📍 Available for Adoption | Sweet, Snuggly Shelter Pup in Need of a Patient Home
Meet Ug-Pup, a tender-hearted girl who has come a long way since arriving at the shelter frightened and unsure. With patience, kindness, and consistency from shelter staff, this sweet girl has begun to blossom—and now she’s ready to find the loving home she truly deserves.
When approached at her kennel, Ug-Pup greets familiar faces with gentle tail wags, excitement, and soft eyes. She takes treats politely and delicately, walks well on leash, and shows no reactivity toward other dogs in passing. Most of all, she’s a snuggle bug, happiest when leaning against you or curling up at your side.
🧡 Why Ug-Pup Deserves a Chance

- Leash-friendly and responsive
- Shows no kennel reactivity toward other dogs
- Loyal and loving—wants nothing more than to be close to her person
- Needs a calm, patient home to help her decompress and build confidence
While she didn’t connect well with another dog during a shelter meet, Ug-Pup just needs time and gentle support before being introduced to new canine companions. Right now, she’s looking for a home where she can be the focus of someone’s love.
🏡 Ideal Home for Ug-Pup
- Patient and dog-savvy adopter(s)
