Meet Darla – the tiny warrior with the biggest heart!
At just two days old, Darla and her two brothers were found abandoned in a dumpster. What should have been the beginning of a carefree puppyhood turned into a fight for survival. All three babies faced serious health struggles, but sweet Darla fought the hardest. She overcame painful face sores, swollen toes that split open, lost toenails, ear mites, and some developmental delays. Tragically, her brothers didn’t make it – but Darla did. Today, this two-month-old miracle is the very definition of resilience and joy.
Now? You’d never know she had such a rough start. Darla is a whirlwind of feisty, bouncy energy who greets every day like it’s the best day ever (because for her, it really is). She zooms around the house with her foster dog siblings, gleefully “attacks” human toes like it’s her full-time job, and when she play-wrestles, she lets out the most adorable little growls and grumbles – everyone says she sounds exactly like a fierce (but very tiny) baby tiger. It’s guaranteed to melt your heart every single time.
Darla is wicked smart and already making great progress with house training. She’s food-motivated, quick to learn, and eager to please once she decides you’re part of her pack. Based on her age and current size, the growth charts predict she’ll grow into a large breed adult, though her mix is a total mystery – maybe you’ll spot some clues as she grows!
Because of everything she’s been through, Darla’s future family should know that while she’s thriving and appears perfectly healthy now, early trauma can sometimes bring unexpected challenges later. She deserves a home that’s ready to love her unconditionally, through the easy days and any bumpy ones that might come.
If you’re looking for a puppy who will fill your life with laughter, cuddles, chaos (the very best kind), and constant reminders of just how precious second chances are – Darla is your girl. This little survivor didn’t just beat the odds; she turned them into pure joy. All she needs now is the perfect family to share that joy with forever.
Could that family be yours? Darla sure hopes so – she’s ready to love you with every ounce of her brave, bouncy heart. 🐾❤️
