Straight from the oven and full of flavor, Pita and Ciabatta are two adorable, soulful puppies ready to rise to the occasion and become your best friends. With their soft eyes, eager minds, and growing curiosity about the world, these pups are on the cusp of blossoming into loyal, affectionate companions. They’re the kind of dogs who will bond deeply and love endlessly—they just need the right person (or people!) to give them that chance. Please note: We do not place siblings together, and Pita and Ciabatta will each be adopted into their own loving, individual homes. Don’t be fooled by their initial caution—these girls are puppies, through and through: playful, curious, food-motivated, and resilient. Once they’ve had a moment to settle in, they’ll be in your lap, chewing on toys, following your every step, and becoming the heart of your household. They’re both already showing their goofy, snuggly sides and absolutely love time outside, basking in the sun or playing together in the grass. Pita, the smaller of the two, is a smart little thinker. She’s curious, observant, and definitely food-driven (treats are her love language). She loves toys, belly rubs, and snuggling once she knows she’s safe. Pita looks to her sister for cues and would thrive with a confident dog in the home to show her the ropes. She’d do well in a calm household, but one that’s also ready for fun and play as she continues to come out of her shell. Ciabatta is the warm, crusty loaf with a big personality. She’s playful, affectionate, and has a thing for shoes (not judging, we all have our quirks). She’s learning that humans are safe and fun and is especially sweet when snuggled with her people. Ciabatta loves cuddles, sun naps, and food rewards—basically, all the best things in life. She’s definitely got that spark that makes her a joy to raise. Their current routine includes potty breaks, meals, nap time, and supervised play. They’re doing well with housetraining and learning to settle in a crate. They’re not leash pros yet—especially Pita, who’s still getting used to it—but they’re making progress and would do best with slow, positive leash introductions and continued structure. Like all puppies, they’ll benefit from training, play, and plenty of patience—but they’re quick learners with hearts wide open. Pita and Ciabatta would love homes with another playful dog to mentor them, and children who understand that some puppies just need a gentle approach. These girls are incredibly sweet and so worth the small bit of extra time it may take to earn their trust. Once you’ve got it? You’ve got it for life.May 2, 2025, 4:29 am
