12/19/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Sleek and elegant, Miss Shay loves greeting other dogs as they pass our pen, engaging in brief bouts of play in group. She’s gorgeous in her nicely groomed gray coat, likely housetrained, shows off her sit, takes treats gently and joins me in my lap for some hugs and kisses. It took Shay a couple of days to get used to her new environment, but now that she has, she’s super friendly and welcoming of all. She’s a bouncy, playful and affectionate little girl looking forward to meeting her forever person. Her long slender runway model legs carry her beautifully and she’s ready to walk them right into her new home. Meet her today!
