"Bindi came in to us wagging her tail. She can be vocal and pushy, but hey, girl power."

Bindi loves to play fetch. If she can get two or three fetch items in her mouth at the same time, the shelter writes, then even better.

The senior dog has been very stressed in the shelter environment and she seeks a home as the only pet, the shelter said.

"Bindi would love to spend her golden years with love and of course a ball," one volunteer said.
