About Peggy

Meet Peggy, a gentle Cocker Spaniel learning to embrace the beauty of life at 6 years old. She came to us as a breeder release, and now it’s her turn to enjoy the love and comfort every dog deserves. Though it took her a few days to adjust in her foster home, she is gradually learning to trust and feel safe. Peggy walks beautifully on a leash and enjoys her outdoor strolls. At night, she sleeps peacefully in her playpen and has been accident-free, showing her progress. As she gains confidence, she's also learning to eat independently with some encouragement. This sweet girl needs a special family—one that is patient and understanding, providing her the time she needs to blossom. If you’re looking for a loyal companion, Peggy could be the cherished little girl you’ve been waiting for. Currently in foster care, meet-and-greets will be arranged with an approved adoption application. Could you be the one to give Peggy her happily ever after? Your new best friend is just one click away.
