• “Sweetest girl ever. Loves people and just wants all the people to love her and play with her.“

  — Jami C.

• “Dahlia loves to explore and take on new places. Her favorite thing is to roll around in grass patches. She’s adventurous yet sensitive!“

  — Erin M.

• “I’m a playful staffy cross who loves to run! I’m good with other dogs but can get a bit over protective of my younger brother (mixed breed lab x)“

  — Kara E.

• “Hi I’m Dahlia! My mom likes to say I’m a pocket pittie, cuz im so little. I love to play in water, playing with other doggies, and I’ll do just about anything for a yummy treat! Im working on my fear of strangers right now, so please be patient with me and I will be your bestie in no time!“

  — Persephanie H.

• “Dahlia is an American Hairless Terrier. She has high prey drive and loves to chase.“

  — Deleted P.

• “Dahlia loves to be outside, but is not really into chasing balls or frisbee. She prefers to sit in the shade and watch. She can be coerced to play by another dog.“

  — Lynne G.

• “Dahlia is a big friendly fluffy girl. She loves people but not so much outside animals. She enjoyed outside walks, balls, anything that squeaks, and random wildlife.“

  — Kerry C.

• “Dahlia is a sweet, smart girl, but she's anxious which can result in reactivity. She loves hiking, sniffing and playing fetch. She's trained in Rally and Treibball.“

  — Andrea S.

• “I am always the most excited to see new people and enjoy yelling hello as many times as it takes to get your attention. I am even more thrilled when I get to say hello to other animals as well. I just get so excited and become wrapped up in the moment. Sometimes my energy is over the top and I don’t even realize my volume is so loud it makes people and their fur children nervous. I’m harmless even though I don’t always sound that way. I really just love to play and make friends everywhere. I live with my one year old son, Henry. He is already much bigger than me. His dad is a Catahoula which means Henry has an exorbitant amount of wound up energy that he must have a healthy outlet for besides wrestling with me during his waking hours… I need a break too and sometimes we just need to run it out!!!“

  — Drows S.

• “I am very reserved and skittish because I was abused in my first home..my Hoooman took me home 7 years ago“

  — John S.

• “Dahlia is very shy and is weary of new people and dogs. Once she gets to know you she is a love bug and very playful.“

  — Denise R.

• “Im the problem child, im also a crazy person. Just enjoying everything I can, even if it’ll kill me“

  — Sierra F.

• “Dahlia is an American pitbull terrier who loves to explore new areas and play chase with her bestfriend dip. She is friendly with people but may bark at you at first. Sniffspot has been great for us being that she doesn’t have the best recall and is reactive around other dogs so she can fully enjoy herself and run around as well as I don’t have to stress about any altercations.“

  — Aundrea M.

• “Relaxed, food-focused pup who just loves to lap up the sun and love on her humans.“

  — Audrey N.

• “Dahlia is a friendly pup. Though she barks at strangers at first, she quickly calms down after a few pets. She is currently an ESA, but we are working towards service dog work when she is fully grown! She loves kids, cats, other dogs and people of all kinds ❤️“

  — Sylvia P.
