My story

I am Flora, a dainty flower, a peaceful meadow, a......squirrel. Yeah yeah, I know, I look like a dog, but I`m a squirrely girly in the best possible way. While I can be shy, I just need a minute to scurry around you and determine you are not a nut. After my inspection, I will then become a dog. Not just any dog, the goodest girl. I like to sit on your lap and sniff your face for as long as you will allow me to. As soon as you stand up, I will scurry behind you to study your next move. Think you`re going to reach for a dog toy without me knowing? Think again! I LOVE toys and just discovered they squeak. This perplexing sound is delightful, and I will one day discover how this sorcery is possible. I am still figuring out other dogs and learning how to play like a dog (and not a squirrel), but I think I will get there in time. I have been learning sit, paw, and nice leash manners, and I will gladly learn more if you shimmy a piece of cheese my way for me to nibble on...like a...mouse. Aha! Plot twist! Just kidding, still a dog...a dog that would like to meet you!

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Flora, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
