POTW: Daisy

Hello world, I'm Daisy (86231)! I'm a sweet and active dog looking for a hiking buddy and forever home. I've had some pretty big ups and downs in my life, but I always land on my four paws. I'm affectionate and I love to meet new people and get belly rubs! I'd love to find a home where I can get lots of exercise and affection. If I sound like the right dog for you, ask to meet me today. Visit the Humane Society Silicon Valley, 901 Ames Ave., Milpitas, or call (408) 262-2133.
