To go with her all-white coat, striking blue eyes, and extra-long legs, she has a comically small head and hardly any neck to speak of. Let’s just say she is a sight to behold! But it's not just her looks that make her special. Sissy is a quirky little lady with a cat-like demeanor. She can hang out on the couch quietly and then suddenly sprint across the room for no apparent reason. And with her amusing "dance routine" with her kibble—playfully rolling over a few pieces and then pouncing as if they might escape—her antics are sure to keep you entertained and laughing. Sissy has had an uncertain past and is looking for her forever home. She is deaf and startles easily, so a relatively calm and predictable home environment would be ideal. She also has trouble seeing in dim light and has a slight fear of the dark, so she appreciates having a yard light turned on for her nighttime outings. Sissy is dog-selective and will do best as an only pet in a home with either no or older children. Sissy is happiest when she's sitting by her person’s side or exploring the outside on daily walks or in a fenced backyard, but she also enjoys her quiet time, being her quirky little self. Sissy is looking for an adopter who appreciates her unique personality and can provide the loving, stable home she deserves. If you're looking for an unusual but loyal friend who will keep you smiling, Sissy might just be the dog for you.
