My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Zelda’s Search for Her Forever Home – And a Foster Family Until Then

Zelda is a beautiful soul who just doesn’t understand why no one has chosen her yet. Despite her heartbreaking past, she still holds onto hope—and we do too. Zelda deserves a loving family to call her own. Could that be you?

Meet Zelda:
🐾 Age: 3-4 years old
🐾 Good with: Cats, dogs, and kids 8+ (She’s a bit shy at first but warms up with kindness)
🐾 Loves: The outdoors, long walks, and exploring nature’s scents
🐾 Trained: Crate-trained, potty-trained, and fully vetted

Zelda’s journey has been tough. In 2021, she tragically lost her human and found herself in a high-kill shelter—emaciated, scared, and pregnant. Since then, she’s been adopted twice, only to be returned both times through no fault of her own. Her most recent return came when her family moved out of state and the city life just wasn’t a good fit for her.

This sweet girl thrives on love, patience, and a calm environment. Though she’s timid at first, once she’s comfortable, she shows her playful and affectionate side. Zelda would thrive with a patient and understanding family who can help her feel safe and secure.

She’s a calm girl with a curious nature, so a secure yard is essential (6ft privacy fence or possible invisible fencing). She gets along great with children who understand her boundaries, enjoys walks, and loves being both indoors and outdoors. Car rides aren’t her favorite—she tends to get motion sickness—but she’s otherwise an easy-going companion.

Zelda has waited far too long for the home she deserves. Could you be the one to give her the forever love she’s been longing for?

More about this rescue

Our humble mission is to fight for the underdogs! We want to make a meaningful impact one animal at a time through dog rescue. At Simple Girl Doggie Haven, our focus is on dogs that may have physical, medical, or other special needs. Disabilities range from blindness, deafness, poor confidence, aggression, and other forms of disability. We are dedicated to giving these animals the best chance of survival by providing lifesaving medical treatment or training. Our goal in many cases is teaching them to trust, so they can experience what it feels to know love and compassion and, ultimately, to find their furever homes. Won't you help us? Please consider donating, fostering, or adopting. You, too, can make a difference in one doggie's life!
