Dog’s Quirk/Story:

Dakota is fiercely loyal and a great guard dog. The first time we had the dog walker come over while we weren’t home, she refused to go out and went on the attack! She’s under five pounds, but strangers don’t know her bark is worse than her bite. Dakota loves to cuddle, eat, and if let loose in a dog park, she prefers to sniff every single scent over chasing balls – just a reminder to us to stop and smell the roses!
