This very beautiful girl is Basha. She arrived through no fault of her own, her family suffered a terrible tragedy. Basha was scared and nervous given her new surroundings, but she has come a long way and has shown us the happy and playful girl that she is. Basha will need an experienced and patient human to show her the way, we are hoping that her new forever home comes sooner rather than later as she has been through a lot. Basha has made several friends and has really come out of her shell. She will do best in a quiet adult only household, at the shelter she has done well with the dogs. She loves to go out and play with you, she absolutely loves balls. Basha is about 3 to 4 years young, and is a perfectly petit 43 pounds, she is up to date on vaccinations, spayed, micro-chipped and heart-worm negative.
