Story
Urgent! 2 weeks left before I have to surrender her to the shelter. Please help!Reina is a sweet girl who loves to run and play. She is an indoor girly but loves being outside with company. She needs a little bit of training but knows commands like sit, paw, lay, and roll for a treat of course, she is very food motivated. She’s good with kids but tends to knock them over sometimes with her big self as she tries to kiss them (needs training). She likes other dogs and loves to socialize. She doesn’t bite cats but will try to play with them. She would do vey well in a home with attention and love.

Story
It breaks our hearts to write this, but we are looking to rehome our dog to the right family.We rescued him from a kill shelter, and he has been nothing but loving, loyal, and incredibly sweet ever since. This dog truly has a big heart—always happy to be near people, full of affection, and eager to be part of the family.He is not aggressive at all—no history of biting or mean behavior. The challenge is simply their high energy and lack of awareness around our Newborn. Since bringing home our newborn, we’ve realized he doesn'tunderstand how fragile a baby is. In their excitement, they have accidentally stepped on and tried to lay on the baby, which could lead to unintentional injury.This is truly a loving dog who just needs the right environment to thrive. They deserve a home where their energy and affection are a perfect fit.We are committed to finding them a safe, happy home where he will be loved as much as he is here.

PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! Okay revamped the whole bio and caption because I’m an OCD perfectionist lol: Hi, I’m Butters 🧈 🐾 ABOUT ME: • 3 months old • Boxer mix • Mostly blind & deaf • Dog-friendly (I like them but they don’t always like me 😅) • Playful, loving, and goofy • Well-behaved in the home • Still learning crate training & basic puppy manners I may be mostly blind and deaf, but that doesn’t stop me from being a happy little puppy who absolutely loves life. Before rescue, I was found dumped outside of a Mexican restaurant all alone. It’s likely my previous owners realized I had special needs and decided they didn’t want me anymore. But their loss is going to become someone else’s greatest gift, because I’m an incredibly resilient, loving puppy with so much joy packed into my tiny body. Because of my special needs, it is ESSENTIAL that I go to a home with another confident, friendly dog. I rely heavily on other dogs for comfort, guidance, direction, and learning. Having a canine companion helps me feel safe and understand the world around me. Sometimes I accidentally play a little too rough or miss social cues because I can’t see or hear well, so I need a patient dog sibling who can gently guide me and help teach me boundaries. Having another dog around truly helps me build confidence and thrive. 🏡 MY IDEAL HOME: 🐾 A fenced yard where I can safely run and play 🐾 At least one friendly, confident dog sibling 🐾 A patient family willing to continue my training and routine 🐾 A home where someone is around most of the time to help me learn and grow I’m still a baby, so I’ll need consistency, structure, patience, and lots of love while I continue learning how to “dog.” But I promise I’m worth it. 💛 A little note from my foster: “Butters is still settling in, but he’s already showing what a wonderful puppy he is. With time, guidance, and love, he’s going to make an amazing addition to a very lucky family.” 🐾 Adoption FEE: $600, which includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccines.

Story
PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! Hi, I’m Moody 🌙🐾 I’m a 7-month-old staffy-boxer mix sweetheart with a gentle, shy personality and so much love to give. I can be a little nervous at first and might take some time to feel comfortable, but once I trust you, I turn into the biggest cuddle bug—you’ll have a loyal little shadow by your side 💛 I’m very laid back and easygoing. I love going on walks (I’m great on leash and don’t pull!) and then coming home to relax and snuggle. As I settle in, my playful side is starting to come out more and more, and it’s been so fun discovering the world at my own pace. I’m potty trained and do well in my crate—I stay quiet and calm. I’m still building confidence, especially when it comes to new things like putting on a leash (I might plop down and get a little unsure), but I’m improving every day with patience and encouragement. I get along well with other dogs and would do great in a home with a calm companion to help me feel more secure. I’d also do well in an apartment or a house, as long as I have a loving, patient family who will give me time to come out of my shell. My ideal home would be one where someone is looking for a cuddle companion and understands that I may need a little time to fully open up. Once I do, I promise I’ll give you all the love in the world. A little note from my foster: Moody is the sweetest boy. He may be shy at first, but once he feels safe, he becomes such a loving, affectionate companion—you just have to give him that chance 🌙🐾💛 Adoption FEE: $450, which includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccines.

Story
Baxter is an eight-month-old puppy with a big personality and an even bigger fan club. He’s about 30+ pounds, very people-oriented, and was selected to play in the 2026 Puppy Bowl, which suits him perfectly. He’s playful, affectionate, and full of that easygoing, happy energy that makes him fun to be around. He enjoys playtime, loves his treats, and is picking up leash manners and basic commands quickly. Baxter can be a little shy when he first meets someone, but he warms up fast and is soon ready to cuddle. He does well with dogs, cats, and kids, so he’s a good fit for many different types of homes. Baxter was rescued from the streets of Puerto Rico along with his siblings Maverick, Cash, and Stormi. In spite of his rough start, he’s a bright, friendly puppy with a striking blue eye and a very affectionate nature. He would do especially well in a home with another friendly dog to play with and learn from. For a family looking for a sweet, playful young dog who can keep up with an active life and then settle in for snuggles, Baxter has a lot to offer. He is ready for a home where he can grow up, be part of the family, and enjoy many more adventures. ##2514601##

Story
EXERCISE NEEDS: Daily Workout EASE OF TRAINING: Eager FRIENDLINESS WITH PEOPLE: Outgoing PLAYFULNESS: Semi-Pro FRIENDLINESS WITH DOGS: Prefers People LEASH MANNERS: Pulls Sometimes ​If you are looking for a dog who will be your absolute shadow and best friend, look no further than Krieg. This two-year-old Bully mix is the definition of a gentle giant when it comes to his human friends. His favorite thing in the world is simply being near people; whether he’s greeting you with a full-body wiggle or leaning his heavy head against your knee for a "hug," he makes sure you know exactly how much he appreciates your company. He is a world-class snuggler who would happily spend his entire afternoon curled up on the couch right beside you. ​While he certainly loves a good nap, Krieg also has a wonderful, goofy side that comes out during playtime. He is a total toy expert and gets incredibly focused when his favorites are involved, making him a joy to watch. He is also a star pupil whenever snacks are on the table; his high treat-motivation makes him a fast learner and a pleasure to engage with. He truly lives for affection and will often give you a gentle nudge if he thinks you’ve stopped the ear scratches a little too soon. ​Krieg has found the hustle and bustle of the shelter environment a bit stressful, and as a result, he is looking for a home where he can be the only dog. He is ready to soak up all your attention for himself, and in return, he’ll give you a lifetime of loyalty and devoted companionship. Krieg is a resilient, loving soul who is more than ready to trade his kennel for a real home. If you have room in your heart—and plenty of space on your sofa—for a big marshmallow of a dog, Krieg is waiting to meet you.
