Pearl

My story

  Meet Pearl – the pup who really lives up to her name since she is so precious! Pearl and the rest of her SpongeBob SquarePants-themed siblings arrived to PAWS as a litter of 7, and have been learning the ropes ever since. She is currently living in foster care with her sister Plankton, and they are both equal parts snuggly and spunky! Pearl may still be growing, but she’s already shown off that she can be mature, calm, and confident. She absolutely loves to play with her sister Plankton, as well as other dogs, and is always ready to dig, sniff, and fetch the next adventure. Pearl seems like she would love to continue living with another dog in her forever home, and would make an excellent canine companion to anyone looking for their next best friend. This treat-motivated pup is a quick learner and already knows “sit,” “come,” and “leave it”—and she’s eager for more! Though she’s still working on housebreaking, Pearl is great with potty pads and would love to continue her training journey with her new family. She’s a cuddler at heart and loves quality time with her people. Just like the notorious Pearl Krabs, this sweet girl is ready to dive into your world with endless love and energy. Ready to make her your one-of-a-kind treasure? Submit your adoption application today, and you can also follow along for more of Pearl's and & Plankton's adventures on Instagram, @phillyfostermama!
