Pocahontas, a 5-month-old Goldendoodle, is as playful as she is resilient. Rescued from a breeder release and now in foster care at Dreamweaver Farms in Pacolet, SC, she’s eager to find her forever home. With her fluffy coat and boundless energy, Pocahontas is a classic puppy—curious, playful, and quick to learn—but it’s her unique scars that set her apart.

Adorning her forehead and nose, the scars hint at a mysterious past, but they don’t affect her zest for life. As the rescue puts it: “Scars are cool!” While the hair won’t regrow, Pocahontas is already turning heads with her sweet, submissive personality and adorable looks.

Currently weighing 26 pounds and standing 14 inches tall, Pocahontas is expected to grow into a medium-sized dog, reaching 40–45 pounds and 22–24 inches tall. She’s unspayed due to her young age, and her adoption contract requires spaying within nine months.

The Ideal Home for Pocahontas

This energetic pup thrives in an environment with a physically fenced yard (at least 4 feet tall) where she can play safely. She’s a social butterfly who would benefit from regular socialization, such as off-leash playdates, doggy daycare, or puppy classes that include free play sessions. A home with another young dog would be ideal, but Pocahontas could also thrive as the only dog if her family is committed to frequent socialization opportunities.

For households with cats, Pocahontas has the potential to do well with proper introductions and boundaries.

Personality and Training

Pocahontas is everything you’d expect from a puppy: active, affectionate, and eager to please. She’s already picking up commands quickly, showcasing her intelligence and potential for further training. While not fully housetrained, she’s making progress and will thrive with a consistent schedule and guidance.

Key Details

  • Born: June 8, 2024
  • Adoption Fee: $599
  • Special Needs: Pocahontas is up to date on age-appropriate vaccines but requires specific attention due to her scars and breed-related care needs. She’s not guaranteed to be hypoallergenic or non-shedding.

If you’re looking for a playful, loving companion who’s ready to bring joy and adventure to your life, Pocahontas might just be the perfect fit. Could you be her forever family?
