My story

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

Meet Waffle
Almost 2 years old-Cavapoo

Waffle came to us from a breeding situation, and despite everything she’s been through, she has remained nothing but soft, loving, and full of quiet sweetness. She’s the kind of dog who looks up at you with big, hopeful eyes, just wanting warmth, safety, and someone who sees her for who she truly is.

Waffle does have a heart condition called Subaortic Stenosis (SAS), and her case is on the more severe side. This means there is a significant narrowing just below one of her main heart valves, causing her heart to work much harder to move blood throughout her body.

Because of this, Waffle will need:
- Lifelong monitoring
- Regular veterinary care (possibly including a cardiologist)
- Potential long-term medication
- A family willing to give her that extra layer of care

Dogs with more severe SAS can still live loving, joyful lives but they do need someone committed to keeping them comfortable, safe, and supported.

And Waffle?
She’s worth every bit of it.

She is gentle, affectionate, and incredibly soulful. She loves cuddles, soft sweaters, slow walks in the sunshine, and simply being close to the people she trusts. Her diagnosis doesn’t take away who she is,it just means she needs a home prepared to love her a little more intentionally.

If you have room in your heart for a dog who will love you with her whole being, and you’re able to support her medical needs, Waffle could be your girl. She’s waiting for that special family who won’t see limitations, just love.
