My story

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

Meet Girlie! You're not reading the description wrong - Girlie's DNA showed she is a pit bull mixed with a bunch of smaller breeds - predominantly Yorkie! LOL. What resulted was a lower rider who will make you smile :)

Girlie came to Helping Paws from the shelter, where she was assumed to be a senior based on the cataracts on her eyes. Upon examination from our vet, it was concluded that she was actually more like 3-4 years old and had juvenile cataracts. We were sent to a specialist, and they thought she was a great candidate for cataracts surgery! She had that over the summer and her foster mom reports that she seems MUCH better and definitely has a better quality of life now.

Girlie does great with adults and cats. She also does well with older children, but absolutely no little ones. She can be very dog selective, so either a home with no other dogs or one with a very calm dog that basically ignores her could work. She likes to go for walks, cuddle up with you in bed, and loves getting belly rubs :) She is potty pad trained, but will also go outside as well.

Girlie's adoption fee is $300 and with that she comes fully vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped. If you are interested in meeting her, please submit an adoption application today through our website - www.helpingpawsonline.com/adoption-application

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Helping Paws is a foster based rescue that does not have a facility to house our adoptables. We believe they are better off in a loving foster home while they wait for their forever family. If interested, please fill out an application, and we will set up a time to schedule a meet and greet for you and the animal.
