Pumpkin

Meet Pumpkin, a delightful 4-year-old black Labrador with a heart as warm as her coat. Pumpkin is not just a pet; she's a loyal companion who loves kids and gets along famously with other pets. Her gentle nature and affectionate personality make her the perfect addition to any loving home.

Pumpkin has a unique story that adds to her charm. Unfortunately, her owner passed away six months ago. In the midst of grief, Pumpkin found solace with a caring family who helped her adjust to the changes life brought her. While this family has given Pumpkin the love and support she needed during this challenging time, their busy work travel schedule prevents them from providing the consistent attention she deserves.

Now, Pumpkin is in search of her forever home—a place where she can continue to thrive, surrounded by the same love and care her late owner showered upon her. If you have room in your heart and home for a sweet and affectionate companion, consider welcoming Pumpkin into your family.
