✨ Meet Nougat! This delightful senior sweetheart is full of personality and charm, and she's sure to steal your heart! Nougat is no ordinary pup; she’s a tennis ball enthusiast 🎾 who gets her kicks from games of fetch. Imagine her running back to you, dropping the ball at your feet, and giving it an adorable nudge with her nose when you're taking too long to throw it again! Talk about playing hard to get! At just 13 lbs, Nougat has faced some health hurdles along the way. On December 5th, she bravely underwent surgery to remove several tumors, including two lipomas and one that was possibly cancerous. Fear not, though! The latter was fully removed, and health checks show she’s doing great overall! Adopters should keep a watchful eye for any changes, but with all this good news, Nougat is ready for a loving home. 😊 ✨ Once a family dog, Nougat was surrendered due to changes in her owner’s life. Now, she’s looking for her forever person who can shower her with love. In her foster home in Mequon, WI, she shows no signs of seniority—she enjoys everything from leisurely walks to riveting games of fetch and cozy nap times under blankets (she's a sucker for snoozing next to you!). Nougat is friendly with everyone: other dogs, cats, and even older, respectful children. While she can hold her own outdoors, she does have very low energy most of the time—except when it’s ball-chasing time! Her tail never stops wagging, revealing her pure joy and excitement! ❤️ Nougat prefers companionship, so she thrives in environments where she isn’t left alone for too long. While she can manage a few hours solo, she’d love a snuggle buddy who lets her sneak into bed to sleep all night long! 🛏️ She’s spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations and preventative care. Her potty habits are improving; she will go outside if given regular breaks—but watch out, she may have the odd accident if it’s too cold or if she's overly excited! If you’re captivated by Nougat’s playful spirit and gentle nature, she’s waiting for YOU to take the next step!
