Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them?
Lorelai has come a very LONG way since she arrived in November. She LOVES other dogs and she is learning to trust people. She was very timid at first, but her confidence is growing every day! Now that she’s coming out of her shell, her personality is really starting to shine! She’s super playful and has the most adorable head tilt! She gets the cutest zoomies, but she also loves her naps. Lorelai THRIVES with other dogs - the more the merrier in her book!
