Biscuit is a quiet, sensitive soul who thrives in calm, predictable environments. He’s not flashy or demanding — he just wants a soft place to land and someone who understands that confidence comes with time.
🛋️ Biscuit’s Signature Move
Claiming the couch like he pays rent. Cozy spots are his love language.
🧠 What Biscuit Is Learning
Responds to “crate” / “kennel”
Appears to be house trained
Building confidence with handling, routines, and new experiences
🐕 Day-to-Day Details
Leash: ❌ Very fearful — not leash-ready yet
Energy Level: 💤 Low
Motivation: 🍗 Food
House Training: ✅ Believed to be house trained
Crate: ⚖️ Tolerates it (goes in when asked, but still nervous)
🐶 Dog & People Notes
With Dogs:
Biscuit loves other dogs and is very much the lowest on the totem pole. He shows affection through enthusiastic face licking, which not all dogs appreciate. Because of this, he would do best with a dog tolerant of his overly friendly style. Once comfortable, we believe he would enjoy playing with a dog his own size. He’s still learning canine social cues and isn’t quite fluent in “dude, get outta my face.”
With New People:
Fine overall, but slow to approach. Gentle introductions work best.
🚪 Manners Check
Door Dasher: ⚠️ Could be if given the chance
Jumping: ⚠️ Occasionally when excited
Counter Surfing: ❌ No — but very curious about your food
🚗 On the Road
Car rides make him nervous. He seeks comfort by sitting in a lap.
🏡 Best Home Match
A low-chaos, quieter home with patient humans who understand shy dogs. Biscuit would do best where routines are consistent and expectations are gentle.
🚧 Fence Requirement
Secure physical fence required — leash walks are not his comfort zone right now.
🐾 Adoption Info:
All of our animals are fully vetted, which includes spay/neuter, up to date on vaccines, wormed, heartworm tested and treated if necessary, up to date on flea/tick/heartworm prevention, and microchipped prior to adoption.
Our requirements are non-negotiable and include the following:
All current pets in the home must be spayed or neutered if over 6 months of age, unless there is a documented medical exemption with veterinary confirmation.
All current dogs must be up to date on Rabies and Distemper/Parvo (DHPP) vaccinations.
All current dogs must be on consistent, consecutive heartworm prevention.
Past dogs listed on the application must also show a consecutive history of heartworm prevention.
To start the adoption process, please fill out our application here:

Please also take a moment to read our requirements located in the application.
Please note:
The dog you’re applying for might already have a meet-and-greet scheduled, be on a trial with another family, or has been offered to another rescue within our network. Don’t worry though — we’re always happy to help you find another great match if that happens! Our goal is to make sure every pup ends up in the best home for their needs (and yours too!)
