About Petunia

Petunia is a delightful 2-year-old, 20-pound snuggle bug who adores being part of a family. Rescued as a stray, she has adapted well in her foster home and is now looking for her forever family. Petunia gets along with dogs, cats, and children, making her an ideal companion for various households. She's house trained, walks well on a leash, and enjoys car rides. Recently, she's been proudly demonstrating her ability to sit on command. Her foster mom shares that while Petunia can be a little shy initially, a gentle rub on her oversized ears quickly wins her over. She loves to cozy up next to you or even in your lap, often striking amusing poses to ensure you give her just the right amount of affection. Petunia has a playful side and might claim any unattended socks as her own, adding them to her crate. Though she’s crate trained, she also cherishes snuggling in bed. A quieter home would help her transition smoothly, allowing her to blossom. Petunia is spayed, microchipped, and current on all vaccinations and preventives, ready for her new family to spoil her with love and attention. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
