Hello friends! My name is Piper and itās a real pleasure to meet you! Iām two years old and looking for my new, happy home. Iāve been at AWS for almost three months now and I think itās about time that I got my happy ending. Donāt you think so, too?! Thatās why when my friends here asked if I wanted to be featured on the blog, I barked a big āyes!ā After all, a good girl like me deserves a loving home. They donāt call me perfect Piper for nothing! Iām excited to share my story so I hope youāre ready to listen. I would greatly appreciate any shares, likes, and comments! (Thatās rightā¦ I know how to play the game!)
The Begging
I first arrived at AWS on the very first day of June. My previous family was wonderful, but could no longer care for me. At first, I was very confused, scared, and anxious; Iāll admit I didnāt act my best self. New people made me nervous and the staff here struggled to keep me happy and engaged. I was far from the āperfect Piperā everyone calls me now!
After about a month, however, I started to feel a real change. Thanks to the kind, dedicated, and patient work of my human friends, I started to blossom into myself again. I opened up to new people, went on longer walks, and even played with some canine companions. Everyone saw how much I loved to splash in water, chase my toys, and receive belly rubs. I even was approved to go out on Doggy Dates! Before long, my face was everywhere and I thought it was only a matter of time before I found my happy home.
The Middle
Fast forward to today and Iām still in the middle of my story, patiently waiting for my family. Of course I still have my ups and downs, but Iāve really earned my title of āperfect Piper.ā Iām currently in foster care where I have learned to trust even more people and really living my best life. I go walking, hiking, or jogging all the time, and every day is a new adventure. Iām a real outdoorsman so getting out during the beautiful summer is definitely my cup of tea. Iām so grateful to my fosters and to AWS!
They call me āfree-spiritedā, a āpuppy-at-heartā and (my favorite) āgoofy.ā All those things are definitely true, but I can still be shy and introverted at times. Hey, I canāt be perfect all the time! Because of this, I know I would prefer a home without small children or cats. They can both be unpredictable sometimes and I really want to focus on being the best canine companion I can be. After all, I want my new family to know that I will be there for them as the best version of myself as possible. I know I can do it. I mean, look how far Iāve already come!
The End
As for the end of my tale, well thatās really up to you! I canāt earn my happy ending until I get adopted into a loving family like yours. Iāve gone from frightened and afraid, to happy and eager, to now hopeful and patient. I know my family is out there somewhere and I want them to know that Iām here. Iāve watched countless friends of mine get adopted and I canāt help but think āwhen will it be my turn?ā The ending of oneās story is always the hardest to write, but I know it will be worth it if we can write it together.
So, as summer slowly shifts into fall, I canāt help but shift as well. Iāve done a lot of changing over the last three months, but now itās time to change into who I was really meant to be: a family dog. means, to me, that I will be loyal, loving, and kind. I will let my silly side loose, have fun, and enjoy life. The only thing that could possibly make it even more perfect is if my family was there beside me. So, what do you think? Ready to turn āperfect Piperā into the best family dog ever?! Please give my friends here a call at (207) 985-3244 and theyāll set up an appointment with my foster to come and meet you. I simply cannot wait for the good news!!
