About Winter

Winter is 8 months old and has already overcome more than most dogs do in a lifetime. She was found wandering a complex with other strays, having survived injuries that left her with a broken tail, a broken back foot, and the loss of a toe—likely when she was very young. Despite everything, Winter’s spirit is unbroken. Now safe and fully vetted, she’s putting on weight, learning crate and potty training, and showing off her playful, silly side. She’s a wiggly, affectionate pup who loves the company of other dogs and always seems up for couch cuddles or dressing up in tutus and sweaters. Her past hasn’t diminished how much love she has to give. Winter is proof that resilience thrives in even the smallest packages. All she needs now is a family to call her own. If you’re looking for a puppy with a story of strength and a genuine love for life, Winter is ready to meet you. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
