Goofy and gorgeous
My personality: Sweet, goofy, excitable.
My story: I was just a week old when I became the sole survivor of my litter. My siblings were sadly killed by monkeys, and my mother was nowhere to be found. I was all alone in the world. Fortunately, Soi Dog came to my rescue, and I spent the following few weeks in a foster home getting the round-the-clock care I needed to stay alive. I’m at the shelter now ready to find a home.  
My health: I was born with a condition called ataxia which affects my coordination, so my head wobbles a little and I walk like I’m marching! You can see what I mean in the video above (although please note that I have grown quite a bit since this was filmed).
What makes me unique: My goofy personality. Whether I’m clumsily bounding after a tennis ball, wriggling with delight at having my belly rubbed or jumping into the nearest lap and demanding to be held like a baby, I’m always fun to be around!
What I need: A family who can help me learn and grow. The adoptions team say I’d be a great family dog.
Why you should adopt me: A shelter is no place for a sweet young girl like me, but unfortunately it’s all I’ve ever truly known. I’m eager to see what else life has to offer, and I’m hoping you’ll be the one to show me.
