Notes from the foster:

Petra is a sweet pup that would LOVE an adopter looking for a dog that cuddles!!! She may weigh 55 pounds, but she is pretty sure she is the perfect size for any lap! She is a really great house-trained dog that would love doggo friends, but would benefit from being a solo dog in her own home. She likes the quiet and calm! She LOVES playing with stuffed squeaky toys, and just being a part of the family.

Petra gave birth to NINE puppies, and was a fantastic momma. We are hoping to see her go to a family of her own!!
