Meet Cali

Meet Cali! ❤️ Sweet, smart, loving, and always ready to make a new friend — that’s Cali! Cali is the kind of dog who makes it easy to fall in love with her. She absolutely loves people and welcomes new friends with a happy, friendly personality. But what makes Cali really special is her desire to please and her genuine love of being loved. She is housebroken, crate trained, and wonderfully well behaved. Cali is comfortable spending a normal workday in her crate and settles in beautifully, making her a great companion for someone who works outside the home. She is also a relatively quiet girl, so she doesn't need to be the center of attention all the time. Cali is smart and eager to learn. She has attended training classes with her foster canine brothers and did exceptionally well. She already knows her basic commands and picks up new things quickly. Her foster family has been impressed by how much she wants to please. She also has a wonderful history with both dogs and young children. When she was first found, Cali lived with two Australian Shepherds and did very well with them. She also spent two months living with children ages 3 and 5 and was terrific with them. She takes everyday noises and activity in stride. Cali enjoys a good walk and is excellent on leash, but she also loves having a yard where she can explore and enjoy herself. She would be happy in a home with a fenced yard, but she could also do well without one as long as she gets regular walks and exercise. Cali would be perfectly happy as an only dog, but she really enjoys canine companionship, so she'd also love having a doggy friend. She has not yet been exposed to cats, so that would be something to consider when finding her perfect home. Most of all, Cali wants a family to love and a family who will love her back. She is affectionate, adaptable, eager to please, and just an all-around wonderful girl. Whether you're looking for a walking buddy, a training partner, a couch companion, or simply a loving member of the family, Cali is ready to be your girl. Cali is ready to find the people she can love for the rest of her life. Could that be you? ❤️ Some of the information contained in this biography includes approximations based on our expertise and is not guaranteed. Applicants ideally should live no further than one hour from Cary NC as our dogs must be seen by a BFPA veterinarian for all medical care prior to adoptions being finalized. Our foster guardians deliver dogs to their new homes for adoption trials and we do home visits to finalize all adoptions. We therefore prefer applicants that live within an hours drive of Cary NC.
