Meet Zula! 🌟 This radiant girl was rescued from the Gastonia Shelter, where she was found as a stray—pregnant and extremely emaciated. Can you imagine the journey she’s been on? We brought her into our loving arms, hoping to help her get healthy enough to welcome her puppies into the world. Yet, life threw her a curveball, and unfortunately, she experienced a heartbreaking miscarriage of all seven puppies. 💔 But Zula, like a phoenix, rose from the ashes! After healing both emotionally and physically, she’s ready to find her forever home. This beautiful bundle of joy is a puppy at heart, so sometimes her excitement leads her to get a little mouthy and nippy. Don't worry though, she’s been working hard on her training and is learning to walk gracefully on a leash without pulling too much. Now, let’s dive into what makes Zula so special: - She absolutely adores soaking up the sun—nothing makes her happier than a warm patch on the grass! ☀️ - Zula is a fetch fanatic and can entertain herself for hours with her beloved rope toy. 🎾 - This sweetheart is not just affectionate; she’s a Cuddler! 🤗 - Smart as a whip, Zula picks up new tricks faster than you can say ‘fetch!’ 🧠 - She’s crate trained and loves her cozy space—willingly snoozing all night. - Thunderstorms? Fireworks? No problem! This girl remains calm and collected. 😌 - Playful and eager to please, Zula is great at basic commands and finishes her puzzle toys faster than you might expect! 🧩 - When it’s time to unwind, you can find her lounging comfortably in her doggie bed. Zula would thrive in an active family with older children who can give her the attention she deserves. If you’re committed to training her—don’t worry, the team will assist every step of the way! 💪 Oh, and guess what? Zula is also available for FOSTER! If you can offer her a temporary home, that would be fabulous as she’s a bit too energetic for her current fosters. ❤️ Embrace the joy of bringing this wonderful pup into your family by applying to adopt or foster Zula through the *Buddy App*! 🌈 There’s a loving companion waiting for you, so take that step towards changing a life today!
