About Karma

Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you. Karma's journey to finding love began with a dramatic street rescue. Darting through traffic in Tulsa, she narrowly avoided danger before a caring group stepped in to save her. Once used as a breeding dog and then abandoned, she ended up in safe hands when her previous owners gave her up. Against the odds, Karma has transformed from a timid, underweight girl into a happy, healthy companion. She’s now heartworm-free, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, spayed, and has fully embraced the joys of being a pet. Karma absolutely adores other dogs and children, showing off her classic pittie wiggle whenever she’s happy. She’s house and crate trained, loves playing with toys, and is a big fan of snuggle time. Her calm nature and quiet demeanor make her perfect for apartment life, and her playful spirit brings smiles wherever she goes. Although she’s currently a bit overweight, her petite build remains evident and she’s ready for walks and play to help her stay fit. Karma is seeking an adopter who will give her the security and affection she truly deserves. She is available to adopt anywhere in the United States. Did you know she’s a Scorpio?
