Darla's owner in Waterloo, Iowa, no longer wanted to have pets after having a baby. Owner tried for several weeks to find Darla a home or rescue with no luck. She was going to put Darla down if she could not find someone to take her. Luckily a WPR foster home was willing to take Darla in so Darla's life was saved, and she is now living in a foster home. Darla had already been spayed, and she is now up to date on shots, and tested heartworm negative.

Darla is about 3 years old. Darla is a sweet girl and loves people and children. She is a big girl at 64 pounds so only risk would be knocking a little over by accident. Darla has not been around cats. She does ok with some dogs and not others. Not sure why she decides she does not like certain dogs. She loves Bagel who is another foster dog and he is a beagle mix. So is best if she meets your dog if you have a one. She tends to get jealous too of other dogs if you are giving more attention to the other dog than to her. Have noticed that she barks at men and sometimes strangers. She seems to be loyal to her person. Of course, losing teh home she has since a puppy through NO FAULT OF HERS, is confusing for her. She is trying hard to figure things out and find her place in the world. She loves attention and butt scratches. She stays close to you and loves to cuddle. She has young energy so would love a fenced in yard to keep her safe and to run around in. She would love an active person that will walk and play with her.

Will someone please adopt Darla and give her a forever home? $150.00 adoption fee.
