Meet Shirley
Shirley may be little, but she has already faced a big challenge. She and her sister, Laverne, were dropped off at a shelter in Georgia while fighting parvo, an illness no puppy should ever have to face so early in life.
Thankfully, Shirley now has the chance to leave that difficult beginning behind and look forward to a brighter future. She deserves all the things every puppy should know: a safe place to call home, a family to guide her, and people who will love her unconditionally.
There is so much life waiting for this sweet girl. From growing up and discovering the world to finding her favorite toys and curling up beside her favorite people, Shirley deserves to experience it all.
Her past does not have to define her future. All she needs now is a family willing to make her part of theirs forever.
