A volunteer writes:  I LOVE LOVE LOVE Miss Karla.  She’s gorgeous, sweet, snuggly, and made me feel like I was the only person in the world….and was still friendly and welcoming to everyone who wanted to meet her.  She was surrendered to our care by her person when he lost his home and we’re told amazing things about her.   Owned all her life, she lived with children, 3 small male dogs and cats.   She’s tolerant, gentle and sweet with the kids, and relaxed and playful with all.  She loves to cuddle, loves belly rubs, loves to sit next to her person and will nuzzle an idle hand to pet her.   She did that to me too as we cuddled together on the bench.  She’s housetrained, well behaved when left home alone, knows ‘sit’ and ‘high five’, plays chase and catch, and likes toys and loves to watch TV with her family.  I’ll say it again, I LOVE LOVE LOVE Karla.  Her leash manners are lovely, she play bowed to other dogs as they passed, totally leaned into me for snuggles, and was so happy sitting comfortably beside me – just two old friends in easy companionship.   Karla has an injury on her tail so is wearing a cone which I took off during our time together. She stood so perfectly as I put it back on her.   She is a gem, and anyone who isn’t rushing right down to make this girl a part of their family is missing an amazing girl.   Making Karla part of your family will be the best decision ever.
A volunteer updates:  I was looking forward to my visit with Karla – I needed a hug…and she was there for me.   She’s so welcoming, so cuddly, so sweet and low key, and yet has a definite personality – she’s an individual who nudges me with her nose when I stop petting her.   She’s an absolute rock star in play group, playing with a multitude of dogs at one time- playful, solicitous, and social.  Her seriously frumpy face shows some little Chiclet teeth when in repose and I can’t stop laughing at her face.   Karla is simply fabulous – come meet her and see for yourself.
