Arrival Story:
I am 35 and spent my entire life terrified of dogs, but not puppies of course. My husband & I went to the Humane Society and I immediately fell in love with this beautiful, floppy eared, golden puppy. He has taught me so much about what those little things mean that dogs do that always scared me. He has filled my life with so much unconditional love that we adopted 2 more dogs. I can't imagine life without all 3 of them and the way that they greet you when you get home and snuggle up to you at night. Their love is amazing!!!

Bio:
Dakota will find one of his toys that he has had a long time and bring it to "Daddy" and put it on his lap as though it were the first time "Daddy has ever seen it. Dakota is quite the jumper and is so comical because he's abit clumsy too! He will jump so high and end up landing on his "sister" (one of our other dogs). He is also afraid of plastic things, large plastic objects such as the trash can....he will run away and bark or hide. He has such personality!!!! I love how Dakota will cuddle up right between me and his Daddy. No matter how sleepy he is, he will always follow me out of the bedroom to make sure that I am safe. He is one of my greatest loves!!!!

Forums Motto:
Dakota-Born to love!
