Galaxy's Story

Weight: 105Lbs<br/><br/>Meet Galaxy - a 105-lb Lab mix who spent her life giving, but never getting.<br/><br/>Galaxy is severely overweight, not from love or treats, but from years as a breeder release, where her body was used and her world was small. She never learned what walks were for, what toys were, or that a home could be kind. Still, somehow, she came out extraordinarily sweet, gentle, and desperate to be close to people.<br/><br/>She is not potty trained, simply because no one ever taught her. No couch, no routine, no second chances - until now.<br/><br/>Galaxy is standing at the very beginning of life for the first time. First walks. First toys. First soft bed. First time being someone's whole heart instead of a job.<br/><br/>She's starting a slow, healthy weight-loss journey, but what she needs most is a family willing to show her patience, grace, and love.<br/><br/>Galaxy is ready to experience every first she was denied - with you. <br/><br/>Dogs: Unknown, we recommend bringing all pups in to get to know me!<br/>Cats; Unknown<br/>Kids: Unknown, please bring all family members in to meet me!

Galaxy is severely overweight, not from love or treats, but from years as a breeder release, where her body was used and her world was small. She never learned what walks were for, what toys were, or that a home could be kind. Still, somehow, she came out extraordinarily sweet, gentle, and desperate to be close to people.

She is not potty trained, simply because no one ever taught her. No couch, no routine, no second chances - until now.

Galaxy is standing at the very beginning of life for the first time. First walks. First toys. First soft bed. First time being someone's whole heart instead of a job.

She's starting a slow, healthy weight-loss journey, but what she needs most is a family willing to show her patience, grace, and love.

Galaxy is ready to experience every first she was denied - with you.

Dogs: Unknown, we recommend bringing all pups in to get to know me!
