🌟 Introducing Peaches! This sweet, resilient 53-pound hound has truly seen more hardship than any pup should ever have to endure. Yet, her spirit remains untouched—gentle, hopeful, and radiating love like the sun! 🌼 Peaches is a middle-aged lady who has had many litters but has seldom experienced the warmth of comfort and affection. But this brave girl is ready to embrace a future where she can finally be cherished! ❤️ When Peaches was abandoned in Kentucky, she faced the elements on her own, relying on the occasional human interaction to get by. As a result, many typical “house dog” skills are new to her—not because she doesn’t want to learn, but because no one ever had the time to show her what it feels like to truly belong. Now, safe in her foster home, she’s blossoming more every day, eager to bond and thrive! 🐾 Peaches is friendly with other dogs, especially the calm, gentle ones! However, she prefers a home without small children—not out of any aggression, but simply because she’s still figuring out healthy boundaries after a lifetime of uncertainty. Imagine her, feeling safest in a fenced yard where she can potty without worry—the sense of security allows her to settle in at her own pace. And when her humans step out, Peaches loves curling up in a cozy crate of her own—it’s her little sanctuary where she feels protected while she builds trust. 🏠 Once in New Jersey, Peaches needed treatment for heartworm, Lyme disease, and a surgery for her ureter. Through all this, she remained loving and brave, captivating everyone at the vet with her quiet gratitude. Now, she’s healthy—a true testament to her incredible resilience! 🥳 Peaches is looking for adoptive parents who are patient, gentle, and preferably experienced. She needs folks who understand that healing takes time and who find joy in teaching a once-forgotten pup what security and love are all about. If you feel that special tug at your heartstrings for this deserving soul ready to experience her second chance, Peaches might just be the perfect match for you! 💞 Remember, potential adopters must apply through the Buddy App to adopt this lovely girl. Thank you for considering giving Peaches the loving forever home she’s been dreaming of!
