About June

June started life in a packed, high-risk shelter, where even as a tiny puppy her time was running out. She made it out thanks to a last-minute rescue—a rare stroke of luck that gave her and her siblings the shot every young dog deserves: a safe space, a soft bed, and a chance to play instead of worry. Even after what she’s been through, June stays honest and open-hearted. She wants to be near people and always shows that eager, puppyish need to connect. Curiosity gets her moving; June explores everything, picks up on new smells, and wants in on whatever is happening. Play is always on the table, but so is a quiet nuzzle or a flop into your lap. She’s learning the world can be kind. A good home for June will take patience and consistency. She isn’t house trained yet and needs someone willing to keep building her confidence. In return, she’ll keep growing into a devoted, steady companion who just wants to belong somewhere real. June is good with dogs, cats, and children, so there’s plenty of potential for her to fit right into family life. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
