🌟 Meet Dakota, the stunning shepherd who is ready to leap into the forever love she’s always yearned for! This girl has a heart as big as her dreams, and let me tell you, her journey has been filled with ups and downs. Dakota was rescued from a Los Angeles shelter, and just when her happily ever after seemed to be in sight, heartbreak struck again. Can you believe it? She was left behind, abandoned in the care of a boarder. But fear not! That boarder was an angel in disguise, and together we are making sure Dakota’s next chapter is the heroic tale she truly deserves! Dakota is phenomenal with people - and I don’t just mean ‘phenomenal’ in passing! This girl connects deeply, loves wholeheartedly, and thrives like a flower in the sunshine with human companionship. She lives for affection, shared moments, and being your loyal shadow, always at your side, soaking in all the love that life has to offer. ❤️✨ Here’s the deal! Dakota feels a little uncomfortable around other dogs, so she will need to be the only furry friend in her new home. But hold on to your hearts because in exchange, she will fill your life with more love than you can imagine! 💕 Dakota’s favorite pastimes include playing ball, stashing bones like a treasure-hunting pirate, and soaking up every ounce of human attention like it’s the finest meal. Now, Dakota does have a little hitch in her giddy-up; she has an older leg injury that can flare up when she’s super active. While she adores playtime, she’s just as thrilled to cozy up on the couch for some snuggles, content just being by your side. 🛋️🤗 This girl has been let down before, but let me tell you, her heart remains open, soft, and full of hope. Dakota is ready to be someone’s one and only. She’s waiting to shine in a home where she will never face abandonment again. If you’re looking for a deeply devoted companion with a heart of gold, Dakota may just be your perfect girl! If you’re interested in meeting Dakota, please *apply through the Buddy App*.
