A staff member writes:Storm my spotted, old, sweet lady. Storm is around 10 years old and let me tell you, she looks GREAT for her age! Storm is very well-manned. She very obedient and respectful. When approaching her kennel, she comes forward and wags her tail effortlessly. While Storm and I walk outside, she walks so nicely and with such elegance, I love it! When we go out in the yard, we run around together, I start it up and she follows. She looks being rubbed and scratched, she has multiple happy spots. Storm loves to solicit kisses and is very photogenic. She also likes putting her head into your lap she just likes the attention. Storm is great around strangers, family and other dogs; she respects everyone and their personal space. She would make the perfect best friend to an owner looking for a companion. I love this gorgeous, senior dog, but I will definitely love to her get adopted to loving individuals who are willing to give her the world and for her to strive on for the rest of her life. Come see this lovely, beautiful soul at BACC today.
