Coretta (Cora) - Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Stanton, Kentucky

Meet Coretta or Cora, if you prefer. She is a heartwarming young pup with a spirit as warm as a cozy blanket. Cora is an affectionate bundle of joy, always ready to shower you with love and gentle kisses. Her gentle and subtle curiosity makes every day an adventure as she explores the world around her. Coretta’s favorite spot may be right beside you where she transforms into a delightful couch potato, content to simply be in your presence.
She arrived with another lost dog who we suspect was abandoned. Cora is thought to be about 7-8 months old and is medium in size. She is a loyal pup and up for a playful game, but is just as happy curling up for a nap. Cora’s loving and gentle nature makes her an ideal companion for anyone looking for a faithful friend. She will fit seamlessly into any home. Come meet warm and loving Cora!
