My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Peyton, a 3-year-old Westie mix with a heart waiting to heal. He came to us severely matted and neglected, surrendered by a family who didn’t have time for him. Understandably, Peyton is scared and protective, needing someone patient, kind, and willing to give him the time he deserves to rebuild trust. He is not suited for a home with children, but in the right environment, Peyton has the potential to blossom into a loyal companion. If you have a quiet, loving home and the patience to earn his trust, Peyton could be the perfect fit for you.
