Meet Mushu…

Mushu is just a baby. At only 12 weeks old, this tiny Lab/Chow mix (that’s our best guess) has already experienced more neglect than any soul ever should. We know his mama, Princess, is a sweet cream Chow mix with the gentlest heart. We don’t know who Dad is — and without a costly DNA test our rescue simply can’t afford — we can only guess from Mushu’s soft features and soulful eyes that there may be Lab in him too.

What we do know is how his story began.

Mushu, his six siblings, and their mama were pulled from a very high-kill shelter in Georgia. When they arrived to us, Mama Princess was soaked in urine. Her babies — including little Mushu — were drenched the same way, their tiny fur matted and caked with feces. They were dirty, uncomfortable, and failed long before they ever had a chance to be loved. It’s heartbreaking to imagine their first memories of this world being so cold and unkind.

And yet… Mushu still wags his tail.

He is a typical rambunctious puppy, full of innocent joy, bouncing around as if his past never happened. He is unbelievably sweet, trusting, and eager for affection — as if he’s choosing to believe the world can still be good.

Mushu will be ready for adoption at 8 weeks old, and we are currently accepting applications for this precious little nugget. He will receive his first round of vaccinations prior to adoption. His adopter will be responsible for his remaining vet visits and vaccinations. Our rescue will schedule and cover the cost of his neuter when he is old enough.

Mushu deserves a life that looks nothing like his beginning. He deserves clean blankets, gentle hands, and a family who will never let him feel forgotten again.
