*adopted*
This is our friend Salem! Salem is an amazing dog who has been searching for a home for a very long time with Utah Animal Adoptions Center.
Salem is a great dog! We love her so much we wish we didn't have to let her go!
Salem is very happy and extremely sweet. She LOVES to lick your face, or your arm, or whatever she can reach. She is a very good cuddle buddy and companion. Salem loves to play, either fetch, tug, or anything really. She is always happy! Salem always has a wagging tail and a smile, even when she is in trouble.
Salem loves everyone. She absolutely loves kids, but does have those herding instincts and will start nipping their ankles when they get too excited. She does well with cats and will sometimes chase them at first, but never harms them and stops quickly.
Salem loves playing with other dogs but can be possessive with her food and toys with some dogs, so she would either need to be the only dog or have a good match and an experienced owner.
Salem is mostly crate trained but will bark some when left alone so she is not a candidate for an apartment life.
Salem usually does great outside of the house and meeting new people, but places like parks and baseball games can be a little much for her at first and she can get riled up but does calm down. She has been in the shelter for a very long time and was not socialized well before that, so she is still learning how to adjust to new exciting things, but naturally does well.
Salem is up for adoption with Utah Animal Adoptions Center but we are also helping to get her adopted.
She is about 2 years old, spayed, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and house trained.
We love Salem very much and want a home that will be able to give her a lot of attention, adventure, and love!
