Yolo is a sweet and soulful girl with a heart as big as her name is unique. This lovely lady may start off a little shy, but give her a bit of time and she’ll quietly blossom into your most devoted friend. At home, Yolo is the definition of calm and quiet — a peaceful presence who loves to relax and observe the world from her favorite cozy spot. She absolutely adores other dogs and would thrive in a home with a confident canine companion who can help show her the ropes and continue to build her confidence. Yolo is also cat-friendly and respectful, making her a wonderful addition to multi-pet households. Leash walking is still a new skill for Yolo, but she's a quick learner and is gaining confidence every day. With patience, positive reinforcement, and a doggy buddy to follow, she’s sure to get the hang of it in no time. If you're looking for a gentle soul who just needs a little love and guidance to shine, Yolo might be your perfect match. She's ready to find her forever family — one that understands that the best things in life are worth a little wait.

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
