Precious Girl Lovebug | A Sweetheart with a Playful Side You know those dogs who make you feel like you’ve been friends forever, even though you just met? That’s Precious. This sweet girl has a way of making herself right at home in your heart, and once she realizes you’re there to give her some love, she’s more than happy to come over and collect every bit of affection you’re willing to share. Precious is the kind of girl who will gently approach you for some attention, soak up all the love, wander off to see what’s happening, and then come right back because, well, a girl can never have too many pets! And don’t let her sweet, gentle personality fool you. This girl has a playful side, too! Get her outside in the yard, and you might just find yourself being invited to a game of chase. Precious loves interacting with her people, and she’s even been known to throw in a few adorable play bows to get the fun started. She’s got just enough silliness to keep you smiling and plenty of affection to make you feel like the luckiest person in the world. One of the things that makes Precious especially wonderful is how naturally she gets along with other dogs. She also met our resident cat! She currently lives in a home with multiple dogs and has spent time socializing with both small and medium-sized pups. She’s happy to invite her furry friends to play, but she’s also perfectly content to let them do their own thing if they’re not interested. She’s a social butterfly with lovely manners, and we absolutely love that about her! Speaking of manners, Precious is also a dream to walk on a leash. She walks nicely alongside her person and needs very little guidance, making those little outings together something to look forward to. Precious would love a home where she can enjoy affection, companionship, and some fun along the way. A yard where she can play would be wonderful, but she could also enjoy apartment living with the right setup. She would be a lovely addition to a home with other friendly, moderately playful dogs, and she’d be just as excited about having people who enjoy spending time with her. What makes Precious so special isn’t just how sweet she is or how well she gets along with everyone she’s met. It’s how easily she makes a connection. She doesn’t need a grand introduction or hours of convincing. Give her a little kindness, and she’ll show you just how much love she has to offer. Precious is ready for her very own people, a cozy place to call home, and a lifetime of being someone’s favorite girl. And something tells us she’s going to be very, very good at that. 🩷 Apply for Precious today! https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/6ab5331a60df4eb81d08363b Questions?

Lizzie Moon is the kind of girl who wants to be part of whatever you’ve got going on, whether that’s exploring the backyard, loading tagging along for a little adventure, or keeping you company while you catch up on your favorite show. She’s got the cutest puppy-dog eyes, a personality with just the right amount of sass, and a serious love for toys. She’s playful, curious, affectionate, and has a way of making even the most ordinary moments entertaining. One minute she’s outside living her best life, and the next she’s stretched out on the living room floor taking a well-earned nap. And if you happen to be sitting on the couch? Don’t be surprised if she rolls right over and requests a belly rub. This girl has figured out that belly rubs are pretty great, and she’s making up for lost time! Watch Lizzie’s video and see this cutie in action: https://youtu.be/W1GnpFxWX5M One of my favorite things about Lizzie is that she loves being wherever her people are. She’s a little shadow in the sweetest way, following her foster around the house, out into the yard, and even around the ranch. She doesn’t need to be glued to your lap every second, though! She’s perfectly happy entertaining herself with a toy or chewing on a bone as long as she gets to be part of the action. When her foster sits down to work at the computer, Lizzie usually finds herself a comfy spot nearby and settles right in. She’s got that wonderful balance of enjoying her playtime while also knowing how to kick back and relax. And speaking of playtime, this girl LOVES her toys! Stuffed animals, rope toys, balls, bones… she’s not picky! She’ll happily toss a ball around all by herself, and at the ranch, she’s even been known to push the bigger balls around like she’s playing her own little game of soccer. She’s got a fun, bouncy, puppy-like play style and loves having room to run and explore. But don’t mistake her playful personality for a dog who needs to be entertained around the clock. Lizzie is just as happy to come inside, stretch out, and enjoy a lazy afternoon. Lizzie is also one smart cookie! She’s already doing wonderfully with her crate training, sleeps through the night in her crate, and has been making great progress with her potty training. She’s got a good understanding of where she’s supposed to go and does well with a consistent routine. She also knows basic commands like sit and down, has nice leash manners, and is an absolute gem in the car! She hops right in, settles comfortably, and is usually content to lie down or enjoy a bone while you drive. Whether you’re heading out for a little adventure or just running an errand, she’s a pretty fantastic copilot. Now, Lizzie does have a little bit of that young-dog enthusiasm, and sometimes her excitement gets ahead of her manners! She can be a bouncy greeter and occasionally gets a little mouthy when she’s feeling extra playful or affectionate. Her foster has been working with her on keeping all four paws on the floor and learning that toys are much better for those puppy teeth than people. She’s already made wonderful progress! Like any young dog, she’ll benefit from someone who keeps up that consistency and helps her continue putting those smarts to good use. When it comes to meeting new people, Lizzie likes to take a minute to check things out before deciding you’re officially part of her fan club. Give her a little space to come say hello on her own, and it usually doesn’t take long before her sweet, charming personality starts making an appearance. She’s also still discovering that the world is full of new and sometimes very suspicious things. A flowerpot moving in the wind? Excuse me, who authorized that?! She’s a curious girl who is learning more every day, and her foster has already seen such a difference in her confidence in just a few short weeks. Lizzie has also shown lovely manners with smaller dogs, including sharing toys and treats, and has successfully lived with a dog-savvy cat. She could enjoy having an appropriately matched canine companion, but she also has plenty of personality and love to offer as the center of your world. As for her forever home, we can picture Lizzie with someone who enjoys a little outdoor fun but also appreciates a good couch day. A securely fenced yard would be wonderful for her soccer games, exploring, and occasional zoomies. A home with a more relaxed daily routine would suit her well, and we think older kids would be a great match for her enthusiastic, playful personality. She’s still polishing up a few of those puppy manners, so a family happy to keep that going would be ideal. At the end of the day, Lizzie Moon Bloom is a fun, affectionate, slightly sassy girl who just wants to enjoy life alongside her favorite people. She’s got the brains, the personality, the adorable face, and a whole lot of love to give. All she’s missing is a family to call her own, a few good toys, and someone willing to take her belly-rub requests very seriously. https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/6adf765f22f05c0be705b313 Questions?

Meet Ruthy Mavis Smarty Pants! Ruth is a 2-year-old Border Collie and Shepherd mix who is smart, joyful, and such a catch! She has a bright mind that is always working and a happy spirit that lights up every room she walks into. Sweet, curious, and full of personality, she greets each day like it’s an invitation to learn something new, and her joy is contagious. She’s the kind of girl who makes you smile just by being herself. Ruth is great with her foster siblings, and she would do best with larger dogs. Cats would be okay in the house, and she did great with our resident cat. She loves her toys and can happily play by herself too, taking breaks when she needs them, so she’s just as content with a game of her own as she is with a friend. She is ready for a loving family who will give her the active life she needs. Ruth would be a great adventure buddy, a farmers market sidekick, or a trailblazer on the trail, and she walks great on leash, so she’s ready to go wherever you are. She’s also athletic, with skilled jumps and leaps from her past life as a circus performer. She balances all that energy with a real love for people and affection, and she’s happy to curl up close after a day of adventures. Ruth is also ready for someone to teach her new things. With her Border Collie and Shepherd brains, she’s eager to learn, and the right person will have a blast showing her new tricks, skills, and games. Plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and training are recommended to keep this bright girl happy. Ruth is looking for a family with plenty of love, an active lifestyle, and a lot of adventures planned. Could that be you?

**Lyla is not in the direct care of Happy Tails Happy Homes. Her owner has found themself in a position where the need to find her a new home at no fault of Lyla's. If you are interested in Lyla, please fill out an application here: https://www.happytailshappyhomes.org/adoptionform** Here is my write up: Breed: Mixed Border Collie/ Heeler/ possible other breeds Age: 5 years old (DOB 12/21/19) Health: Spayed, vaccinated, and in excellent health Location: Bellingham, WA ❤️ About Lyla Lyla is a sweet and kindhearted dog. She loves her people and animal friends with whom she has established a trusting relationship. She is always eager to join any adventure on land or water. In the house, she is relaxed and mostly keeps to herself until it is time for her next walk or game of fetch. Lyla currently lives with 2 cats, 1 indoor uncaged bunny, and outdoor chickens. Lyla does best when given clear boundaries and expectations, while having patience as she can take a moment to consider what she is being told to do. She is smart and knows several commands: sit, settle, stay, heel, back, wait, load up, off, dress (to put on harness or lifejacket). 🌿 Ideal Home Lyla thrives with space, peace, and consistency. The perfect home for her would have: Land or acreage where she has space to run, explore, and sniff. She is curious and likes to hunt, so a fence is preferable. No barky neighboring dogs or busy roads sharing a fence, as this increases her anxiety. A calm environment without dogs walking by her yard all the time. She’s happiest in a rural or semi-rural home where she can run, relax, and feel secure. Lyla loves a consistent, predictable routine, and would thrive with a job. 🐕 Personality and Behavior Lyla is a sweet but cautious dog. She can be: Reactive when encountering unfamiliar dogs. Anxious in chaotic or noisy settings. Relaxed once she knows and trusts other dogs and new people. Affectionate but independent, appreciating her personal space and quiet time. Her reactivity comes from fear, not aggression — with patience and understanding, her loving, loyal side shines through. She bonds deeply with those who give her consistency and calm. Lyla is very considerate of the other animals in her current home. However, she still wants to chase cats, rabbits, and squirrels outside of the home. It will take careful introductions and training to help her understand who is part of the pack in a new home. 🏡 Why She Needs a New Home Lyla has a strong herding instinct and wants to make sure she keeps her environment safe. She views the dogs who walk by her yard everyday as a potential threat. She also lives on a street with a lot of barky dogs, some right next door, which increases her stress. There have been a few unfortunate instances of aggression from Lyla to other neighborhood dogs. So far, no one has been badly injured. However, we think it is prudent to find a more compatible environment for Lyla, so that she can be her best self, and we can maintain peace with our neighbors. 🌟 Lyla’s Wishlist Space to run and sniff Fetch or walks a couple of times per day A comfortable couch or bed to curl up on No shared fence with barky dogs, other dogs walking by, or busy roads The ability to spend ample time outside when the weather is nice Hikes through woods or near water- Lyla is good on a leash. When encountering other dogs, you can have her sit and cover her eyes with your hand to keep her calm. Boating adventures if possible- Lyla loves paddleboards and canoes. Lyla has never shown aggression towards young children. However, due to her herding instincts, a home without young children is preferable. 🧡 Summary Lyla is a sensitive, loyal companion who wants to please her people. She just needs a peaceful environment, open space, and a patient, understanding person who values routine and steady companionship. If you’re looking for a devoted dog who is always ready for adventure but can also relax, then Lyla is your perfect match.

Leo is a four year old husky/border collie mix from Vancouver Washington. His birthday is 4/28/22. Leo is a very playful, outgoing, and sweet dog. I have had him for over two years and we have done just about everything by together. He loves hikes and adventures, but he does whine in the car. As he is mostly husky, he does have a prey drive and cannot live with cats/chickens/etc. He would do best in a home as the only dog. He loves to follow his people around as the sweetest companion. It’s possible that he could live with another dog, but it’s a case by case basis. He is obsessed with peanut butter, but isn’t necessarily food motivated. He is an incredible house dog, never takes food off of plates or the counter (although he often gently asks for some), and has not had an accident since I first got him 2 years ago. He only tears up his toys, not your stuff. He has been spoiled since I got him, and it will be very hard to rehome him, but ongoing costs make it not possible for me

Lizzie Moon is the kind of girl who wants to be part of whatever you’ve got going on, whether that’s exploring the backyard, loading tagging along for a little adventure, or keeping you company while you catch up on your favorite show. She’s got the cutest puppy-dog eyes, a personality with just the right amount of sass, and a serious love for toys. She’s playful, curious, affectionate, and has a way of making even the most ordinary moments entertaining. One minute she’s outside living her best life, and the next she’s stretched out on the living room floor taking a well-earned nap. And if you happen to be sitting on the couch? Don’t be surprised if she rolls right over and requests a belly rub. This girl has figured out that belly rubs are pretty great, and she’s making up for lost time! Watch Lizzie’s video and see this cutie in action: https://youtu.be/W1GnpFxWX5M One of my favorite things about Lizzie is that she loves being wherever her people are. She’s a little shadow in the sweetest way, following her foster around the house, out into the yard, and even around the ranch. She doesn’t need to be glued to your lap every second, though! She’s perfectly happy entertaining herself with a toy or chewing on a bone as long as she gets to be part of the action. When her foster sits down to work at the computer, Lizzie usually finds herself a comfy spot nearby and settles right in. She’s got that wonderful balance of enjoying her playtime while also knowing how to kick back and relax. And speaking of playtime, this girl LOVES her toys! Stuffed animals, rope toys, balls, bones… she’s not picky! She’ll happily toss a ball around all by herself, and at the ranch, she’s even been known to push the bigger balls around like she’s playing her own little game of soccer. She’s got a fun, bouncy, puppy-like play style and loves having room to run and explore. But don’t mistake her playful personality for a dog who needs to be entertained around the clock. Lizzie is just as happy to come inside, stretch out, and enjoy a lazy afternoon. Lizzie is also one smart cookie! She’s already doing wonderfully with her crate training, sleeps through the night in her crate, and has been making great progress with her potty training. She’s got a good understanding of where she’s supposed to go and does well with a consistent routine. She also knows basic commands like sit and down, has nice leash manners, and is an absolute gem in the car! She hops right in, settles comfortably, and is usually content to lie down or enjoy a bone while you drive. Whether you’re heading out for a little adventure or just running an errand, she’s a pretty fantastic copilot. Now, Lizzie does have a little bit of that young-dog enthusiasm, and sometimes her excitement gets ahead of her manners! She can be a bouncy greeter and occasionally gets a little mouthy when she’s feeling extra playful or affectionate. Her foster has been working with her on keeping all four paws on the floor and learning that toys are much better for those puppy teeth than people. She’s already made wonderful progress! Like any young dog, she’ll benefit from someone who keeps up that consistency and helps her continue putting those smarts to good use. When it comes to meeting new people, Lizzie likes to take a minute to check things out before deciding you’re officially part of her fan club. Give her a little space to come say hello on her own, and it usually doesn’t take long before her sweet, charming personality starts making an appearance. She’s also still discovering that the world is full of new and sometimes very suspicious things. A flowerpot moving in the wind? Excuse me, who authorized that?! She’s a curious girl who is learning more every day, and her foster has already seen such a difference in her confidence in just a few short weeks. Lizzie has also shown lovely manners with smaller dogs, including sharing toys and treats, and has successfully lived with a dog-savvy cat. She could enjoy having an appropriately matched canine companion, but she also has plenty of personality and love to offer as the center of your world. As for her forever home, we can picture Lizzie with someone who enjoys a little outdoor fun but also appreciates a good couch day. A securely fenced yard would be wonderful for her soccer games, exploring, and occasional zoomies. A home with a more relaxed daily routine would suit her well, and we think older kids would be a great match for her enthusiastic, playful personality. She’s still polishing up a few of those puppy manners, so a family happy to keep that going would be ideal. At the end of the day, Lizzie Moon Bloom is a fun, affectionate, slightly sassy girl who just wants to enjoy life alongside her favorite people. She’s got the brains, the personality, the adorable face, and a whole lot of love to give. All she’s missing is a family to call her own, a few good toys, and someone willing to take her belly-rub requests very seriously. https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/6adf765f22f05c0be705b313 Questions?

Meet Ruthy Mavis Smarty Pants! Ruth is a 2-year-old Border Collie and Shepherd mix who is smart, joyful, and such a catch! She has a bright mind that is always working and a happy spirit that lights up every room she walks into. Sweet, curious, and full of personality, she greets each day like it’s an invitation to learn something new, and her joy is contagious. She’s the kind of girl who makes you smile just by being herself. Ruth is great with her foster siblings, and she would do best with larger dogs. Cats would be okay in the house, and she did great with our resident cat. She loves her toys and can happily play by herself too, taking breaks when she needs them, so she’s just as content with a game of her own as she is with a friend. She is ready for a loving family who will give her the active life she needs. Ruth would be a great adventure buddy, a farmers market sidekick, or a trailblazer on the trail, and she walks great on leash, so she’s ready to go wherever you are. She’s also athletic, with skilled jumps and leaps from her past life as a circus performer. She balances all that energy with a real love for people and affection, and she’s happy to curl up close after a day of adventures. Ruth is also ready for someone to teach her new things. With her Border Collie and Shepherd brains, she’s eager to learn, and the right person will have a blast showing her new tricks, skills, and games. Plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and training are recommended to keep this bright girl happy. Ruth is looking for a family with plenty of love, an active lifestyle, and a lot of adventures planned. Could that be you?

**Lyla is not in the direct care of Happy Tails Happy Homes. Her owner has found themself in a position where the need to find her a new home at no fault of Lyla's. If you are interested in Lyla, please fill out an application here: https://www.happytailshappyhomes.org/adoptionform** Here is my write up: Breed: Mixed Border Collie/ Heeler/ possible other breeds Age: 5 years old (DOB 12/21/19) Health: Spayed, vaccinated, and in excellent health Location: Bellingham, WA ❤️ About Lyla Lyla is a sweet and kindhearted dog. She loves her people and animal friends with whom she has established a trusting relationship. She is always eager to join any adventure on land or water. In the house, she is relaxed and mostly keeps to herself until it is time for her next walk or game of fetch. Lyla currently lives with 2 cats, 1 indoor uncaged bunny, and outdoor chickens. Lyla does best when given clear boundaries and expectations, while having patience as she can take a moment to consider what she is being told to do. She is smart and knows several commands: sit, settle, stay, heel, back, wait, load up, off, dress (to put on harness or lifejacket). 🌿 Ideal Home Lyla thrives with space, peace, and consistency. The perfect home for her would have: Land or acreage where she has space to run, explore, and sniff. She is curious and likes to hunt, so a fence is preferable. No barky neighboring dogs or busy roads sharing a fence, as this increases her anxiety. A calm environment without dogs walking by her yard all the time. She’s happiest in a rural or semi-rural home where she can run, relax, and feel secure. Lyla loves a consistent, predictable routine, and would thrive with a job. 🐕 Personality and Behavior Lyla is a sweet but cautious dog. She can be: Reactive when encountering unfamiliar dogs. Anxious in chaotic or noisy settings. Relaxed once she knows and trusts other dogs and new people. Affectionate but independent, appreciating her personal space and quiet time. Her reactivity comes from fear, not aggression — with patience and understanding, her loving, loyal side shines through. She bonds deeply with those who give her consistency and calm. Lyla is very considerate of the other animals in her current home. However, she still wants to chase cats, rabbits, and squirrels outside of the home. It will take careful introductions and training to help her understand who is part of the pack in a new home. 🏡 Why She Needs a New Home Lyla has a strong herding instinct and wants to make sure she keeps her environment safe. She views the dogs who walk by her yard everyday as a potential threat. She also lives on a street with a lot of barky dogs, some right next door, which increases her stress. There have been a few unfortunate instances of aggression from Lyla to other neighborhood dogs. So far, no one has been badly injured. However, we think it is prudent to find a more compatible environment for Lyla, so that she can be her best self, and we can maintain peace with our neighbors. 🌟 Lyla’s Wishlist Space to run and sniff Fetch or walks a couple of times per day A comfortable couch or bed to curl up on No shared fence with barky dogs, other dogs walking by, or busy roads The ability to spend ample time outside when the weather is nice Hikes through woods or near water- Lyla is good on a leash. When encountering other dogs, you can have her sit and cover her eyes with your hand to keep her calm. Boating adventures if possible- Lyla loves paddleboards and canoes. Lyla has never shown aggression towards young children. However, due to her herding instincts, a home without young children is preferable. 🧡 Summary Lyla is a sensitive, loyal companion who wants to please her people. She just needs a peaceful environment, open space, and a patient, understanding person who values routine and steady companionship. If you’re looking for a devoted dog who is always ready for adventure but can also relax, then Lyla is your perfect match.

Hi there — I'm Gypsy, a stunning 1-year-old Black Collie mix with adventure in my heart! 🐕 Attributes: -Adventurous -High energy/Energetic -Prey Drive towards fowls, cats, fast movements. -Extremely Smart -Loyal -Cautious around new people (Probably will Bark) -Loves squeaky toys -Housetrained Upon meeting a new person or family, I can be cautious until I build some trust. If you present a happy voice, and a toy that can be thrown for me that squeaks and treats, it will help me establish trust more quickly. I'm very affectionate, have loads of energy, very smart, intelligent, and I love to play. Due to my energetic personality, I'd thrive best with an experienced owner who is aware of Cattle Dog/Working dog behaviors, and match my active lifestyle, providing me the space, training and mental stimulation that's needed for me to have a happy, fulfilled life. My adoption fee is $150 — let's get started on our next chapter and create wonderful memories together!

Leo is a four year old husky/border collie mix from Vancouver Washington. His birthday is 4/28/22. Leo is a very playful, outgoing, and sweet dog. I have had him for over two years and we have done just about everything by together. He loves hikes and adventures, but he does whine in the car. As he is mostly husky, he does have a prey drive and cannot live with cats/chickens/etc. He would do best in a home as the only dog. He loves to follow his people around as the sweetest companion. It’s possible that he could live with another dog, but it’s a case by case basis. He is obsessed with peanut butter, but isn’t necessarily food motivated. He is an incredible house dog, never takes food off of plates or the counter (although he often gently asks for some), and has not had an accident since I first got him 2 years ago. He only tears up his toys, not your stuff. He has been spoiled since I got him, and it will be very hard to rehome him, but ongoing costs make it not possible for me

One icy blue eye, one soft caramel brown eye, and a personality that makes even an ordinary Tuesday feel like an adventure. Stella Bella is a gorgeous girl with a happy heart and a silly streak that is every bit as irresistible as her face. She’s ready to investigate a new trail, turn a stuffy toy into her own personal comedy show, and soak up all the love you have to give. Life with this girl comes with plenty of smiles! Watch her video and fall in love with this happy girl: https://youtu.be/FGZtLjlEGuo?si=I4086UMjMwszy0Uc Stella is approximately 1 year old and currently weighs 49 pounds. Our best guess is that she’s an Australian Shepherd/Husky mix, but with animal rescue, breed is always a bit of a mystery. What we do know is that she is beautiful inside and out, with enough personality to keep you thoroughly entertained. Stella is very sweet, affectionate, and social. She loves being part of the fun and has that happy, curious spirit that makes you want to bring her along. Imagine your life with this girl: a walking buddy who is excited to see where the path leads, a cheerful face beside you on your next adventure, and a loving companion to enjoy the everyday moments with. Her gorgeous eyes might catch your attention first, but her personality is what will keep you hooked. She is dog friendly and has done well with all the dogs we’ve introduced her to so far. Stella is such a hoot when she plays, bringing a silly, happy energy to her friendships. Her playstyle falls right in the middle: she isn’t overly rough and rowdy, but she isn’t especially delicate either. A mutual game of chase? Absolutely! She reads her friends well and knows how to join the fun without becoming too much. A playful dog friend could be a wonderful match for her. This smart girl already has some lovely manners to bring home with her. Her foster considers her fully potty trained, and she hasn’t had any accidents in his home. She knows how to sit, walks well on a leash, and will be a fun dog to continue training with. She also loves toys, especially stuffies, and is perfectly happy entertaining herself with one. Watching her make her own fun is entertainment all by itself! Stella would thrive in a home with a backyard where she can run, stretch her legs, and investigate all the interesting smells. Apartment living could work for her too, with adequate exercise and plenty of opportunities to satisfy her adventurous spirit. Walks, trails, hikes, or a good play session outside would all be right up her alley. She would love a family who enjoys getting out together and giving that curious mind something fun to do. Stella also has potential to make a great family companion. Her foster has grandchildren ages 3 and 5 and reports that she does great with them. Her sweet, social nature gives her so much to offer a family who wants to include their dog in daily life. If your days could use a little more adventure, a lot more laughter, and a beautiful girl to share it all with, Stella is ready to bring her happy heart home. Give her love, room to explore, and a few good stuffies, and she’ll give you so many reasons to smile. We are willing to test Stella Bella with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Freckles across his nose, a little black Batman mask, and happy feet that give away exactly how much he likes you—Holliday has a way of making himself very easy to love. Holliday Heart is a toy enthusiast, a wonderful dog friend, and an affectionate boy with firm ambitions of being someone’s lap dog. There’s a sparkle in his eyes that gets even brighter when someone stops to love on him. Spend a little time together and it becomes very easy to picture him being yours. Go watch Holliday on the Three Little Pitties Rescue YouTube channel for a closer look at that freckled face, those happy tippy-taps, and the sweet boy who would love a permanent spot beside you: https://youtu.be/Lg7gLBT58WI One of our favorite things about Holliday is how good he is with other dogs. He has spent time with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities, and his social skills give him plenty of friends to choose from. He reads their cues, respects their boundaries, and knows that some dogs want a wrestling partner while others would prefer a polite hello and a little space. He can happily join in a good, rowdy play session and comfortably coexist with dogs who have a different idea of a good afternoon. His best match would include another playful dog. Holliday has so much fun sharing his days with a buddy, and a companion who enjoys a little romping and wrestling would be a lovely fit. Watching him play is its own kind of joy- loose, happy, and thoroughly enjoying being a dog. Toys are another reliable way to win him over. Holliday loves having something fun to play with, and he brings an endearing enthusiasm to the things he enjoys. But he also knows how to settle. After some playtime, he’s happy to relax and keep you company. A dog friend, a few good toys, and his people nearby would make a pretty wonderful everyday life for this boy. And his people will get so much love! Holliday leans into affection with his whole heart, coming close for attention, nestling in for kisses, and making a very persuasive case for lap access, on this end we cant understand why anyone would deny him! His happy tippy-taps are especially sweet: a little celebration because someone he likes is right there, giving him a reason to dance. He has the kind of affection that makes an ordinary evening on the couch feel like exactly where you’re supposed to be. Holliday has also shown very encouraging signs around cats. Based on what we’ve seen, a home with a feline friend may be a possibility, and our team can help talk through the right match and introductions. He’s smart, responsive to guidance, and very interested in earning a treat, which he takes ever so gently. Those qualities make continuing his everyday training a lovely way to build a connection. Holliday is estimated to be about two years old and appears to be a Australian Shepherd mix. With rescue, age and breed are our best guesses and cannot be guaranteed. This boy has been waiting for someone to choose him, and there is so much here to fall in love with. The freckles are lovely. The tippy-taps are adorable. But it’s his happy, loving presence—the way he enjoys his friends, settles into your company, and welcomes affection—that makes him such a special companion. Holliday is ready for a family, a playful buddy, and all the little routines that come with belonging. We would love to see his next happy dance be for you. A generous Angel Sponsor has covered a portion of this sweet soul’s adoption fee to help them find a forever home. Preparing a dog for adoption can cost $750–$2,000+, not including costs of transport across the country. Some require heartworm treatment, dentals, or even eye and orthopedic surgeries when medically necessary. When completing your adoption, you’ll have the opportunity to pay that kindness forward with an optional donation to help us give more deserving animals their second chance!

Betty Bumble has entered the chat, and she's tossing around her favorite toy! If you love the look of a cattle dog but appreciate a girl who knows how to take life at a comfortable pace, Betty might be just your type! She's got the classic black-and-white speckles, the cutest mismatched ears, and a wonderfully outgoing personality. She's friendly, confident, affectionate, and always happy to make a new friend. Add in her love of toys and you've got one very lovable little lady! Go watch Betty on YouTube and get to know this speckled sweetheart! Between her adorable ears, happy personality, and enthusiasm for toys, she's got plenty of charm to show off! https://youtu.be/VLHwnXrksBs Betty is estimated to be around two years old, and we believe she's a cattle dog or heeler mix of some sort, although breed and age are always our best guesses in rescue. What we do know is that she's a lovely balance of playful and easygoing. She has a medium energy level, enjoys having fun, and is just as happy spending time with her people. She's got some of that classic heeler personality without feeling like she needs a full-time job herding the neighborhood! One of Betty's favorite things in the world? Toys! Give this girl something fun to carry around, toss, chase, or play with, and she's a happy camper. She also happens to be very treat motivated, which is always a wonderful quality when it comes to learning new things and building a connection with her future family. Between toys, treats, and affection, Betty has her priorities figured out! Betty is also a wonderful little social butterfly when it comes to people. She approaches new friends with confidence, enjoys attention, and has a naturally affectionate way about her. She's the kind of dog who makes it easy to imagine her settling into everyday family life, whether that's joining you for an afternoon in the yard, keeping you company around the house, or curling up nearby after a little playtime. She's done beautifully spending time with other dogs, too! Betty has participated in playgroups with a variety of canine friends and has shown herself to be a relaxed, socially comfortable companion. She doesn't feel the need to be involved in every game, but she's happy to share space, make friends, and occasionally join in the fun. She's even spent time with smaller dogs and has shown a playful side with them! We could easily picture her joining a home with another friendly dog, especially one who appreciates a nice balance of playtime and peaceful companionship. What makes Betty particularly appealing is just how well-rounded she is. She's got enough personality to keep things interesting, enough playfulness to make everyday life fun, and a wonderfully laid-back side that makes her easy to enjoy. She loves her people, gets along nicely with canine friends, and seems perfectly happy with the simple pleasures of being a loved family dog. If you've been hoping to find a friendly, affectionate, toy-loving girl with a little heeler charm and a whole lot of heart, Betty Bumble would love to be yours! Ready to bring Betty home?
