My story

Big brown eyes&#44 exquisite markings&#44 and a soft and supple coat of many colors. Hi&#44 Iandamp;#39;m Kim&#44 a very young and beautiful medium-sized gal who is in the market for a new home. I was transferred in from another rescue when they ran out of room for me. Iandamp;#39;m a sweet girl&#44 and Iandamp;#39;m working hard to learn the ways of a shelter. I get nervous here. Yes&#44 all the loud noises can overwhelm me and make me anxious. I seem to always need to be in andamp;quot;protective modeandamp;quot; since I worry that something bad might happen to me. But hey&#44 we all have to get used to the shelter while we wait for our family to find us. Fear of the unknown is worse than just facing your fears!andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Outside of the kennel I can be jumpy and excitable&#44 but inside the kennel Iandamp;#39;m soft and much calmer. Iandamp;#39;m very playful&#44 too; and I really get along well with other dogs. I love to play chase&#44 and I get the zoomies quite often after a successful play encounter. Hey&#44 playtime makes me happy&#44 and I show it! andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;The shelter thinks Iandamp;#39;d do best in a home where the kids are older. Iandamp;#39;m still working on how to curb my enthusiasm and not get overwhelmed with excitement. A lot of that is shelter stress and my youth. I think my confidence level will improve as I grow more sure of my environment and how safe it really is here. I am a true couch potato&#44 and Iandamp;#39;d sure love to find a family that wants to include me in movie and popcorn nights on the sofa. andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Please&#44 would you think about making me your dog? Iandamp;#39;m a rare gem of a girl&#44 and Iandamp;#39;d love to brighten your life with my sweet nature.andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Love from Kim

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