Thelma (Portland, OR)

Meet Thelma! This tiny warrior with a massive heart is ready to find her forever family. Orphaned at just one day old, she and her sister, Louise, proved to be absolute fighters. As a Heeler Coonhound mix, she inherited the best of both worlds – brains, loyalty, and a beautifully unique look. Thanks to the tireless love and round-the-clock care of dedicated volunteers, these girls didn't just survive – they are thriving! Thelma is a social butterfly and loves people of all ages. She is remarkably well-socialized and has already made friends with people, kids, dogs, cats, and even chickens. She does exceptionally well with other dogs, patiently looking to them for social cues and learning beautifully from their example. Wonderfully happy-go-lucky and eager to learn, traits her clever heeler side loves to show off! Thelma always wants to be near her people and animal friends, and at the same time is remarkably able to self-soothe with her beloved fuzzy bed and favorite stuffy, including settling in for a day at the home office. She's a true dream puppy, striking the perfect balance: social and independent, playful and respectful, and wholly full of joy and eagerness. This resilient, brilliant pup is all heart and has so much love to give!
