Greetings, my name is Dakota, and I'm a shy but affectionate fellow who is ready to embark on a new chapter in my life. As a literary-inspired pup, I believe that every story has the potential to be a masterpiece, and I'm eager to write my own tale of adventure and companionship. Despite my initial shyness, I have a heart full of love to share. I may take some time to warm up to new people, but once you've earned my trust, you'll find a loyal and devoted friend who enjoys snuggling up with a good book and a gentle pat on the head. I may not be the life of the party, but I promise to be a faithful and loving companion who will always be there to listen to your stories and share in your dreams.I am full grown at ~60lbs.How did I get here? Adopted and returned to the SPCA when my family could no longer care for me.~My adoption fee is $120.00.~Many adoptions will take approximately 1 hour or more. Adoption requirements and tips to speed up the adoption process: Please be able to provide a valid photo I.D. with your current address (If your I.D. does not reflect your current address, bring a piece of mail with your name and address on it) Be able to prove that you are allowed to have a pet where you live (proof of home ownership or a copy of your rental lease including the specific pet policy) Bring along all members of your household, including dogs for an introduction to a new dog. However, we do recommend meeting with an adoption counselor before involving children in the pet selection process. To avoid longer wait times, we strongly recommended that dog-to-dog meetings take place after 1:00pm. Participate in adoption counseling process to learn adoption guidelines and adoption options.
