About Margo (Poodle) in Gretna

Margo is waiting for you at Heartland German Shepherd Rescue in Gretna, NE 68028. Margo is a 1-year-old mini Goldendoodle with a spirit that’s nothing short of incredible. This spunky, bouncy girl is full of life, love, and resilience—and she’s ready to find the forever home she’s always deserved. Margo’s journey hasn’t been easy. She was found abandoned in a kennel inside an empty home after her previous owners were evicted. Severely neglected, —her eyes even matted shut—malnourished at under 20 pounds (when she should be closer to 45 lbs), and covered in fleas. Thanks to a Good Samaritan, she was rescued just in time and given the medical care, nourishment, and love she so desperately needed. Her coat and skin were in such poor condition that Margo had to be shaved under sedation. She is currently regrowing her fur. Now safe in rescue, Margo is leaving her past behind and looking ahead to a bright, happy future—and her personality is truly blossoming. She’s energetic, playful, and incredibly affectionate. Like a little spring, she bounces through life with joy and excitement. She absolutely loves treats (food is definitely her love language!), enjoys toys of all kinds, and wants nothing more than to be close to her people or dog friends. Margo does great with other dogs and would thrive in a home with a playful canine companion or as your one-and-only. Because of her high energy and enthusiasm, she’d do best with older children who can match her zest for life. Her experience with cats is unknown. She is potty trained and crate trained, though she’s still working through some kennel-related habits due to her past trauma. With patience and consistency, she continues to make great progress. She’s also learning leash skills and will flourish with continued guidance and structure. Margo’s ideal home is one filled with love, patience, and plenty of playtime. She doesn’t ask for much—just a family who will cherish her, include her, and give her the life she fought so ha
