About Peaches

Meet Peaches. She’s as sweet as her name, and she’s lucky to be here; Peaches was on the euthanasia list at a Houston shelter before getting a well-deserved second chance. Around three years old and an Anatolian Shepherd mix, she’s not just a survivor—she’s also the proud mama of Biscuit, who’s also with the rescue. Peaches comes with a little more confidence than her pup and could be won over by just about anyone with treats. She craves affection, thrives on gentle attention, and wants nothing more than to feel secure. Peaches would do best with another dog in the home to help her settle in. She has a strong prey drive, so a house without cats is recommended. Give her someone calm and patient, and she’ll show her gratitude in spades. Ready to fall in love?
