About Cara

Our sweet Cara came to us from a shelter that was just to busy and loud for Cara to thrive in. She is a middle aged gal who weighs 35pounds and is a bit shy and reserved by nature. Cara is looking for a quiet home with a family who is willing to give her time to fall in love with them! Cara's foster mom calls her a pineapple- sweet on the inside but a bit prickly on the outside, especially until you earn her trust. Cara can be a very sweet and loyal companion, but is particular in the things she likes and doesn't like. She has bitten before (did not break skin), so needs an experienced home that is ready and willing to do slow introductions and be careful. This has been successful in her foster home. For the above reasons, young children are likely not the best fit for Cara. She does love the pre-teens in her foster home so older, repectful children may be. She is dog selective so introductions with other dogs would also need to be slow. She was initially 'too interested' in the resident cat, but has now become her protector, so she *could possibly* live successfully with cats. Cara's hobbies include enjoys chasing wild birds and balls! She is also house-trained and not destructive when left uncrated (but is crate trained). She would also be perfect for a retiree who is ready to kick back and relax! We adore Cara and know we can find her a family who will love her just as much! Is it you?
