🐾 Meet Pretzel – the pup who’s been twisted by hardship but still has a heart of gold! 🌟 Not too long ago, this sweet soul was scavenging for scraps in a world that seemed to have forgotten him, even resorting to eating a dead bird just to survive. Yet, amid the darkness, there was a flicker of hope in his eyes— and that was the moment everything changed for him. 🌈 Since then, Pretzel has been on a beautiful journey of recovery in a loving foster home, where he’s slowly untangling from the fear and hunger that once defined his life. But now, as much as his foster family adores him, they can no longer keep him due to severe allergies. So, he’s ready to find a new place where he can continue to blossom! 🌸 Oh, Pretzel is the kind of dog who will wrap his heart around yours and hold on tight. ❤️ He’s got that delightful “Velcro dog” charm, always wanting to be near his humans; think of him as your furry best friend and cuddle buddy! This gentle, affectionate soul is crate-trained, quiet, and whip-smart—especially when treats are involved! 🍖 He’s diligently working on his potty training (belly bands are in action for now), becoming a superstar on the leash, and bravely facing his anxiety one day at a time. 💪 Pretzel is a marvelous companion for kids, and he’s dog-friendly too—he just needs some slow and proper introductions. 🐕 He loves nothing more than snuggling up and sleeping soundly through the night, often finding comfort in the glow of a salt lamp and soft music. 🎶 What’s Pretzel’s dream home? A patient family with a fenced yard, a doggy friend to learn from, and people who truly believe in the magic of second chances. 🏡 Pretzel isn’t just looking for a place to stay; he’s longing for a family who will show him that love is everywhere and here to stay. So you see, soft, sweet, and just a tad bit salty, Pretzel is ready to finally feel whole! 🥨 Will you be the lucky one to help him continue his beautiful story? **Adoption is $275**, which includes spay/neuter at our vet, vaccines, dewormer, microchip, and a clean bill of health. Although the wonderful folks at the rescue work hard on potty training, they cannot guarantee full house training before adoption, and regression is a normal part of transitioning to a new home.
