Friday's Friend- Operation Paws for Homes

Happy Friday!! I met a new friend this week from Operation Paws for Homes who introduced me to a dog named Strudel who he'd like me to bark about to you!

Please meet Strudel who is a 1 ½ year old hound mix!  We hounds are really cool, by the way!

Strudel has lived a life of ups and downs so far – with the downs outnumbering the ups! She was discovered by a housecleaning crew in an abandoned home with her newborn puppies. This was a bit of good fortune for her as the housekeepers rushed to action to find this sweet family a place to go. A kind soul in South Carolina took in the mother and puppies while Operation Paws for Homes worked to secure a foster home! Finally, things were looking up!

Unfortunately, a mysterious affliction affected Strudel’s litter.  She, her South Carolina foster, and her OPH foster, could only watch helplessly as one by one they faded away. Strudel was alone – a mama with nothing to mother.

Operation Paws for Homes is determined that those difficult days will mark the close of Strudel’s final sad chapter!  The happiest days are ahead of her with a forever home of her own – one with treats, toys, family, and all the snuggling a young gal like herself could hope for!

Despite the loss of her puppies, Strudel has turned into a really great dog. She’s shown to be a great companion to humans of all ages, and has a great way with other dogs.

 She’s housebroken, and used to being crated during the day (although she prefers not to be crated at night, thank you!) but her favorite place of all to be is in her peoples’ laps. She’d make a great companion for almost any home, and she’s got so much love to give! Please help us turn Strudel’s story into a joyful one, and apply to adopt her today at Operation Paws for Homes!
