My story

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

Meet Apple Dumpling
Apple Dumpling is, without a doubt, the cutest, most fun, goofy, and sweet little dude ever! This lovable pup is fully potty trained, crate trained, and a total snuggle bug. While he had some barrier reactivity in the shelter, he’s shown none of it in a home environment and is thriving with the love and comfort he deserves.

Apple Dumpling is great on walks and absolutely loves to run, explore, and take in the world around him. He’s not reactive to cars, dogs, or bikes, making him a joy to take out on adventures. He’s both dog-friendly and cat-friendly, though he’s selective about his companions—he did well with kitties but might get a little too playful at times. He’s also a superstar in the car, settling in easily for the ride.

This playful pup adores his stuffies and will happily romp around with them, but his affectionate side is where he truly shines. Apple Dumpling will somersault into your lap, nestle his head into you for cuddles, and curl into a tiny ball to sleep by your side all night. His goofy personality and sweet snuggles make him impossible not to fall in love with.

Apple Dumpling is really struggling with life in the shelter and urgently needs an immediate foster or forever family. If you’re looking for a loyal, snuggly, and endlessly entertaining companion, Apple Dumpling is ready to fill your home with love and joy!
