Cadence

If there were a way to guarantee a great family dog, Cadence would come pretty close.<br/><br/>She's already done it all. She's lived in a home, been loved by a family, and proved herself to be an incredible companion every step of the way.<br/><br/>Cadence recently returned to our care through absolutely no fault of her own. Her family loved her dearly, and saying goodbye was a heartbreaking decision made because of circumstances beyond their control. They had nothing but amazing things to say about her, and honestly, we're not surprised.<br/><br/>Now almost 2 years old and a healthy 50 pounds, Cadence has grown from the injured puppy we once rescued into an incredible family dog. Her previous family described her as perfect in the home. She's wonderful with children, great with other dogs, and was even trusted to help care for newborn kittens.<br/><br/>She's house trained, knows her commands, and has a quirky, fun-loving personality that keeps life entertaining. Whether she's making you laugh with her silly antics, playing with her dog friends, or sticking close to her favorite people, Cadence brings joy wherever she goes.<br/><br/>The hardest part of Cadence's story is that she's already proven she can be someone's beloved pet. She knows what it's like to have a home, and she deserves to have that again.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a dog who is loving, loyal, family-friendly, and guaranteed to keep you smiling, Cadence is waiting to meet you.<br/><br/>*Reminder* We are currently facilitating adoptions through appointment only.
