About me Hello there, I'm Apricot! I'm known for my sweetness and friendliness. I love it when people pet me, it's like a soft massage that makes me feel loved and relaxed. And treats? Oh, they're my favorite! I can do tricks for them, you know. Sit, stay, paw, I've got them all down. I'm an adult, but don't let that fool you, I've got plenty of energy for walks, playtime, and even some good old fetch. Why should you adopt me? Well, aside from my charming personality, I promise to be your loyal companion, bringing joy and warmth into your life. I can't wait to be part of your family! My adoption fee is a bargain! Not only do you get my unconditional love and a new BFF, it includes my neuter surgery, vaccinations, microchip, and even some cool coupons!
