About Valentina

Valentina's story showcases her resilience and hope. At just 4 months old, she was found wandering the streets, alone and in need. Thankfully, she was rescued and soon adopted, but due to severe allergies and frequent travel, her first adopter had no choice but to find her a new home. Now, this sweet girl is ready for her second chance. Valentina is a social butterfly who loves meeting new faces, and she quickly wins everyone over with her friendly demeanor. She gets along beautifully with other dogs, bringing a joyful spirit to any playtime. However, Valentina does have hip dysplasia. This condition means she may not be as active as other dogs, and she’ll thrive in a caring environment that understands her needs. She adores being close to her people, soaking up affection, and spreading love wherever she goes. If you're looking for a loyal companion with a heart as lovely as her smile, Valentina is eager to make your home brighter. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let’s get started.
