About Temple

Temple has overcome a lot in her time at the rescue. After arriving injured and underweight, she’s gradually built up her strength and is now heartworm negative—a big milestone. Most days you’ll catch her wagging her tail and accepting treats, though she’s still shy, especially in busy or noisy settings. Temple hasn’t shown any aggression, just fear, and continues to improve in the right company. She does well with her canine roommate, Vera, and has started joining in more play groups, though she’s selective about her friends. For Temple, the ideal adopter is someone who can provide a steady, calm home, patience, and lots of gentle encouragement. She’ll need time to settle in and blossom, but given what she’s already endured and accomplished, she’s ready for a second chance. If you want to truly make a difference, Temple is worth it.
