Meet Twiggy, a brave little survivor who’s finally learning how to be a puppy again. Found on the roadside after being hit by a car—with a broken leg, fractured kneecap, and covered in ticks—Twiggy’s journey has been anything but easy. After two surgeries and weeks of healing in her foster home, this sweet girl is slowly regaining her strength. Though still wobbly and needing a bit of help, Twiggy’s gentle heart and resilient spirit shine through every day.
Why She’s the Ultimate Gentle Warrior
🐾 Puppy at heart, despite her tough start
🐶 Learning to walk, play, and build confidence after surgeries
💛 Exceptionally kind and gentle—doesn’t have a mean bone in her body
🐕 Loves other dogs, does great with cats, and is even good with chickens!
🧸 Recently discovered toys and her silly side
🚪 Goes to the door to potty; uses training pads if needed
🛏️ Enjoys gentle play and cuddles as she heals
What She’s Looking For
✔️ A patient, loving home to help her continue recovering and gaining strength
✔️ Gentle leash walks or securely fenced yard (no rough play yet)
✔️ Someone willing to work on basic training like sit, stay, and recall
✔️ A home without heavy stair use or crates she can’t enter on her own
✔️ A promise she’ll never be hurt or abandoned again
Twiggy has survived so much, yet her heart remains pure and her spirit sweet. She’s looking for a family who will see her not as broken, but as brave—and love her for the gentle soul she is. If you’ve got space in your heart for a special little dog who simply deserves the world, Twiggy is waiting to meet you.
