Just a few weeks ago, 2-year-old Dovey was found abandoned in a park, so matted she couldn’t even walk. She had been left sitting on hot concrete, crying, completely unable to move. Once she was shaved, losing nearly 4 pounds of matted fur, she came to life—running, playing, and finally able to move freely again. Today, she’s a happy, affectionate 19-pound Cockapoo who loves everyone she meets and is ready for the loving forever home she deserves.

Why She’s the Ultimate Social Butterfly
🐾 Loves everyone—dogs, cats, kids, and adults alike
🏃‍♀️ Moderately energetic and a great walking or running partner
🐶 A favorite at doggy daycare—she’s one of the “cool kids”
🦴 Adjusts well to new people and situations
💖 Extremely affectionate and always ready for cuddles

What She’s Looking For
✔️ A patient adopter who will help her continue house and crate training
✔️ Someone who understands her history and will help her gain confidence
✔️ A home where she can enjoy regular walks, playtime, and companionship
✔️ A loving family who will make up for the hard years she’s endured

Dovey has survived unimaginable neglect and still greets the world with love and trust. She’s blossomed into a joyful, social, and resilient little dog, and she’s ready to start her new chapter with a family who will cherish her forever. If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal companion who will love you unconditionally, Dovey is waiting to meet you.
