Meet Dakota

Dakota was surrendered to a busy shelter because the grandchild was allergic. She had very little socialization and is a little fearful of strangers but warms up really fast but she may bark at new people. She can seem pretty scary at first but she is really just afraid. She is great in the house and doesn’t destroy anything, loves walks and car rides. She was very skinny and extremely into her food and practicing how to control herself when meals are served but she does jump up to get her bowl so no kids she is a tall girl who is going to be a big lady. She is so happy to see other dogs and has a few casual friends that she walks with, for now she would need to fed alone and not in the same room with any other dogs. A family who would do formal obedience could continue to turn Dakota into a perfect lady.FullSizeRender (44) IMG_4624 IMG_4859 IMG_4860 (1) IMG_4884 IMG_5105
