Calista is a gorgeous little fawn-haired sweetheart who seems to be discovering that life might actually be pretty wonderful. She’s the kind of adorable that makes people do a double-take, but it’s her gentle spirit that really sticks with you. Calista is easy to handle, good with people, and happily soaking up the idea that days can include cozy spots, friendly faces, and a steady supply of kindness. With a little patience and encouragement, this lovely girl is blossoming more every day. She’s truly a little doll of a dog who’s just waiting for the chance to shine—and whoever gets to call her theirs will have quite the pride and joy on their hands.
