More: My name is Ally, it was Almond. I was taken to a shelter when I was 8 months old by my first family, I don’t know why they didn’t want me. I was just a puppy and whatever I did I’m sure they didn’t mean to hurt me. I met my new dad who volunteers working with other fearful and abused dogs. My new mom always wanted a big dog- playful, loving and full of life. Today I get to spend days taking long walks and playing with my new cousins Oakley, a Husky, and Maple, a Malamute. Spending days outside exploring and living the happy life is what all dogs should have.
