Tofu - Mutt Female Dog For Adoption in Catasauqua, Pennsylvania, USA

Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat).

Tofu Survived the Unthinkable — Now She’s Ready for Her Next Chapter Tofu survived the unthinkable. She was found alone along a creek in Philadelphia—starved, unable to get up, and covered in pressure sores that were almost down to the bone. When she first came to us, we weren't sure what her future would look like. But Tofu had something we couldn't measure on a scale or in a medical chart: she wanted to live. And look at her now. This girl is flourishing. As she has healed and gained strength, we've gotten to know the dog underneath all that suffering—and she is pretty incredible. We were actually surprised to discover that someone, at some point in her life, had taken the time to train Tofu. She knows her basic commands and wants to please. Tofu has just finished a heat cycle and still has a little weight to gain before she can safely be spayed. Because of that, we are looking for a local foster-to-adopt home where she can continue to thrive while we get her to the finish line. And when we say LOCAL, we mean it. We are looking for a home within approximately one hour of our veterinary offices in PA or NJ so we can continue to monitor her progress and make sure she gets everything she needs. What we've learned about Tofu: She LOVES routine and does best when she knows what to expect. About 2 years old She knows her basic commands! She can live with other low-energy dogs, with the proper introduction. She will absolutely need a shutdown/decompression period when entering a new home. She has been through enough, and we don't want her coming into a new environment thinking she immediately runs the roost. Her biggest downfall? Counter surfing. But tell this girl "NO" and she gets it. Tofu doesn't need someone to save her anymore. She needs someone to finish the job. Someone willing to give her the routine, patience, stability and love that will allow her to continue becoming the dog we always knew was hiding underneath the trauma. She has fought incredibly hard to get here. Now we'd love nothing more than to watch her flourish in a home of her own.
