Story
Khaleesi (or Cali for short) was adopted from a rescue shelter at around 6 weeks. She had a sister and was very playful as a puppy. Khaleesi is now 1 year and 3 months old. She is a very loving energetic dog and loves to play/run around. An ideal home for her would be one with a fenced in backyard, or parents that are willing to give her walks and attention. Khaleesi knows the basics of sit and off, she is still young so she can learn a lot more. Her parents will be showered with love and 'kisses' as she is attentive to her loved ones. I truly hope you decide to choose beautiful, loving, energetic Khaleesi to join your home/family.
