Peony is the dog that just radiates sunshine! This girl is the happiest, wiggliest, most hilarious dog who has never had a bad day and neither will her forever family, because they get to soak up the silliness and love that Peony offers in abundance. She is a 5ish year old, 45lb staffie mix who has never met a stranger. She is fantastic with people, kids, dogs, and cats, and will kiss and wiggle her way into everyone's hearts. Despite her exuberance for life, she is wonderful with toddlers, gentle and loving. Peony is amazing with dogs of all sizes and can absolutely adjust her play style depending on the dog she's with. She is also great with cats, having been fostered in a home with 2 cats and never caring to interact with them.
Ideal Home
Peony thrives on routine and structure, so her ideal home will provide her with a lot of guidance inside and outside the home. This includes working on impulse control and settling inside the house, crate training, and proper exercise. When she's given this structure, she is absolutely wonderful. Without something to do, Peony can get overstimulated, but with time and consistency, she will adjust to her forever home's routine.
Ongoing Health
Peony is currently undergoing heartworm treatment and will be able to go to her forever home in mid-August.
Training & Support
Peony is still working on loose leash walking, as she just loves life and wants to run all over the place. Her adopter should be dedicated to working with her on training, and she will need consistency to succeed. Our rescue provides adopters with various training resources to set them up for success. She is potty trained, though an adjustment period is expected with any new dog, and crate trained, though she may cry for a few minutes before settling in.
