Don’t let the crown fool you… Poppy is a very trainable princess. 👑🐾

Poppy’s bio might make it sound like Her Royal Highness arrives with an extensive list of demands 😂 but this girl is also smart, engaged and absolutely capable of putting in the work alongside her person.

Poppy is a young, active girl who thrives with enrichment, structure and time with her people. She’s already house trained, does well with her crate, loves puzzle toys and belly rubs, and once you’re part of her inner circle, she wants to be right there with you. 🥹

She isn’t looking for someone to wait on her paw and foot. She’s looking for someone who enjoys working with their dog, continuing her training and giving that busy brain something to do.

🐾 Approx. 1–2 years old
📏 Large
⚧ Spayed female
🏡 House trained
🛏️ Crate trained
🐶 Must be the only dog
🐱 Good with cats
🌳 Not suited to apartment living

Think you could be Poppy’s person? Come meet the girl behind the crown. 👑💜

Jackie believes every day is the best day ever—and she’s looking for someone to spend them with. 💛

🐾 Jackie
🎂 Approx. 2½ years old
📏 Medium-sized
⚧ Spayed female
🧡 Happy, active, affectionate & inquisitive
🐶 Best with calmer dogs
🐱 Good with cats
👧 Kids 10+
🏡 Securely fenced yard required; no apartments or condos
🏠 House training in progress
✨ Crate-trained and comfortable for up to eight hours

This smart, food-motivated girl is learning that people are safe, and she is growing braver every day. Jackie thrives with calm, predictable routines and gentle positive-reinforcement training. She is also learning to respect personal space—even though she would much rather sit right on top of you!

Give Jackie a safe, steady home, and she will give you her whole heart.
