Description:
Meet Pippin, a resilient 2-year-old chi mix on her journey to healing. Once living in fear, she's now ready to find a loving home that understands her past and can help her blossom.Pippin has had a challenging past; she was used for breeding at a young age, and her previous owners prioritized profit over her well-being. Thankfully, those days are behind her. We are committed to ensuring that she will no longer be used for breeding, as she deserves a life filled with love and care.When she was saved, she was living outside in a dog house, lacking the socialization and human contact that every dog deserves. This unfortunate start has led to some behavioral challenges, particularly around food and possessions, as well as deep-seated fears stemming from her past abuse. Her body was covered in scabs and infections when we rescued her, but after months of dedicated medical care, she is transforming into the beautiful girl she was always meant to be. With one blue eye and one brown eye, Pippin is not just charming; she's also learning to trust again.We are looking for a loving home that can continue working through her past traumas and provide her with the patience and understanding she needs. While Pippin is selective about her dog friends, she can play nicely with smaller, playful dogs. In addition to her affectionate side, Pippin has a playful spirit. She absolutely adores her toys and can spend hours entertaining herself with them. However, due to her fear of children, we believe it’s best for her future home to be child-free.Pippin is a sweetheart who absolutely adores being the center of attention. Once she gets to know you, she becomes incredibly affectionate.We are looking for a compassionate home that can continue working through her past traumas. Past experience with abused dogs is a plus.Pippin has been spayed and is now up to date on all her vaccinations. She is also microchipped and currently on heartworm preventive medication, ensuring she stays healthy and safe as she transitions into this new chapter of her life.Interested in adopting this pet?Click here for BCAA's on-line Application!
