Click apply to start the adoption process. CiCi is a super sweet, smart, and resilient girl! Around 2-and-a-half years old and weighing about 55 lbs, she is enjoying life in her foster home—even though she’s missing one back leg. This little difference doesn’t slow CiCi down; she loves running and playing with the other dogs in her home. She only takes extra care when hopping into her foster mom’s truck or onto a bed, something she manages with determination and caution. Her foster mom delights in CiCi’s smile, especially when she’s excited by your attention. CiCi has a wonderful personality and excellent manners, although she admits to hogging the bed now and then! Enjoying walks, car rides, and playtime with fellow canines, CiCi has shown little interest in cats and displays an impressive intelligence. She’s microchipped, fully vetted, spayed, crate trained, and housebroken—ready for a second chance in a loving forever home. If you’re looking for a playful and loving addition to your family, CiCi is waiting to meet you! This could be the start of something paw-some.
