caliper

Caliper has only been in foster care for a few days, and she's already got her favorite person completely wrapped around her paw.

She's sweet, curious, and has a very quiet, gentle manner about her. She's going to follow you from room to room, check in on what you're doing, decide you're pretty great, and just... stay. She's a velcro dog and has absolutely no apologies about it. And why should she?
Caliper has also, for the record, not had a single indoor accident. Not one. She goes outside in her designated spot every time! She just needs her person standing nearby while she does it, which, when you think about it, is a completely reasonable request, and we respect it.

She's still building confidence around loud noises and new situations, and slow introductions to other dogs will set her up for success, but the progress she's already made in just a few days is remarkable. She tolerates baths, ear cleaning, and paw handling like a champ.

Caliper would thrive with a patient, loving family who's happy to be her safe place as she continues to come out of her shell. She's not the loudest dog in the room, but she is the one you can't stop thinking about after you've met her!

A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters:
Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained. Most come from tough or uncertain beginnings and may have never lived in a home or known basic routines. That means:

✧ They are not potty trained on arrival. Most dogs regress in potty training when moving to a new environment.

✧ They may lack basic manners (like leash walking or appropriate chewing).

✧ They’re learning, growing, and doing their best—but they will need patience, structure, and compassion to succeed.

The majority of these pups have lived in the confinement of a cage or kennel run for most - if not all - of their lives. Because of this, we strongly discourage the use of crates for anything other than vehicle transport. They deserve the chance to decompress and learn what true freedom and comfort feel like.

Our amazing foster homes work hard to start these dogs on the right path, but they are rescues, not finished products. These dogs need time, consistency, and a loving home willing to meet them where they are.

Also, breed designations are our best guesses based on appearance and behavior. We can't guarantee breed, size, adult weight, or coat type.
