Hello fellow frost-hardy friends ... I adore DAKOTA. This almost 3 yr old girl waited for almost 9 months to be released when her former owner was arrested. Dakota did nothing wrong - he just didn't want to release ownership. After an initial 5 minutes of uncertainty, she is affectionate, happy, silly and LOVES a good belly rub. She does anything for food (we're learning to "catch"), is house trained, and she COULD use a little work on her leash skills (we all have our faults). She was previously used for breeding, and her stunning looks tell us why. She is dog social, and has not been tested with cats or kids. I her. XOXOXO
