Description

*PLEASE NOTE, APPLICATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED, BUT NOT REVIEWED UNTIL AFTER JULY 9TH*Hi there… I might take things a little slower, but I love a little bigger.I’m looking for a forever family who sees me for exactly who I am—a sweet, gentle girl who just needs a little extra time, patience, and love to shine.My qualifications include:Professional snuggler (I don’t rush perfection).Expert at giving soft, soulful puppy eyes.Champion nap taker.Gentle spirit with a big heart.Always trying my best, even when things feel a little tricky.My start in life wasn’t easy. I’m one of six puppies who were surrendered to a shelter before we even opened our eyes. Thankfully, an incredible foster family stepped in and bottle-fed us around the clock, giving us the care and love we needed to grow strong and healthy.As I grow, I may learn a little differently or a little more slowly than my siblings. Some things take me extra time to understand, but I promise I am trying my very best every single day. With patience, encouragement, and consistency, I continue to make progress at my own pace, and I’m so proud of every little step forward.A DNA test from one of my siblings showed we are mostly Husky (44%) and Pit Bull (28%), with German Shepherd (7%), a surprising Caucasian Ovcharka (10%), and a few other mystery ingredients. Whatever I’m made of, it came out soft-hearted and full of love.I enjoy gentle play, cozy naps, and being close to my people. Loud, fast, or overwhelming situations can feel like a lot for me sometimes, but calm voices, routines, and kindness help me feel safe and confident.My foster home includes other dogs, little humans, and even a cat who keeps a respectful distance while I take everything in at my own pace.Because I’m still learning, my forever family will need to commit to puppy training classes before adoption. I don’t need perfection, I just need someone who will cheer me on as I figure things out.If you’re someone who believes that the best things in life are worth a little extra time, I think I might be your girl. I may move gently through the world, but I will love you with my whole heart. You can meet me in Person at Petco on July 18th between 11-1 when I am officially 9 weeks old
