Callie

Unfortunately we can no longer keep Callie. It is an urgent situation. We have a landlord that does not allow pets. She is a good dog, but would probably do better as the only dog. She gets along with other dogs, but has not really been around cats or other animals. She likes to play and go for walks/hikes or just lay around the house. She is protective of us and the house.
