Kimara

Hello, my name is Kimara. My animal id is #14888. I am a desexed female black dog at the Manhattan Animal Care Center. The shelter thinks I am about 3 years old.

I came into the shelter as a stray on 29-Nov-2017.

Kimara is at risk for medical reasons. Kimara has been diagnosed with Canine Infectious Respiratory Complex Disease, which his contagious to other dogs. Behaviorally, we have no concerns about Kimara, and she has been assessed as being suitable for most homes.

Let’s get to know each other a bit more…

A volunteer writes: The Urban Dictionary defines Kimara as “A Goddess who can make anyone love her and want her”. Who’s going to be the first to put that to the test, as we volunteers can already vouch for her powers? Sleek and elegant in a gleaming black coat, Kimara loves meeting new people with an easy wave of her tail, and is interested in everything going on around her. In the park, she’s on active squirrel duty, keeping an eye on them, and so cutely swiveling her head around to make sure she has an eyeball on them all. Kimara wags her tail as she walks, enjoys a good cuddle and a few kisses, takes treats gently, and is a good sport about donning a Mrs. Santa Claus dress. Kimara has a knack for making friends with every wag of her tail, and you’ll definitely want this gentle, curious, smart, beautiful little girl by your side as you navigate life. Be sure to meet her when you visit.

My medical notes are…
