Pua approaches life with the kind of joyful enthusiasm only a happy puppy can pull off. One minute she’s racing around the yard with another dog, ears bouncing and tail wagging at full speed, and the next she’s completely passed out after playtime like she just finished the hardest job in the world. She’s playful, affectionate, and wonderfully curious about everything happening around her. As a Shepherd mix for adoption, Pua is already showing just how smart she is. You’ll love watching her figure things out in real time—whether it’s learning the dog door, understanding potty routines, or proudly settling into her crate at bedtime like a seasoned pro. She’s eager to learn and clearly enjoys being part of family life, happily following along to see what everyone is doing. Despite all that puppy energy, she also has a cuddly side and loves winding down after adventures with a good nap and some affection from her people. Pua thrives around other dogs and would absolutely enjoy having a playful canine companion to wrestle and explore with. Pua is a rescue dog available in Texas and would thrive in an active home ready to continue guiding a smart, growing puppy through all the fun stages of learning and discovery. If you’re hoping to adopt a rescue dog who brings equal parts fun, affection, and personality, Pua may be exactly the dog you’ve been searching for. Addicus' Legacy Dog Rescue is helping her find the forever family she deserves. Pua is available for transport to Long Island, NY (West Islip/North Babylon area), serving adopters throughout Long Island and the greater New York area. Most adopters are within a 1-2 hour drive of our transport meetup. Pickup logistics are arranged at adoption. Ready to adopt Pua?
