📬 Letter to Santa (from Shelly A878375, the sweetest PACC foster reindeer-in-training & Happy Howlers foster resident)
Dear Santa,
It’s me—Shelly! I’m almost a year and a half old, which is basically the perfect age for maximum fun and minimal mischief (usually). I’ve been a very good girl this year: housebroken, crate trained, and practicing all my manners. I even know all my basic commands—especially if you have snacks. (I’m super food motivated… like “will-sit-for-crumbs” motivated.)
So for Christmas, I’m still not asking for a hippopotamus, my two front teeth, mistletoe, or even bark boxes.
What I really want is a forever family to keep me warm, safe, and snuggled.
Here’s why I’d make the perfect holiday gift that keeps on giving:
🎁 I’m friendly with all dogs—seriously, every single one.
🎁 I’m a “leaner”—if you’re standing, I’m leaning. It’s who I am.
🎁 I LOVE cuddles, walkies, and bike rides (I’ve got my own little biker-pup swagger).
🎁 I’m an active girl who thrives with daily exercise—adventures are my love language.
🎁 I walk nicely on a leash… unless there’s a squirrel. (I’m working on it, okay?)
🎁 I come with 5 free days of doggy daycare AND a $50 gift card toward a training class of your choice. Santa would approve of this value.
All I want is a family who will laugh at my wiggly joy, appreciate my excellent snuggle skills, and let me be their walking, hiking, biking, tail-wagging sidekick.
Love,
❤️🐾 Your future best friend, Shelly (Pima Animal Care Center foster pup)
