Story
This pup is eligible for our Test the Couch program — a 7-day trial adoption to see if your home (and your couch) is the perfect fit. Learn more  https://pipsrescue.org/test-the-couch/ Sasha the Snuggle-Pup – “Fluffy, Fun, and Full of Personality!” By: CozyDogMom Wow. Just wow. Sasha has the softest, floofiest coat I’ve ever experienced—like hugging a cloud that wants to play fetch. She’s goofy in the best way and is always game for an adventure (or a nap). Highly recommend if you’re looking for a cuddle buddy with a dash of sass!   Trick-Learning Prodigy – “Smart, silly, and training like a champ.” By: FirstTimePupTrainer Sasha picks up on commands FAST. She’s eager to please and super treat-motivated. We’re working on “sit,” “stay,” and “don’t chew the shoe,” and she’s nailing it. She does test boundaries (toddler energy!), but with consistency, she thrives. If you love training sessions, she’s your girl.   Best with Big-Dog Buddies – ½ “Loves confident canine companions—but no cats, please.” By: PackLeaderVibes Sasha truly shines around other confident dogs her size or bigger. She takes cues from them beautifully and gains confidence quickly. But homes with cats or small dogs? Not her vibe. She’s got a big personality and needs friends who can match her energy.   Kid-Friendly-ish – “Great with older kids, not for toddlers.” By: DogDadWithTeens Sasha adores kids—but younger ones might find her a bit too clever for comfort! She does best with older children who can stick to consistent commands and not let her sneak an extra treat (or three). Think “fun-loving puppy meets tiny lawyer.”   All the Essentials Included – “Vaccinated, spayed, and ready to move in.” By: ReadyToAdopt Fully vetted, spayed, and healthy—this pup is as turnkey as they come. No assembly required (unless you count assembling a toy collection for her). Sasha is absolutely adoption-ready!   Final Verdict: A Must-Adopt! – “She’s not just a good dog—she’s a great dog.” By: FutureBestFriend If you’re looking for a sweet, smart, fun-loving pup who thrives on affection and structure, Sasha is the perfect pick. No cats, no tiny dogs—but tons of love and laughter guaranteed. ##2056176##

This pup is eligible for our Test the Couch program — a 7-day trial adoption to see if your home (and your couch) is the perfect fit. Learn more  https://pipsrescue.org/test-the-couch/ Meet Jolene: The Main Character. Always. At just 36 pounds, Jolene is compact enough to fit in your car, your lap, and your heart—but not your social calendar if it includes other dogs. She’s not here for pack life. She’s here to be your one and only, your ride-or-die, your queen bee. Other dogs? Hard pass. Jolene wants the spotlight, and honestly, she deserves it. She’s currently boarding with a trainer and crushing it—learning the ropes, snuggling her stuffies, and plotting world domination (or at least domination of your couch). She has energy for days, so if your lifestyle is more “let’s hike this trail” and less “let’s binge-watch eight seasons of a show without moving,” she’s your girl. Jolene is accepting applications for: Humans who enjoy brisk walks, stuffed toy destruction, and unwavering loyalty. Households with no other pets (her words, not ours: “I will not be sharing my throne.”) Anyone who has ever looked at a dog and thought, “you might just be a tiny, unbothered celebrity.” Think you’re the chosen one? Apply to foster or adopt at pipsrescue.org. Just don’t bring any other dogs with you. Jolene will see them. She will judge.  $100 of her adoption fee is being sponsored by Ricci Law Firm Injury Lawyers, so her adoption fee is $225  ##1611630##

Story
Meet Bruno! 🐾 He came to us so malnourished her was unable to walk. Three vet visits later and lots of TLC from his foster mom, Bruno has been declared healthy and ready for adoption! Bruno is a 4-month-old heart-stealer with the softest black-and-white coat, big floppy ears, and soulful eyes that seem to look right into your heart. He might be a Labrador and Border Collie mix — smart, loyal, and full of love — but what really sets him apart is just how sweet and cuddly he is. Bruno is the kind of puppy who makes you smile the moment you see him. He’s happy, gentle, and has an easygoing charm that draws everyone in. When he’s not busy playing or exploring, you’ll find him snuggled up close, perfectly content just being near his people. He’s doing great with his crate training, potty training and settling into his routine nicely. Bruno’s quick to learn and eager to please — you can tell he wants to make his humans proud! With his long wagging tail and joyful personality, Bruno brings happiness wherever he goes. He loves being part of the action but also knows how to relax — the best of both worlds. Bruno would thrive in a home where he can keep spreading his happy energy and share his endless cuddles. Whether you’re looking for a walking buddy, a couch companion, or just a friend who’ll love you unconditionally, Bruno is ready to fill that role and then some. With his kind spirit, sweet nature, and those soulful eyes, it’s impossible not to fall for Bruno — he’s truly something special. Apply to adopt Bruno today!

Story
Meet Tuna! 🐾 She came to us with her brother Bruno. They were both extremely malnourished, but after 3 vet visits and lots of TLC she is doing great! Tuna is a 4-month-old bundle of happiness with the sweetest white tuft of fur on her chest, big floppy ears that can’t decide which way to go, and a long tail that’s always wagging! She’s potentially a Labrador and Border Collie mix, which means she’s smart, confident, and full of life. Tuna has a fun, independent personality. She’s the kind of puppy who loves to explore on her own and figure things out, but she’s never far from her people when it’s time for some attention or a cuddle. She’s curious about everything and approaches the world with a happy, adventurous spirit. She’s doing wonderfully with crate training and quickly learning the ropes of her routine. Her confidence helps her adjust easily to new environments, and she seems to take everything in stride. Tuna enjoys her playtime, whether it’s chasing toys, romping around the yard, or just rolling over for belly rubs when she’s ready for a break. Despite her playful independence, Tuna has a loving side that shines through once she’s had a little time to settle in. She’s affectionate without being clingy — the perfect balance of sweet and self-assured. Tuna would do great in a home that appreciates her smarts and gives her room to explore, play, and keep learning. Whether you’re looking for a hiking buddy, a park companion, or a loyal friend to share your couch, Tuna’s ready to be your girl. She’s confident, happy, and full of potential — all she needs now is a family to grow up with and love forever. Apply to adopt Tuna today!
