My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Matilda is a precious 7-year-old Papillon with a heart full of love and a story that speaks to her incredible resilience. After being rescued from a commercial breeder, Matilda has faced more than her fair share of challenges, including severe malnourishment and two surgeries on her right front leg to repair breaks. Despite everything she has been through, she is a gentle, loving soul who is now ready to find her forever home.
Matilda is seeking a special person where she will be the absolute focus of their world. Her ideal home will be calm and serene-one without children, other pets, or stairs, as she needs a quiet environment where her physical and emotional needs are met. Matilda has had dental surgery, leaving her with only four teeth, so she enjoys moist, easy-to-eat food that keeps her tummy happy.
While Matilda wasn't housebroken when she arrived, she has been making steady progress and is learning to use potty pads. She is a physically delicate little lady, so gentle handling and patience are essential. Thunderstorms and loud noises can still be very scary for her, and her new family will need to provide her with comfort and security during those times.
But what Matilda truly shines at is giving and receiving love. She has a heart of gold and is looking for someone who will shower her with attention and cherish every moment together. If you're ready to open your heart and home to this brave, loving girl, Matilda will be a devoted and affectionate companion.
