My story

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

Meet Topaz — a brave, loving pup with a heart as bright as her name!

Topaz may have started her journey with a fractured leg, but this resilient little girl hasn’t let that slow her down. She’s healing beautifully and continues to show just how sweet, curious, and full of life she is.

Topaz is a total love bug who adores being close to her people and always likes to know where her human is. She’s smart, eager to learn, and doing wonderfully with potty training. She’s also starting to pick up basic commands and house manners.

She’s good with grade-school–aged kids, and while she hasn’t been around younger ones yet, she’s shown a gentle and affectionate nature. She also seems to love other dogs and would happily play with them once she’s cleared for full activity. For now, she’s taking it easy as her leg continues to heal, but she’s handling her downtime like a champ and does well in her crate.

If you’re looking for a loving, bright, and resilient puppy who’s ready to grow, play, and cuddle her way into your heart, Topaz might just be the perfect match.
