Meet Pumpkin!
Pumpkin is a gorgeous senior dog, at 9.5 years old. She is in great shape for her age, has been fully vetted, and just recently had a dental cleaning. Pumpkin was surrendered because she doesn’t like young kids, and her original owners had a new baby.
She is currently in a foster home and is totally stealing her foster-mom’s heart, so we know she is a lovebug. She does have some anxiety, but once she is comfortable, she does just fine. According to her foster, she can be reactive towards passing vehicles and squirrels, so does best on quiet streets and quiet times for her walks. She is great with other dogs, gentle, loves to cuddle on the couch, and loves to roll in the grass. She rarely barks inside, except for a couple minutes when she’s first left alone. There are cats in her current foster home.
She’s a mystery mutt who was originally adopted from a shelter in the States, and she just needs somewhere to call “home”!
Pumpkin is available for adoption through the Burlington Humane Society. If you fall in love and want to adopt one of the pets featured, go to the Adopt a Cat or Kitten or the Adopt a Dog or Puppy page on their website for more information on how to proceed.
