Finding April: A Tale of Overlooked Love and Loyalty

High school memories often stir up a mix of emotions, especially for those of us who didn't quite fit in with the "cool kids" or conform to the latest trends. It's a feeling of being overlooked, not quite meeting the standards set by others.

April Wants to Meet You!


In the world of animal welfare, this sentiment echoes loudly in the faces of rescue dogs like April. She represents the countless pups who have been passed over time and again. While others clamor for the trendiest breeds like Doodles or Goldens, dogs like April quietly await their chance at a forever home.

SVPP's journey with April began over two years ago when we rescued her from the Santa Clara County shelter. Despite her warm disposition towards people, April faced a slew of health issues, including skin and ear problems stemming from allergies. It took months of dedicated care to finally manage her condition effectively.

Today, April is a picture of health and happiness, her allergies under control thanks to a carefully tailored regimen of food and medication. Yet, despite her transformation, adoption interest remains elusive. April embodies the essence of a perfect companion – easy-going, affectionate, and utterly drama-free. She revels in simple pleasures: leisurely walks, playtime with toys, and, of course, mealtime.

April Walks Great On Leash!

April isn't the flashy cheerleader type; she's the quiet, unassuming soul who would have found a home long ago if she were a different breed. Instead, she patiently awaits someone who sees beyond appearances – someone who values loyalty, companionship, and the unique bond she offers.

This April, our sole focus is finding her the loving family she deserves. She's just one example of countless shelter dogs overlooked for more "glamorous" counterparts. We believe there's a perfect match out there, someone who understands the immeasurable joy of welcoming a grateful, easy-going companion like April into their lives.

April loves her toys!

So, if you're reading this and feel that tug at your heartstrings, please consider opening your home to April. She's been waiting patiently, and we know her forever family is out there, ready to embrace her with open arms. #AdoptApril
