Couldn't sleep either? Hi. Kristi here.
I'm quietly observant at first, but once you earn my trust, I blossom into your devoted shadow—I just need space to run, consistent routine, and you nearby most days.
My write-up says I'm great with kids — built-in best friend, basically.
I do come with a few special needs, but please don't let that scare you off — I just need a patient friend, and I pay it back tenfold.
I've been holding down the fort in San Diego, hoping someone like you would wander by.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
With a little luck, Labor Day could be my first one in a real home — possibly with you, or with someone you send my way.
Thanks for spending a minute with me. I'll be right here, tail ready, hoping it's you. — Kristi

About Kristi
Kristi is an Australian Shepherd Mix, approximately eight years old, weighing 40 pounds. She is spayed and up to date on vaccinations. Kristi is comfortable with familiar people but wary of strangers, and does best as the only pet in a home without children or other animals. She is vocal, needs substantial space to run, requires at least an hour of daily exercise to prevent destructive behavior, and cannot be left alone for long periods—she needs a trusted person nearby most of the time. Kristi has minor skin issues requiring weekly medication, cannot tolerate standard commercial dog food and requires a special diet, has some leash-handling challenges, and marks in the home occasionally.
