Hi!  My name is Skylar (it means sheltered.)  I was found in a cage one morning out behind the Montgomery Humane Society.  No one knows my story or where I came from.  Why my people just threw me away, I'll never know.  I am about 3 - 4 years old and weigh about 42 pounds.  I am settling into my foster home just fine and I am getting along great with my new house mates.  I really like the man that lives here...he pets me a lot and gives me treats!  My foster parents think the way I wag my tail is hysterical because I wag it all over the place; first around in a circle, then back and forth, then around in a circle!  When they talk to me I perk my ears up and tilt my head...I am so cute!  I don't have a bit of alpha dog in me and I always have a smile on my face.  Although no one knows if I have ever lived inside before, I am potty trained and have had no accidents inside.  These slippery floors make me trip sometimes which makes my foster people laugh at me...what is that all about?  The only time I am really vocal is at meal time!  I love my food and I will do a little dance to show you how excited I am!  I am really good for my grooming.  I sit still for nail cutting and I don't put up a fuss when it's my turn in the tub...and boy is my fur soft after my bath!  My favorite place to snooze is this comfy dog bed I found just right here on the floor! It's great!  I also don't even seem to notice the kitty cats that live here!  If you are looking for a very sweet, playful, fun-loving girl, then I am the hound for you!  Just call my foster people and they'll tell you all about me!

Adopted by the Luke Family of Bessemer, Alabama!
Your Foster People will miss you bunches and bunches sweet girl!
