Meet Hartley – Your Pint-Sized Adventure Buddy!
Hi there! My name’s Hartley — While some call me a “pocket pittie,” I’m pretty sure your pocket would have to be very big!
I’m the perfect mix of playful and cuddly. My favorite hobbies include:
• Going for walks and lots of butt scratches.
• Playing fetch — but only if we use two balls (trust me, it’s more fun that way!)
• Enjoying car rides with the windows down so I can take in all the smells
• Meandering around the backyard, proudly carrying the sticks I find
I do have one mystery in my life: the garden hose. Sometimes it’s fine… until the water starts coming out. Then I’m not so sure about it. It gets me overly excited. My foster mom says we’re working on it together.
When we first meet, I might be a little reserved — I like to make sure you’re a good human before giving you my whole heart. But with just a bit of patience, I’ll love you like no other. I already know lots of commands (sit, stay, down, shake) and my foster mom says I have “the most beautiful smile and the perfect physique - not too skinny, not too fluffy”. I always get compliments on my soft fur.
I’m crate trained, house trained, and a respectful houseguest — I never chew on things I shouldn’t. No need to coddle me on fireworks day or during a storm - loud noises don’t bother me. I’d love a home with another dog (big or small, as long as they let me be in charge), but I’d also be perfectly happy as your one-and-only if you give me lots of attention. Sitting with you while I chew a bone sounds like heaven to me.
So, if you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s small enough to fit on your couch but big enough to fill your heart, I’m your girl. Could I be the missing piece to your family?

Once you submit an application we will do a vet check to ensure your current animals (if any) are up to date on all shots and are fixed.

Additional adoption info
For us, the adoption process begins the day we take a dog or cat into our rescue. It’s a huge responsibility, taking in a lost soul and promising them a happy life, but we are pretty proud of the forever families we’ve helped create because our adoption process is so thorough.
The first step in adopting is to fill out the adoption application. This helps our volunteers understand what kind of new friend you are looking for, and allows us to identify any issues that would prevent us being able to place certain animals in certain homes. For example, breed restrictions in your town or apartment complex, etc…
The Beauties will conduct a vet check to make sure the pets you currently have are all up-to-date on vaccinations and spayed or neutered. We will also contact you to set up a home visit, where we can make sure that the home you have meets the needs of the animal you are interested in. Example: fence height for dogs who are jumpers, stairs for dogs who have mobility challenges, etc… We try to troubleshoot any potential problem areas and offer friendly advise so that our ultimate goal, a forever happy match, can be achieved.
After the application process is complete, the real fun begins! It’s time for Meet-N-Greets! We have a professional dog trainer on our board of directors, and we can schedule her assistance in helping you with dog-to-dog introductions while you are searching for your new family member. It’s amazing how often the existing family pet has a little something to say about who they want to spend time with and having a pro help out makes the potential for a successful intro go through the woof! We mean, roof!
Once you have decided on the dog or cat of your dreams, all that is left to do is sign the adoption contract and pay the fee, which includes all vaccinations, microchip and spay/neuter.
