Snacks has earned her name as she would do just about anything for a treat or two – she’ll even check in with you while on walks to make sure you still have treats in store to reward her for being good and not pulling on the leash or barking at squirrels. Snacks is quick on her feet and will be tons of fun to train. Looking to make new friends or have an excuse to chat with someone across the bar? Snacks will be your wing woman. She’s a star and loves to get pets and greetings wherever she goes. She does well with most dogs, but needs someone to reassure her and let her know that other dogs can be friends, too. Snacks has been at the shelter since Dec. 28, 2022. and at 1-and-a-half years old, she’s more than ready to find her forever home. Plus, her adoption fee is just $25 until May 15. Come meet her today, and be sure to bring some snacks!
