A volunteer writes:  To say that Honey swept me off my feet would be an understatement.   Not only did she sweep me off my feet, she stole my heart and turned me into mush.   I met Honey when I saw staff gathered around a kennel telling each other how great this dog is. And, get this – these were male staff and transport drivers which made it even more special.  She’s such a tiny peanut, a senior with calluses on her pressure points, the cutest little overbite ever, housetrained, great on leash and so thrilled to make friends.  As soon as she saw a treat in my hand she sat and looked up expectantly, and of course you know she got a treat, and another, and another.  Honey was surrendered to our care due to her health issues and we’re told that she was comfortable and affectionate around children,  doesn’t guard her things, enjoys baths, is housetrained although has lately been urinating in the house (age? health?) and is well behaved when left home alone. Honey kept putting her head in my lap for petting, she loves people and it shows.   She knows her name, comes when called and while I would love to spend forever calling her name, I can’t, but you, lucky adopter can.  She deserves to spend her retirement in the warmth of a family, on a soft bed, eating her favorite foods and getting loved on every day.   She’ll make it easy on you and the rewards will be endless, so how about it?
