About Yara

Born under the bold Aries sun, Yara is all high spirits and big personality. She’s happiest in the middle of action—racing for toys, splashing through water, or simply tagging along with the family on any adventure. Yara lives for attention and doesn’t hold back when it comes to socializing: she gets along easily with people, other dogs, and kids, and she brings infectious energy to daycare or anywhere with friends. Wrestling and roughhousing are her favorite games, so another confident, playful dog would match her best. More laid-back pups might find her a lot to keep up with. Yara is built for an active home. She’ll need regular outlets like walks, jogs, or rowdy play sessions, but she’s not picky about the setup—apartment, condo, or house, she adapts, as long as her need for movement and company is met. Car rides? She loves them. Take her anywhere and she’ll make it fun. She’s house trained and up to date on vaccines. While she hasn’t met any cats yet, Yara has shown a reliably friendly streak in every other setting. If you want smart energy and affection bundled in one, Yara’s the sort to keep life moving and lively. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
