Will YOU be my person? My foster mom worries that I might be a little depressed, but actually I'm just dealing with some abandonment feelings. It's hard not to be sad when people have let you down so many times. I just need to find my FOREVER home! Don't let my wrinkles fool you. I might be a mature lady but I'm definitely NOT a senior! (Rescues have a hard time figuring out the age of dogs like me without complete records.) I love my walks or running in my foster family's field. I do have some knee issues but it doesn't slow me down. So if you are a runner or like to hike, I'd love to be your sidekick! Being on the go is my happy place for now, though I am a sucker for a good massage. But some day my happy place will be anywhere beside MY PERSON (or even better, my PEOPLE). I'm what you might call an easy keeper: I'm chill when you are, and just as ready to go as soon as you put on my harness. I'm quiet most of the time but will bark to let you know when we have visitors. And I have a sultry Greta Garbo voice when I do bark, so no yapping for this girl! I sleep through the night and will let you sleep in no problem. And I "do my business" outside (once I get used to the routine at my new home). I'm cool riding in the car and can adapt to lots of different environments. I can even ride the bus without a fuss! I'm good with other dogs that are chill and I love older kids (due to my size I have to be careful with little ones). My only downfall is... I like cats a little too much if you know what I mean. :) Speaking of size, I am bigger than a typical pug, but if you are looking for a dog that is not too small or too big, I could be just right!

We make every effort to respond to inquiries in a timely manner but often the days get away from us. For this reason, we will do our best to reach out to everyone. We’ll let you know your application has been received either through a phone call, text or email.
PLEASE take your time completing the below application and fill out questions in detail! This is the information our adoption team will use to make initial determinations when selecting applicants to proceed in the interview process as dogs become available and we begin the process of finding its forever family.
READ the information on each dog's biography page carefully. If you are interested in applying to adopt a dog, please ensure you meet the stated requirements. All of these dogs live with our foster families and that means we know their story -- we understand what they have been through and what they need in a forever home. All decisions are made with the dogs' best interests in mind.
