My story

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

Say hello to Persephone—the goddess of good vibes and tail wags! This loving girl is all heart and happiness, always ready to greet you with a full-body wiggle, joyful bounce, and a flurry of kisses.

She lives for pets, cuddles, and any attention you’re willing to give. Expect her to hop right into your heart (and maybe your lap) the moment you say hi.

If you're looking for a pup who will love you like you're the center of her universe—Persephone is ready to shower you with affection, one kiss at a time.

💞 Come meet Persephone—your daily dose of love and sunshine!
