04/30/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Promise….just her name evokes a future of love, happiness, snuggles, and…….promises kept. She’s a gorgeous girl, surrendered to our care as her family moved where she is not welcome. Let their loss be your gain as I fell in love with her and know you will too. We’re told that Promise gets along with children and adults, loves getting pet, lived well with another dog, doesn’t guard her food, enjoys a bath and grooming, is housetrained when walked at least twice a day (morning and night), loves to play fetch, is crate trained, and is described as a “loving, affectionate and playful dog”. I loved my time with Promise, her leash manners are lovely, her coat is as soft as the finest velvet, she showed off her ‘sit’ and ‘shake paw’, gets excited when she sees other dogs, and loved playing with a toy bringing it up on the bench to share with me. I had to leave our pen for a short while and Promise waited quietly and patiently for me, wagging her tail happily when I returned. She gives kisses, is so calm and easy, posed for photos like a pro and I’m completely smitten with this soft, gentle girl. So, paraphrasing a line from a well known advertisement, ‘Promise her anything but give her a home’……..it will be the best decision you’ll have made all day!
