Meet Shilah: Good Things In Small Packages

Petite C.A.R.E. dog Shilah combines enthusiasm for life with a loving attitude.

C.A.R.E. dog Shilah may look puppy-like in appearance and attitude, but this petite pup is actually full-grown.

"My enthusiasm for life will be apparent the second you meet me!" Shilah exclaims. "Friendly, outgoing, and energetic, that’s me! I give everything my all—loving and playful, happy to snuggle, play the clown, or go for a jog. Whatever you want to do, I’ll be by your side."

"I still have some learning to do—mainly self-control—but I’m a quick learner," Shilah continues. "Your guidance and patience will help me catch on fast. It might be hard at first when you need to leave me alone. I most like will cry and worry since I hate to be alone. We can work through this with extra training. Always remember: the best gifts come in small packages. And that’s ME!"
