About Daisy

Meet Little Miss Daisy! Daisy is a charming 14-week-old pup who weighs about 18 pounds. With a possible mix of Black Mouth Cur and Labrador Retriever, she has a lot of personality and even more potential. Rescued from a rural Oklahoma town along with her mama and siblings, Daisy has begun to embrace life indoors, learning and growing in a safe environment. Daisy currently shares a foster home with her brother Boone, relying on each other for comfort. She’s the bolder one, showing a budding desire for cuddles and love as she starts to trust humans. These playful puppies delight in exploring their new world, getting into some mischief, and enjoying the autumn air in their fenced backyard. To really thrive, Daisy would benefit from a friendly canine companion in her forever home who can help bolster her confidence and education. She's searching for a dedicated, patient adopter, one who understands that building trust takes time and is ready to invest love and encouragement in her development. Though she may need some extra time to adjust, watching Daisy discover the joy of being loved is sure to be rewarding. Could you be the one to help this little flower bloom?
