DOLCE - PUG / BEAGLE / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Pug / Beagle / Mixed. Dolce is a 4-year-old, 15 lb sweetheart with a big heart and a very small personal bubble. If there’s a lap nearby, she plans to be in it. She came from the same Texas situation as Bear, where inconsistent care left her anxious and constantly trying to escape the yard. In foster care, with structure and safety, she has settled beautifully. Dolce is affectionate, playful, and very attached to her person. She enjoys walks, toys, and cozy blankets. She rides well in the car and does well crated with Bear. She has been exposed to other dogs of various sizes and has done well. She is currently living with a dog savvy cat and has adjusted appropriately. In a prior foster home, she lived with a 9-year-old child and very much enjoyed the attention and affection. She may bark briefly at new dogs or when someone enters the home, then settles once she realizes everything is safe. She is still finishing her full potty routine consistency in a new environment, so adopters should expect to continue reinforcing structure during transition. Dolce is deeply bonded to Bear. When separated from him, her stress increases significantly. He is her anchor and emotional safety net. For that reason, they must remain together. Dolce is loving, loyal, and happiest when she can snuggle close. She needs a home that appreciates affection, routine, and the joy of a built-in best friend pair. Dolce will only be adopted with Bear. Dolce and Bear are safe now. They are healing. And for the first time, they are being properly cared for. If you are looking for a bonded pair and understand what it means to commit to two dogs who have already been through enough, this pair might be for you. This dog is up to date on vaccinations and is spayed or neutered. (Please note: Puppies under 3 months old may not be sterilized prior to adoption. If this is the case, your adoption coordinator will provide guidance on the process.) To adopt or learn more about this dog, you must complete an adoption application, which can be found on our website: .sandypawsrescue. PLEASE READ: • If a dog or puppy is listed, they are currently available for adoption. However, they may already be pending an adoption, and their profile may not yet reflect this. • All information is accurate to the best of our knowledge as of the posting date. • Unless explicitly stated, Sandy Paws Rescue does not guarantee the breed of any dog. Breeds listed are educated guesses made by shelter staff, volunteers, or veterinarians. Many of our dogs are mixed breeds, often with pit bull-type genetics, resulting in a wide variety of physical traits and temperaments. Our dogs come from various situations, such as kill shelters, owner surrenders, or as strays. It is likely both parents were mixed breeds as well. Sandy Paws Rescue does not have a public shelter in Massachusetts. Our dogs reside in private foster homes or boarding kennels in the South until adopted. Many dogs are spoken for prior to transport or release from state-mandated isolation. For information on adoption fees, procedures, or FAQs, visit our website: .sandypawsrescue. The FIRST step in adopting from Sandy Paws Rescue is to submit a completed adoption application.
