Up late too? Hi. Kismet here.
I'm basically a warm blanket with a bark button, excellent at cuddling and alerting you to leaves—consider me your security system and emotional support dog combined.
My notes say I'm a world-class cuddler, and I'd like that on the record.
I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.
I've been holding down the fort in Princeton, 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. — Kismet

About Kismet
Hi, I'm Kismet, and if you're looking for a goofy, affectionate best friend with a big personality and an even bigger heart… well, that might just be destiny. I'm a friendly girl who loves my people hard. I'm basically a living, breathing warm blanket—couch cuddles are my specialty, and I'm more than happy to lounge with you after a long day. That said, don't let my snuggly side fool you… I've also got some working-dog energy tucked in there. My previous human says I was awesome at doggy daycare, and I'd honestly love a "job," whether that's structured activities, training, or having a dog buddy to keep me busy. Speaking of protecting—consider me your personal alarm system. I will bravely alert you to suspicious noises, unexpected sounds, and possibly that leaf outside. You're welcome. Sometimes I sing a little when my people leave the room or head out of the house, so I do best in a home without shared walls where I won't disturb the neighbors. I love other dogs and would really enjoy a companion who wants to play. A more active household or someone who enjoys giving their dog purpose would be right up my alley. While I'm happy to chill on the couch, too much downtime can make me restless—balance is key for me! I'm still working on a few things, like remembering that potty breaks happen outside (I've had a couple oopsies when left alone too long), and resisting the urge to investigate counters and shred exciting paper treasures. I haven't tried a kennel yet at my foster home—my old life involved sleeping in bed with my human—but with patience and guidance, I'm learning every day. If you're looking for a loving, silly, loyal dog who wants to be involved in your life and maybe even have a purpose of her own, I just might be your Kismet. Kismet is from a local owner surrender.
