Pearl and her 6 sibilings came into Animal Control care at only ONE day old! Sadly their mama passed away while giving birth to them. At 1 week old, they came to us and have been in their amazing foster homes ever since. They've received the very best care and have all been able to be around adult doggos that have been their surrogate mamas so they've had the opportunity to be well socialised with other dogs and have also had the benefit of staying with their littermates, which means they have had the ability to learn all the good things any pupper needs to learn from their littermates too. Because they have all been bottle fed, they are also very affectionate and social pups with hoomans too.

Pearl is still a baby so she will need someone home with her at least some of the day.

Pearl (or "lil dot" as she's affectionately known) is a confident, happy little miss who loves kids and loves new experiences. She is always on the hunt for new adventures or new toys to play with and loves to explore the garden.

Pearl is in a foster home with her brother as well as two adult dogs, who she loves to play with and follow around. She would love a home with another dog to learn all the good things from and play with. She met the cat in her foster home and showed no interest, she is at the right age to learn how to be friends with them so with proper introductions, she would be fine in a home with a cat. She's also met a turtle, pig and cows. Being a bold puppy, she has ventured into Daisy the pigs paddock. She soon left when Daisy got too close!

Pearl has been around kids since she came into our care, she is so happy to see people, we believe she would do well in a home with kids 5+ who are gentle and kind but that would love to play with her. She'd love a home with hoomans who will enjoy taking her on daily walks and weekend adventures, seeing the world together as well as someone to cuddle up with on the couch in the evenings of course.

her foster mum says: "Pearl loves new people and is a real sweety. She' loves to explore and find cool things to play with, she's easy to have around and loves a good snuggle - but she likes to just hang out too. She's a great blend of snuggle bug and independence."

Pearl will need a family committed to making sure she learns all the things a good pupper should know so she can grow into a good doggy citizen.
