My story

Meet Pearl!Pearl is 50% piglet, 50% baby, and 100% good girl!We know, we know, she's a BiG BaD pITtIE oh nooooo.🙄Pearl is more inclined to snuggle under the covers with you and steal your chicken nuggets than do literally anything else. She's 60lbs of buttercream frosting and, at four years old, she's full grown. She's a wiggleworm in the sense that, as soon as you touch her, she absolutely EXPLODES with joy and kisses and then good luck getting her to calm down. She doesn't know what a stranger is, she only sees people she doesn't know as "potential new best friends". She's a social butterfly that wants to be the center of attention at any given time and a plague on both your houses if you don't make it happen!Pearl is very enthusiastic about meeting new dogs and, same as people, she just sees everyone as a potential best friend. However...it is the scariest thing in the WORLD when another dog tries to jump on her. Absolutely terrifying. She'll never emotionally recover from this...until she does and forgets all about it. Rinse and repeat. Dogs with dog manners would be the best match for her because then maybe they'll rub off on her. Cats may not be the best idea PURELY because she has no concept of boundaries or personal space and will absolutely antagonize a cat until it whacks her. We would prefer kids 12+ because we unfortunately don't have a history on her so we're not sure if she's ever been around kids or not, however exceptions may be made for the right family with the right experience. You must own your own home or live in a home owned by a family member simply because she is unfortunately considered a restricted breed. To apply, visit foreverpaws.com and click adopt to download our application. Once complete, you can email it to us at fpas1@foreverpaws.com or fax it to us at 508-677-9175.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Pearl, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
