My story

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

Peaches is a 7-year-old pup who’s mastered the art of balance: part adventure-buddy, part professional napper. She’s equally happy going for walks, runs, or backyard toy chases (fetch is still a work in progress) as she is flopping onto the couch for some quality cuddle time.

Peaches loves people of all ages, but would be best with older kids who can recognize when she needs a little personal space. She can be a bit shy around new faces at first but quickly warms up with some reassurance from her person. She is perfectly housebroken however and is a quiet and very polite houseguest with her foster.

This quirky girl has a few standout moves that are guaranteed to make you smile, like flopping onto her back with her favorite toy or turning into a full-blown wiggle machine when you come home. She’s a treat enthusiast (her Kong is a favorite!) and a perfect mix of busy bee and couch potato. While Peaches doesn’t know many commands just yet, she’s a quick learner and understands when she’s invited to share the bed or politely asked to hop off. If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal companion who’ll join you for adventures and movie marathons alike, Peaches is your girl!
