** This is an Out Of Town listing. We transport to the city on this listing. Please apply at www.bit.ly/mu-adopt ** Meet Sarafina! Sarafina’s story didn’t begin the way any puppy’s should. When our volunteers were called out to help a mama dog and her newborn puppies, they walked into a heartbreaking situation. The conditions were beyond terrible. One puppy had already been lost, and another tiny baby was found caught in a chain link fence while flies swarmed around. It’s the kind of scene that stays with you long after you leave. But this little girl? She refused to let that be the end of her story. Now Sarafina is safe in foster care, and honestly? She is making up for lost time. Her days are spent romping around with her siblings, collecting cuddles from her humans, and finding creative new ways to turn ordinary moments into puppy chaos. She’s playful, affectionate, curious about everything, and has that perfect puppy balance of “tiny troublemaker” and “sweet baby angel". One minute she’s bouncing around like she owns the world, and the next she’s melting into your lap for a nap. Sarafina is growing into the kind of dog who will be someone’s loyal sidekick for years to come. She’s young enough to adjust beautifully to other pets and would do well with kiddos sturdy enough to keep up with an active, growing puppy. Of course, puppies are work. There will be chewed toys, early mornings, zoomies through the house, and lots of training along the way. But there will also be laughter, unconditional love, and the kind of bond only a rescue dog can give. Sarafina survived the worst start imaginable. Now she just needs the family who will give her the happy ending she deserves. Think you might be her person?
