Story
Meet Dear Donut, an absolute lovebug pup who is so eager to please!Donut and her sibling, Dumpling (also up for adoption) are two little angels running "at large" in Memphis, they were barely five weeks old when someone found them and brought them to Memphis Animal Services. They were then taken to an emergency vet because they didn't seem to be doing well. There was a third sibling who did not survive, sadly, but these two warriors pulled through and are now safe and sound in one of our southern amazing foster homes.She full of joyful energy! She is just a bit bigger than her sister, built with gorgeous, sturdy mountain-dog charm. Donut is a playful pep who has a cute little "see me" whine when she wants to join in on the fun.Donut is also a certified water pup as you can see here:https://youtube.com/shorts/2NoX5lV4Ohw?feature=shareAnd has splashed her way right into her fosters hearts.She has a wonderful desire to please and is already soaking up all things puppy learning.Both are looking for families who understand that raising a puppy takes time, patience, consistency, and lots of love.
