Meet Praline!If you're looking for a puppy who is equal parts playful, cuddly, and easygoing, Praline might just be your perfect match.Praline loves everyone she meets. She adores kids, gets along wonderfully with other dogs, and is always ready for playtime. After she's burned off some puppy energy, she's just as happy curling up for cuddles or quietly entertaining herself when no one is around. She has a sweet, adaptable personality that makes her a joy to have around.Praline does have one unique quirk, but thankfully, it is very easy to manage.After noticing that she was regurgitating her food, we completed extensive veterinary testing to determine the cause. The good news is that no major abnormalities or underlying diseases were found. The specialists believe she likely has an esophageal motility issue, which means food moves through her esophagus a little differently than normal.It does not affect her energy, personality, growth, or quality of life. She is otherwise a healthy puppy, and there is no reason to expect the issue to worsen over time. It may improve as she grows, or it may remain the same.Managing her meals is simple. We grind her puppy kibble into a powder and keep it in a container. At mealtime, we mix it with water to create an oatmeal-like consistency, and she happily eats every bite and keeps it down. She can also enjoy certain treats that she tolerates well.Praline is very food motivated, which makes her highly trainable. She runs, plays, cuddles, explores, and lives life just like any other puppy. She simply needs her meals prepared a little differently.Praline is an amazing puppy with so much love to give. For someone willing to spend an extra minute preparing her meals, she will be an affectionate, playful, and incredibly rewarding companion.pipsrescue.org/adopt
