At just 10 months old, Piper has already experienced the ups and downs of shelter life. She arrived as a stray on 7/31/2025 with her more confident sister, but despite being the “boss” between the two, Piper was shy and fearful in her outdoor kennel. After recovering from a cold in isolation, she finally showed her true colors once paired with another happy dog friend, Taffy—and now she’s thriving! With her red and white coat and soulful brown eyes, Piper is as adorable as she is resilient.
