue to come out of her shell and learn the ropes of living a dog's best life.
She sleeps through the night in her crate with little to no issues and is potty trained, although she does occasionally tinkle when she gets excited or nervous.
Dara would bring joy and lots of sweetness to any house!

Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
