Story: Peppa was rescued in 2019 after she was kept in a basement of an office building after her owners daughter moved away and he didn't know what to do with her except keep her in the basement and provide the basics. She barely saw anyone or go outside and became fearful of going through doors. She was also very dirty and scared of people. Thankfully, after a year in OPJ care being rehabilitated, she was adopted in 2020 by a lovely couple who took very good care of her. Sadly, one year later, they had to give her up after they moved away and she was adopted by their neighbor in 2021 (he already had adopted a dog from Open Paws before). She stayed with her new adopter for a few years and was very much loved and cared for, but then sadly he came on unforeseen circumstances in 2024 and had to surrender both dogs back to OPJ. Now Peppa is hoping her luck will change and she will find her forever home.
