A volunteer wrote: Prada is a big, gorgeous black pittie with ears that look like airplane wings, a tiny white patch above her nose, and a little trail of white under her chin and down her belly. This 1 year-old puppy is extremely affectionate to all she meets, and I found this out very early when I met the cops that found her. They were gushing about how much they adored Prada, and had lots of questions about how quickly she would be able to find a home. They described the abandoned apartment that Prada was found in as being "straight out of Silence of the Lambs", and that the police had received 5 separate calls about her, because people in the neighborhood loved her and were worried about her being abandoned. Sure enough, as soon as I bent down to pet her, she started wiggling her whole body, wagging her tail, and ended up collapsing right there for belly rubs. It looks like she might have been used for breeding at one time, although she does appear to be well fed, weighing in at 60lbs. Most of the time I've spent with her has consisted of laughing at her hopelessly affectionate appearance -- she pants with her tongue hanging out of the side of her mouth, with her ears reaching for the sky. She walked fairly well on the leash, pulling a bit but extremely eager to please. By the time our walk was over, she had a spiders-web of slobber wrapped around her black-as-night snout, causing passersby to giggle as well. Everyone I've spoken to -- from the police to other volunteers -- who have spent time with Prada are in love, and so a forever home is exactly what this adorable puppy deserves.
