Are you looking for a cuddle bug that wouldn't mind curling up with you to watch your favourite shows and movies? Well look no further as Rhubarb is here! This sweet girl is the perfect mix of laid back and adventure dog.
Rhubarb has been looking for her furrever home since October and though she may be shy at first she warms up real quick and makes it a point to show her love.
When I first arrived at the shelter I wasn't feeling my best but with the help of my amazing foster family I am starting to feel a bit better! My new family should be prepared to continue my health journey with me.
