If your home has some room to fill and your heart has some space to spare, Daffodil is up for adoption from the Cape of Good Hope SPCA.

Let us introduce you to Daffodil – a tender-hearted lady with a name as soft as her spirit. 

She’s around 8 or 9 years old, a beautiful Labby cross who came to the Cape of Good Hope SPCA through our Inspectorate.

Life hasn’t always been gentle with her – but she’s still blooming with quiet hope for a fur-ever loving home.

Daffodil isn’t the type to leap into your arms or barrel through the door with tail-wagging chaos – she’s the slow-blooming kind.

The kind of dog who’ll take her time, lean in gently, and one day rest her head on your knee like she’s always belonged there. 

She can be a little timid of meeting new people, yet warms up with a very gentle approach and a patient person. 

Daffodil would love a peaceful home maybe with a calm family who has older kids who understand gentleness or even with a well-matched dog companion. 

Daffodil's heart has room for a friend who can match her medium-energy.

Her medium-energy means she's a great companion for a casual run or play in a dog park and can do well with hands-on training or teaching.
So, if your home has some room to fill and your heart has some space to spare, Daffodil is ready to bloom in a new home.
