With a little patience and a lot of love, she’ll be your loyal shadow and favorite nap buddy in no time. Looking for a gentle, playful pup with heart-melting eyes and a love for squeaky toys? Peach is ready to pick you. She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated and is heartworm negative. If you are interested in adopting Peach, please visit Al-van.org/adopt and fill out an Al-Van Humane Society adoption application.
