Introduction:
Kaos was recently sprung from the Miami Dade shelter, has been fostered in the Orlando area, and is now on her way to her forever home in Pennsylvania. She's had an interesting history, first living on the streets in New York City with a homeless man, where she and her owner were befriended by some of the local dog lovers, then living on the streets in Miami until her owner disappeared and she got turned in to Animal Services. Thankfully, Kaos' tags were registered to one of the friends in New York, so she was notified after the shelter called the vet who issued the rabies tags. A last-minute effort with help from OTRA got Kaos sprung from the shelter (she was on borrowed time) and transported to a temporary foster home. She's been loving life at her foster home, getting to experience things like snoozing on the sofa for the first time ever, and her foster mom vouches for her as having a wonderful temperament.
