About Me
Looking for a lady? Here I am! I love me some human beings! Don’t be surprised if I lean in for a head scratch, or even better, a lap! You will be so impressed with my leash manners, almost as much as you will be with my people skills. I am a super chill girl and would fit in nicely with just about any family. Bigger is definitely better! And being the polite creature that I am, I want to make sure Animal Welfare League of Alexandria knows how much I appreciate them.

Ideal Match
My dream humans will give me lots of daily head scratches, take me for daily walks, and let me greet everyone with enthusiastic tail wags and sweet doggie kisses. They know and appreciate a lady when they see her! Then afterwards, my dream humans let me cuddle with them. Win, win!

Fun Fact:
I would be the perfect companion for you as you get ready for the holidays. Your family and friends will be charmed by me.

My adoption fees are paid and I will be spayed or neutered before you take me home.
