Yahtzee (blond smooth coat female), Chessy (very petite medium scruffy blond female), Jenga (very scruffy blond female), Checkers (Black and tan smooth coat male), Bingo (brown scruffy male), Topple (smooth coat blond male), and Trouble (black and tan scruffy male) were surrendered to a local shelter during the holidays. Unfortunately, the shelter couldn't find a foster for them and they were too small to adopt out so they reached out to us for help. We agreed and they all made there way to rescue and are now old enough to find their happily ever afters. These babies are very outgoing, sweet, and playful. We are completely guessing on their breed possibility as they all look soooo different-- possibly Dachshund, Chihuahua, Poodle, and/or Norfolk Terrier-- they have shorter legs, longer bodies, and some are quite a bit fuzzier whereas some have more of a smooth coat (more than likely we have multiple fathers in this litter).. It will be interesting to have DNA tests done on them. 

Using a dog door during the day and a litter box with wood shaving at night. Adopter would need to make continue with house training though.

These babies are very high energy and will need an active family/person to keep them busy. But oh my goodness they are all very playful and happy and love everyone they meet. She is too funny-- she enjoys toys and is constantly moving she is too darn cute with her little legs.

Spayed/neutered, microchipped, and current on all vaccinations -

Fee $275

We do welcome out-of-state adoptions. Adopters would need to be able to come out to meet/adopt the pet.

Dogs are seen by appointment only after an application has been submitted and approved. If you have other dogs it is recommended you bring them out to the meeting but not required. If you are not ready to adopt (vacation/travel planned and don't want to put your new pet in boarding, in the middle of a move, etc) please wait to schedule an appointment until you are ready.

Adoption fees are cash only.  

If you would like to help with rescue by providing monetary support for vetting, snacks, and toys for the dogs in our program while they wait for their happily ever afters we would truly appreciate it.
