In the shelter’s words

<3 A Special Note About Me I'm part of Pawfect Match's Special Care & Rehabilitation Program. My journey is a little different than most.Some of us are healing from medical conditions. Some of us are learning to trust. Some of us have special needs or require a very specific home to thrive. While we're always open to meeting the right family, our priority is making sure we're happy, healthy, and loved every step of the way. For me, that means it would take a truly special home—someone who understands my unique needs and is committed to giving me the life I deserve. If that person comes along, we'd love to hear from them! Until then, Pawfect Match is proud to be my safety net and my family. My care doesn't stop after my rescue. Food, medications, routine veterinary care, enrichment, and lots of love are all part of my everyday life. If you'd like to be part of my journey, please consider making a donation toward my daily care. Every gift, no matter the size, helps dogs like me continue to receive the second chances we deserve._________________ Pumpkin is a BIG GIRL that sadly found herself at the shelter. She is currently working on losing weight and finding her furever home!! Don't let her size intimidate you - she is just full of love - like a giant warm HUG!!! Pumpkin has clearly been loved before, she knows several commands (sit, shake, speak, stay, spin)! She is completely house trained and very well behaved! Her personality is the SWEETEST! Pumpkin LOVES to LOVE. If you are wanting a velcro dog that finds joy in being your shadow. She is your girl!!! She would love to join you on walks (she has great leash manners and does not pull)! She would love to join you on the couch to watch movies and cuddle (free kisses included)! She would love to join you for rides in the car - she lights up with excitement if you ask "do you wanna go?!"Pumpkin is very polite and calm, but she enjoys short games of fetch and chew toys. She does great for nail trims and all grooming. Pumpkin would be best as the only dog, she has a tendancy to resource guard. She lives nicely with cats and is even caught napping with them! If you want an EXTRA SWEET Pumpkin Spice Latte, look no further!!! *Photos courtesy of Five Freedoms Photography - www.fivefreedomsphotography.com The adoption fee is $400, which covers food, vetting, microchip and the spay/neuter surgery performed by a rescue-affiliated vet. All dogs receive a wellness visit and are up to date on shots appropriate for age. Breed and size is Pawfect Match Rescue's best guess and not guaranteed.
