Hi, I'm Lovey Dovey! How are you doing? I'm doing great now, but I have had to get over a trauma of losing my best friend who had me since I was small. My owner was a veteran which I think is really admirable but then he broke his hip and was hospitalized and then through no fault of my own I ended up in the City Shelter. The good folks at Desert Haven helped me out of there and brought me here to live until I find my new family.

I'm only about 9 months old so that's a lot of jostling around for a puppy but I have made it to safety now. Whew! I've even retained all my super cool and fun qualities through it all! You know what they say about youngens, we're resilient! Now, on to the next chapter of my life.

Oh, you want to know some of those super cool and fun qualities I have? First of all, I love to play. I like to play with toys and play tug with people and I love love love to play with other dogs. I'm gregarious and playful with my roommate here at Desert Haven. We have a lot of fun together! I'm a little more of a mellow fellow when it's just me and the humans (the volunteers who are taking care of me). So I have a very nice balance to my winning personality.

I'm also quite smart and already know how to "sit" when asked (hint: keep treats for me in your pocket). I'm still a puppy so I'll need to learn the ropes when I move in with you at your house. See what I did there? I'm pretty confident you're going to fall in love with me when you meet me, so I'm guessing that you're next step is to send an inquiry about me. Am I right? Just let me know when I should pack my bags! Love you already, Lovey Dovey

(Lovey Dovey is around 35 pounds and we don't expect her to get too much bigger.)
