Kisses is a nine-year-old black labrador that was left on her own when her elderly owner passed away. Without any family or friends to take the dog in, she was brought to the Arizona Humane Society.
Having lived her life in the company of a human who completely adored her, Kisses loved being around people and was as sweet as any good-natured dog could be. She has a playful spirit and knows a lot of spectacular tricks. But despite all of her impressive traits, no one wanted to adopt the senior pooch.
Spa day
After spending some time in the Phoenix-based shelter facility, a dog rescue group called Dogtopia Arcadia decided to help her find a new owner. The first thing they did was to give her a special spa day.
Kisses was brought to a specialty groomer where she received a good bath, and a de-shedding and conditioning treatment. Aside from that, she had a thorough cleaning of her teeth and ears, and she received a mani-pedi.
The day was so relaxing, and the experience lifted her spirits up. They hoped that this attitude will continue, and more people will love her for her demeanor.
Exposure
Her makeover was not just to make Kisses look and feel good. Footage from her special day appeared on several news networks in Phoenix. The videos were also featured online. This is to give the adorable pooch as much exposure as she can get.
This way, more people would know about her, and maybe, someone out there would fall in love with the old girl.
In a post on their Facebook page, Dogtopia Arcadia said that any family would be lucky to have her as a pet. She is a fantastic addition to any home as she is already house trained and highly sociable. Hopefully, she will successfully find her forever home soon.
