• “I was adopted 9/2015. I had just had puppies, which had all been adopted. I had been living in KY when Homeward Bound Rescue brought me to PA to have my babies and be adopted. I was about 2 years old at the time. I like to think I can catch a squirrel, given the chance. I am sure if I was off-leash I could do it. However, my mom says I can't climb trees; but I would love to try! I have a lot of energy, but in spurts, may age and life of luxury has softened me. I am most protective of my person - my mom. I will bark and become very excited if she is with me and see other dogs.“

  — Nicole C.

I get along well with other dogs (my best friend is a golden retriever named Ellie) and animals and I love people and snacks of course! I need a place to run around and get exercise since where we live I have to be on a leash at all times and I’m off leash trained so I’m not able to run around freely. I need exercise and stimulation.“
