04/20/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: A gorgeous slate gray coat wraps her cute little body, and her big ears reach to the sky! Surrendered to our care as her family moved someplace where she’s not welcome, she joins us with a glowing resume of a family dog. Ivy lived with children between the ages of 4-6, likes to be brushed and get baths, doesn’t guard her ‘stuff’, is housetrained when walked regularly, and isn’t bothered by loud noises. Ivy was my first walk of the day and set me up beautifully, as she’s a delight!! After showing off her housetraining skills the moment we were outside, we enjoyed a walk to the park, and Ivy is indeed a good city girl. Noises, kids on skateboards, shopping carts, horns honking — nothing bothered her as her tail wagged as we walked. Stopping for some pictures in the park, she poses like a pro, showed off her ‘sit’, enjoyed her reward treats, and then rewarded me with some kisses!!! Off leash in the yard, Ivy played with some toys, posed for more pictures doing that head tilt thing I just love, and when our time together came to an end, hopped right back into her kennel. Miss Ivy is a fun, friendly affectionate pup looking for a new family to take care of. If you’re lucky, it could be yours!
