Bright Eyes’ name is fitting because of her huge, round eyes that make her as cute as a doll. Every time you look at her you can’t help but smile. She wants to show off and make you proud of her. Bright Eyes would be perfect for a senior who wants a quiet companion. She needs a calm environment where routine is the order of the day. She’s close to 2 years old, very dainty and sweet.

She became stiff as a board when she was held and wouldn’t stop shaking until she was set down.
