Peach

My story

Hello, my name is: PeachDOB: 04/24/2021Sex/Breed: Spayed female Boxer/Staffie/Pittie Princess mixWeight: 45 lbsFriends: Adults, kidsTraits: Active, loyal, resilient, friendlyRescued From: Found strayPeach`s story is one of resilience and mama bear smarts. Her rescue began as a stray, roaming a peach tree orchard. Kind folks kept watch and when she showed up again looking very pregnant a plan was put into place to try to capture her and bring her to safety. It was winter, and frigid temperatures were forecasted. This street-smart mama eluded capture and ended up giving birth to her puppies in a crawl space under a church, choosing a far corner where heat billowed out of a vent. Temperatures were in the single digits, so the fact that Peach found such a warm spot undoubtedly saved her puppies’ lives. Mama was trapped safely, and her puppies were rescued from the crawl space. The little family was transferred to a foster home and Peach had the opportunity to dote on her puppies without worrying about survival. They were warm, fed, comfortable, and loved. Peach was a wonderful mama and was so grateful for the kindness she was shown by her rescuers and foster family. Now that her puppies are old enough to find homes of their own, mama is ready too! Peach has been a dream companion and doesn’t ask for much. She is an active girl who loves to play and run around outside. She’d love a big fenced in yard at her forever home and boy does she deserve anything she wants after surviving such hardships and keeping her little family alive. Peach is crate trained, seems house trained, and is overall pretty quiet and easy-going. Being with her people is her favorite thing, meeting new human friends with ease. If you are looking for an adventure buddy, Peach is your gal! As long as she is with you, she is happy! The devotion she shows for her people is unwavering. While she loves people, she’s been selective when it comes to other dogs. Given her history and having to fend for herself, we don’t blame her for being untrusting in this way. After everything she has endured, Peach deserves to be the center of her family’s attention as the only pet. Peach does get along with other dogs and likes to socialize with them, especially outdoors! We understand there aren’t many homes looking for a dog that prefers to be a solo companion, but that won’t stop us from searching far and wide for someone who will devote themselves to Peach just as she will to
