About Winnie

Your new best friend is just one click away. Meet Winnie! Found wandering in a rural community in South Georgia, Winnie’s story is touching—she would patiently wait at the bus stop for children each day, but sadly, no one ever came for her. Winnie is an absolutely stunning brindle girl, around 5 years old, with a relaxed and gentle temperament. She would likely be happiest as the Queen of her own castle, yet she gets along well with other dogs if companionship is present. All this lovely lady asks for is a quiet place to bask in the sun and a soft, comfy sofa to curl up on at the end of the day.
