🐾 Hi, I’m Peach! 🐾
I’m a 3–4 yr old Wire-Haired Terrier/Podenco mix, and I’m here in the PNW waiting for my forever family! 💗

A little about me:
✨ Shy at first, but once I trust you—I’m goofy, loyal, and full of zoomies!
✨ I love squeaky toys, belly rubs, and being your shadow.
✨ I’m great with calm dogs, better with older kids, but cats? Nope. 🙅‍♀️
✨ I’m quiet, gentle, and already working hard on my manners.

My dream home? 🏡
Somewhere calm with a secure yard, lots of love, and someone who’s around most of the day to hang out with me.

If you’re looking for a loyal best friend with a silly side… I’m your girl. 💕

📍 Location: PNW
💲 Adoption Fee: $600

🐾 Meet Peach! 🐾

Peach is a 3–4 year old Wire Hair Terrier/Podengo mix who’s as sweet as her name. 🍑 She may start off a little shy, but once she feels safe, her goofy, playful personality comes alive—zoomies, belly rub requests, and fuzzy toys in her mouth are her specialties.

✨ Why you’ll love Peach:

Sweet, affectionate, and loyal 🥰

OK with older children

Good with other dogs with slow introductions (currently living with a terrier foster brother)

Gentle when taking treats & quiet in the home

Quick learner already picking up new commands

Loves toys (especially squeaky, fuzzy ones!) and running in the yard

Great with baths, towel time, and nail trims

🏡 Her dream home:
Peach would love a calm, patient family with a fenced yard where she can play fetch, zoom around, and then snuggle up for daily cuddles. She thrives with people who will give her time, love, and plenty of belly rubs.

If you’re looking for a playful, sweet, and loyal companion, Peach might just be your perfect match. 🍑🐕

Apply today on our website to meet this special girl.

💔🐾 Peaches’ Story 🐾💔

Peaches was a pit bull mom in New Mexico, placed on the euthanasia list with her babies. Her puppies were tagged for rescue, but like so many pit bulls, she was left behind.

For nearly two years, Peaches waited — first in boarding, then in foster care. Overlooked again and again simply because of her breed.

But her story didn’t end there. 💙 A loving family in Washington opened their hearts, and today Peaches is living her best life — spoiled, safe, and finally home. 🏡✨

This is why Stand Up For Pits exists. To fight the stigma, to give dogs like Peaches a voice, and to raise funds so rescues like ours can keep saying “yes” to pitties in need.

📅 Join us Oct. 12 at Tacoma Comedy Club for a night of comedy, compassion, and second chances. Tickets in our bio 🎟

🌟 Happy Adoption, Fara 🌟

Fara’s journey has been one of true resilience. She was found as a stray in Mexico, her body showing signs that she had recently had puppies—but heartbreakingly, they were nowhere to be found. Despite her rough start, Fara never lost her gentle spirit.

She waited nearly two years for her chance at a family, and her patience has finally been rewarded! Fara has landed the most wonderful home here in the PNW, where she’s already living the life she always deserved—going on adventures, soaking up love, and finally being someone’s girl.

We couldn’t be happier for this sweet soul. 💛 Thank you to everyone who played a part in her journey from the streets of Mexico to the trails and forests of the Pacific Northwest.

Here’s to Fara’s brand-new chapter—it was worth the wait. 🐾✨

🎉 Happy Tails! Fara’s Forever Home Found! 🐾

We are thrilled to share that Fara, the sweet 2-year-old Airedale Terrier mix, has finally found her furever family in the PNW! 🏡💛

From a shy, underweight pup who had never known a safe home, Fara has blossomed into a happy, playful, and adventurous young lady. She loves water, outdoor adventures, car rides, and long sniff-filled walks. With her new family, she’ll continue to learn, grow, and enjoy the love and care she’s always deserved.

Special thanks to her rescuers and adopters, Fara’s dreams finally came true. 🌟🐶

Welcome to your forever, Fara! ❤️
