Story
Welcome Sweet Oscar!   Oscar is a five-month-old, 10-pound Border Terrier mix puppy.   He is full of puppy energy and loves attention, toys, and food. Now that he is a bit older, Oscar's favorite activity is playing with the other small dogs in his foster home. Oscar has lots of energy for playtime and is very affectionate; he enjoys being a lap companion.    Oscar is housetrained and sleeps in a dog bed at night. He is crated when his foster mom runs errands, but, as a puppy, he should not be crated all day. We are looking for a forever home where someone is home often and can dedicate time to continue his socialization, basic obedience training, and active play. His ideal home will also have another small  playful dog.    Oscar is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. His adoption fee is $350, which helps cover medical expenses for the rescue.   If you are looking for an adorable and sweet puppy companion, please complete our online application at: https://www.helpadogsmile.org/adoption-application/ .  A volunteer coordinator will contact you after reviewing your submission.   *Please note that the application is not a commitment to adopt–it is a tool used to help determine if a dog and applicant would make a good match. Applications are forwarded to the foster family for review and follow-up .  January 4, 2026, 11:28 am

Story
Curtosey posting for owners. Meet Brewer – A Loyal, Loving Companion Looking for the Right Home. This is one of the hardest decisions we’ve ever had to make, but with a new baby at home, we’re looking for a new, safe, and loving environment for Brewer where he can truly thrive. Brewer is an incredibly sweet, affectionate dog with his people. Once he bonds with you, he is loyal, loving, and happiest just being near those he trusts. He enjoys calm routines, familiar faces, and a predictable environment. Brewer does struggle with anxiety and fear-based aggression toward unfamiliar people. Because of this, he would do best in a quiet, adult-only home with someone who is experienced with dogs who have behavioral challenges. He is currently on medication to help manage his anxiety and behavioral concerns, which has been helpful and should be continued under veterinary guidance. We believe Brewer would thrive in: • A home with no children, • A low-traffic household with limited visitors, • An owner experienced with reactive or anxious dogs, • Someone willing to continue working with a veterinarian or behavior professional. This decision comes from love and responsibility, we want what is best for Brewer and for our growing family. He deserves a home where he feels safe, understood, and supported. If you think you could be the right fit for Brewer and are willing to give him the patience and structure he needs, please reach out. We are committed to finding him the right home, not just any home.”. Please private message us if interested! ##2614219##

Sassafras is a sweet, social little girl who loves to play and make new friends. Her mom weighs about 25 pounds, and we expect Sassafras to stay a bit smaller when fully grown. She’ll be ready to join her new family the first week of February, when she’s about 10–11 weeks old. Sassafras will come spayed, microchipped, and with 4 puppy vaccinations. All of our adoptions come with one in-home session with one of our trainers. $550  January 18, 2026, 1:59 pm

Story
PWRESCUE.ORG *PHOENIX METRO AREA ONLY* (MUST HAVES): Another playful dog; secure fenced yard. Meet Freddie, a 4-month-old, 7½-pound bundle of puppy energy and charm! Freddie and his littermates were a joyful surprise when their mom—already in rescue—turned out to be expecting. Now this sweet, spirited boy is ready to find his forever home. Freddie is all boy, all puppy—high energy, playful, and always on the move. He loves to jump (clearly a skill inherited from his mom!) and is very food-motivated, which makes him a great candidate for training. He’s currently working on potty training and will need a family committed to continuing his education, including basic obedience, leash walking, and proper socialization to help him grow into a well-rounded adult dog. Like most puppies, Freddie adores his toys—especially chew toys and tug ropes—and he has one non-negotiable requirement: a big, soft, fluffy bed for post-playtime naps! He enjoys mealtime, sometimes barking with excitement, gobbles his food, and loves working for treats with his snuffle mat. Freddie has the classic puppy wiggles but does settle down and truly enjoys being petted and brushed. He would do best in a home with another playful dog to show him the ropes and help burn off his puppy energy. A secure, fenced yard is also required for safe zoomies and playtime. If you’re ready for puppy antics, laughter, and lots of love, Freddie may be the perfect addition to your family!  Freddie is up to date on vaccinations, neutered, and microchipped.  His adoption fee is $350.00.  Please visit our website at:  https://pwrescue.org and click on the "Adoption Application" button to complete an application.Pathways Home Animal Rescue January 3, 2026, 6:26 pm
