I am a beautiful girl that needs a very special home.  I lived my life in a kennel or cage and have not experienced the normal things a dog should be exposed to.  I am slowly blossoming in my foster home which amazes my foster mom and dad every day.  Adopting a dog like me is so rewarding.  I will need a family that will be patient in helping me continue to build my courage.  Dogs like me may never be normal, but we are so happy to have a loving home to continue our journey.  I take medication to help me so I can cope better with my surroundings.  I also have hip dysplasia and take medication to help me.

My new home must have a dog that I can follow to show me that everything is ok.

If you have it in your heart to help a dog like me, please contact our Adoption Coordinator at adoptions@asgoodasgold.org and tell her I sent you.

Female, 6 Years Old

MUST HAVES IN MY FOREVER HOME:

  • A stable mentor dog – one that I can follow and watch to know what things are ok and not scary
  • Someone who is home often
  • A fenced in yard – since leash walking is scary

If interested please fill out our online adoption application form; please make sure you fill in every required field/question or your submission will not go through. Please note that we take time to learn as much as we can about each dog in our care and our bios are our current observations; we are unable to make any guarantees on the future health or temperament of your adopted dog. Most dogs in our care come with unknown pre-rescue history and as such breed and age estimates are an educated guess.
