Kid Friendly: Yes, fostered with teenagers, loves everyone! If yes, what's the youngest child you'd recommend they be placed with? : Any age with proper supervision. She does have those sharp puppy teeth! Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know: Mesa has completely stolen the hearts of everyone in her foster home. She is super sweet, she has eyes that will melt you and an adorable personality to match. Mesa loves to be right in the middle of everything going on, she doesn't mind being held one bit. If you leave her alone she will bark and cry. She's the perfect mix of playful and cuddly, always ready for fun and then happy to curl up for snuggles afterward. She is a very special girl and and deserves a loving family to call her own.
