My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Petey Wheatie, the bundle of joy wrapped in fur, with ears floppier than a pancake on a Sunday morning. With a coat as dark as an eclipse and eyes that twinkle with mischief, Petey is more than just a dog—he's a committed fur companion who will bring love and laughter to your life.

Petey is happiest near his people. While he enjoys playing with other dogs, his true compassion is People. Petey will help you feel loved and needed. He just wants to be close to people and will follow you from room to room. Don’t worry though, Petey is content to just be near you. Although he likes to play, Petey doesn’t constantly hound you. He’ll wait until you’re ready.

Although Petey was rescued from the bustling streets, he’s amazingly well behaved inside. You won’t need to worry about Petey tearing up your home! Although he is crated trained, Petey has been trusted alone with his foster dog brother for three hours without incident. Petey loves chew toys. He has a heart of gold and a nose for snacks, making training easy. He rides calmly in the car and walks well on a leash, making Petey the perfect companion for any adventure.

Petey Wheatie bounds through life, igniting smiles on the faces of all who cross his path. With a wag of his tail and a bounce in his step, he's on a mission to show the world that every dog deserves a chance to shine. From playing fetch with tennis balls, chasing his tail in circles, to mastering the art of the puppy dog eyes, Petey is a friend who thrives on companionship. So, if you're in need of a furry friend to light up your days and warm your heart, look no further than Petey Wheatie—the four-legged buddy who's waiting to steal your heart.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an application (applicant must be at least 23 years of age). Once your application is received a volunteer will contact you to discuss your application. All references listed will be contacted, along with a call to your veterinarian to make sure your current/former pets are/were up to date on all vaccinations. We also complete a background check and home visit will be performed. Once all that is complete, and application is approved, we will arrange meet and greets with our adoptables that may be a good fit for your family and lifestyle. If a perfect match is found, an adoption contract will need to be signed, along with an adoption fee.
