Papaya's Story

Looking for a spunky little lady to keep you company? Meet Papaya! This pretty girl came to us as a stray, nervous and unsure of us. Thankfully Papaya turned right around, and is now everyone's best friend! She is a sweet, goofy, playful girl and would love a family that can match that energy. She loves toys and is happy to roll around with a squeaky toy or chew all day long. Papaya absolutely loves the water, be it splashing around in a kiddie pool or playing in the hose. She already knows some skills including "sit" and "shake"! Papaya is uncomfortable around both dogs and cats and prefers not to interact, so she would prefer calm and respectful four-legged housemates or to be the star of the show. Papaya has met a couple of children since being in the shelter, and does well with them! If you have other animals at home we recommend bringing them in for a meet and greet before taking Papaya home. If you are interested in meeting with Papaya, please submit an adoption form on our website: fairfieldcountydogs.com and we will contact you to arrange a time to visit. Primary Color: Yellow Weight: 50lbs Age: 2yrs 6mths 2wks Animal has been Spayed
