Story

Meet Pepper! Pepper is a shy, 4.5 year old Bernedoodle who is bonded to her friend Cheddar. These two will need to find their forever home together. Pepper came from a difficult past life and is trying to learn that the world is safe and humans can be kind. She arrived very shut down and scared. Pepper is in a foster home now and is slowly learning how to be a dog. She has learned how to take treats from your hand- as long as she is sitting in the safety of her crate. She loves to follow Cheddar outside to the backyard and run around with her. She will then follow Cheddar back inside. Sometimes Pepper actually takes the lead and Cheddar will follow her back inside. They love to run and chase each other! Pepper does not know what to do with a toy, but often fills her crate with them. She also is venturing out of her crate into other rooms more and more. Pepper will need a patient adopter who is willing to give her time to decompress, build trust and come out of her shell at her own pace. While she may be timid now, we believe she has so much potential. She has already made great strides and shown us that she wants affection and wants to feel loved. With time, patience and love, Pepper and Cheddar could truly blossom into wonderful companions!

Rio

Goldendoodle

Female, 6 yrs 6 mos

Delaware, OH

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Rio! 💕 Rio is a sweet girl who is still learning about the world around her and discovering what it means to feel safe and comfortable. She spends much of her time resting, but she enjoys cozy moments on the couch, snuggled up in a blanket with her favorite person, and soaking up the sunshine outside. Rio is making progress with leash walking and is doing well with her potty training, with only one accident in the house so far! Stairs are still a little scary for her, so she currently needs a helping hand (and a carry) to get up and down. Rio will need a patient, understanding home that will give her the time and space she needs to come out of her shell. She may not be ready to show off her playful side just yet, but with love, consistency, and a little time, we believe she has the potential to blossom into a wonderful companion. ❤️

Looking for a cozy, low-key best friend to make your house feel like home? Meet Pumpkin Spice!

Her ideal home? A woman she can bond with, a peaceful routine, and a home where she can be your one and only pup! 💕 Pumpkin Spice may not be the life of the party, but she could be the heart of your home. If your idea of a perfect day includes cozy couch time, quiet companionship, and a loyal bestie who just wants to be near you, she might be the missing ingredient in your life!
