Hello, I'm Desiree! Everyone that meets me thinks I'm just the sweetest doll. If you're looking for a cuddly couch potato, look no further as I'm the gal for you! I was brought in after a rescue failed in Texas and now I get to spend my days napping on the sofa or going for a nice stroll around the neighborhood. You see, I wasn't the biggest fan of staying at the Fetching Tails facility - way too much commotion for me! I need a calm, supportive environment while I undergo my heartworm treatment and fortunately, my new foster family has given me a quiet and comfy place to stay. I get along with dogs of all sizes and I mainly just co-exist. Another dog who matches my slower speed would be most ideal for me. I've met a kitty before and I didn't pay it any mind - I go about my business and they go about theirs! When I'm not busy catching Z's, you can find me going for a long walk. I've got great endurance and I can go for miles! I don't pull and I lack a prey drive - think of me as the perfect companion for getting your steps in. Not to brag too much here, but I really am the perfect dog: I'm fully potty-trained (so I don't need a crate!), I'm kid-friendly and I truly love every person that I meet! I don't blame them, who can resist this adorable face?! Given I'm such an easy going girl, I think training classes would be a breeze for me, and it would be a great way for us to bond even further. Who's ready to give this angel the wonderful life she deserves? Fill out an application and schedule some time to meet me soon, I can't wait!

Please note that we take time to learn as much as we can about each dog in our care and our bios are our current observations; we are unable to make any guarantees on the future health or temperament of your adopted dog. Most dogs in our care come with unknown pre-rescue history and as such breed and age estimates are an educated guess.
