Worcester, MA -- Through no fault of her own, 11-year-old Kalissa is in need of a new home. She is a very sweet senior who was bounced from place to place over the course of the past few years and, as a result, needs a super-stable home where she can enjoy the daylong company of people and/or another dog. If you can provide that home for Kalissa, she'll reward you with the deepest kind of loyalty and affection. She's a medium-sized mix.
