Peanut is a sweet and affectionate dog who loves being around people. She has a calm and laid-back personality, making her a wonderful companion. Peanut has been in a foster home for the past few months, where she has lived with other dogs, though she is likely dog-selective and would need a proper meet-and-greet with any potential canine housemates. She has been indifferent toward the cats in her foster home. Peanut is house-trained and enjoys spending time outdoors, so a home where she can bask in the sun during the day would be ideal. If you're looking for an easy-going loving and loyal companion, Peanut might be the perfect match.

Peanut was among a number of dogs that a neighboring city's animal control had impounded from a home after Peanut's owner was deemed as having too many dogs. Peanut had recently had a litter of 6 pups at that time, sadly, only two of those pups survived and were adopted through SoCo Rescue. We were able to rescue Peanut and her pups just one day before they all would have been euthanized by the city's shelter.

Peanut has been fully vetted and is currently up-to-date on all vaccinations, de-worming and monthly preventative care. While she was heartworm positive when she first arrived, Peanut did receive treatment for her heartworms and is now free and clear of them. was also heartworm positive at the time but has since been treated for them.
