About Cucumber

You’ll spot Cucumber right away at the shelter: ten months old, small, and so charming you wonder how she hasn’t already been scooped up. Her name fits—Cucumber is sweet, relaxed, and a little offbeat in the best way. She’s come all the way from rural Alabama searching for a loving home, but she doesn’t ask for much. Mostly, Cucumber wants a soft spot to snooze and someone to remind her she’s a good girl. She’s about 20 pounds and easy to bring everywhere. Cucumber genuinely loves people, especially kids, and gets along with other dogs, making her an easy fit for households of just about any shape. Her specialty is the full-on dog hug—long, warm, and surprisingly human-like. It’s hard to resist the sense of gratefulness she brings to every gentle moment. Give her a scratch behind the ear or let her curl up next to you, and you’ll see what everyone at the shelter means when they call her special. All her core vaccines are current, she’s been spayed, and she’s heartworm negative. Now she just needs the right adopter to take her home and make sure she’ll never be overlooked again.
