Moonpie is Looking For: This beautiful Havapoo may not have had the easiest start in life, but she's ready to discover what it means to be a cherished family member. Since coming into rescue, she learning that gentle hands, cozy beds, and loving companionship are things she can count on.

With patience, understanding, and a consistent routine, she continues to gain confidence and show more of her loving personality.
She enjoys the company of other friendly dogs and may benefit from having a confident canine companion in her new home to help show her the ropes.
