04/16/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Diamonds are a girls best friend!! And this little gray low rider is ready to be yours. Adorably friendly and bouncy on leash, she wiggles, wags and bounces her way down the street, never pulling and checking up with me often as we go. You can’t help but laugh at how adorable she is, her tail going a mile a minute, her eyes twinkling. We stop in the park for some pictures, Diamonds posing like a rock star keeping her eye on the treat in my hand and giving me a quick woof if I’m not fast enough with her reward. She knows what she wants when she wants it. I love a dog with opinions! Diamonds went potty the moment we were on the street indicating she may be housetrained. Clearly a mom several times, she needs a bit of TLC for her coat; good nutritious food will go a long way to making her coat shine. A vet tech told me they gave her a bath when she first came in as her skin was a bit dry and they were all impressed at how good she was in the tub and they’re in love with her. Friendly energy, sparkling eyes, kisses and a wagging tail are what Miss Diamonds is all about and she’s ready to share her life with her new bestie. Is that you?
