Looking for a professional snuggler who prioritizes quality time over everything else? Meet Mia, the gentle soul who is ready to turn your house into a home filled with warmth and tail wags! Mia is the ultimate people person who lives for cuddles and gentle companionship. She is the kind of dog who would rather lean into you for a scratch behind the ears than chase a tennis ball any day! With her polite manners no jumping here! and her calm, sweet nature, she’s basically a walking hug. Whether you’re looking for a Netflix buddy or a walking partner, Mia is ready to be your right hand girl. Before you keep reading, you have to see this sweet face on camera, watch her video to see those Boxer wiggles for yourself! https://youtu.be/RcBoMioEljY Mia is what we call a Velcro dog in the best way possible; she just wants to be wherever you are. She isn’t one for high intensity toys; instead, she finds her joy in being your shadow, following you from room to room just to make sure you’re okay. She’s a go with the flow girl who is just as happy napping by your feet while you work as she is exploring the neighborhood on a nice, long walk. We think Mia is a darling Boxer mix, and she’s the perfect size for someone looking for a "compact" companion. She’s sturdy enough for adventures but small and manageable enough to take anywhere with ease! Like all of our rescue residents, her breed mix is our best "guesstimate," but her 100% pure-hearted personality is no mystery at all. Mia is currently thriving in her foster home, where she’s showing off her "A+" student skills! She is a total dream on the leash, making outdoor strolls a breeze, and her manners extend to the car, where she is a calm and easy passenger. A social butterfly at heart and a top tier houseguest. Mia definitely understands the assignment! She’s a potty training prodigy with a sparkling "zero accidents" record that would make any rug proud. When it’s time for some "me time," she treats her crate like a five star private spa. She is crate trained and stays perfectly quiet, proving she really knows the value of a peaceful beauty sleep. She’s currently soaking up every ounce of love her foster family can dish out, and she is more than ready to bring her A+ vibes (and her impeccable manners) to a forever home. While Mia is a total social butterfly with humans, she prefers to be the center of your world for now. She’s looking for a home where she can be your one and only four legged friend no doggy daycares or crowded dog parks needed! She’s working on her "meet and greets" with other pups, and her foster is even committed to taking her to classes to help her shine even brighter. For now, she’s ready to be your exclusive solo dog. Is she a fan of feline friends? That’s a secret she hasn’t shared yet! To make sure it’s a perfect match, Mia would love to have a "sleepover" with a kitty to see if they can be best buds, or if she’d prefer a cat free castle to call her own. Mia is the perfect candidate for almost any living situation! Because she is so gentle and walks so well, she could be a star in a cozy apartment or a house with a yard. As long as there is a soft bed (or a spot on the couch next to you) and plenty of forehead kisses, Mia will be happy. Her silly Boxer mix personality and nose to toes sweetness make her a one of a kind find. In short, Mia is a gentle, leash walking pro who just wants to love and be loved in return. She is a low maintenance lady with a high quality heart, ready to settle into her forever home. Ready to make this sweet girl a permanent part of your family? https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/69d531726b4e8876f6035337 Questions?

You just found a four-legged Clover! Consider yourself lucky! This Clover comes with a little luck, a lot of love, and a gorgeous brindle coat Clover does not dissapoint, from the moment you meet her she is all wiggly greetings, bright eyes, and that “where have you been all my life?” energy. Go watch her in action on YouTube then come right back, because this girl is equal parts charm and spark, and she’s worth getting to know. https://youtu.be/xHUO52aifFQ Clover is estimated to be around 3 years old and appears to be a Boxer/Pittie mix. As always with rescue, breed and birthday are our best guess, but her personality is something we know for sure, and it’s a fun one. She’s smart, expressive, and clearly enjoys working with her people. She already knows “sit” and “speak,” and when you give her a little direction (and maybe a snack or two), she locks in and tries her heart out. She has all the makings of a dog who will make training feel like a shared activity instead of a chore. Her vibe with people is easy and natural. Clover greets with a full-body wiggle, checks in often, and genuinely enjoys being part of whatever you’re doing. She has well-loved dog energy and a deep love for booty-scratches. With other dogs, Clover is social and friendly with a classic boxer-ish playstyle and big personality. She met a big bully boy who loved her confident, rough and tumble energy and matched it perfectly! With each new dog she met it was easy to see that although she has a love for some rowdy play, she reads other dogs well, and adjusts when she meets a dog who has calm companion presence. She did especially well with a steady, confident male who kept things neutral, and she also showed she can coexist nicely with calmer, more submissive dogs. Clover could happily live with another dog but is also so people adoring that she could easily be happy as a solo dog. She also showed really nice manners when she met a small and spicy dog. No matter how reactive he got she stayed calm and chose to disengage and focus on her people instead. That choice-making says a lot about her. Clover also met our house cat and handled it with a calm, respectful approach. She was curious but not pushy, and more inclined to give space than create tension. With a dog-savvy cat and a thoughtful introduction, she has the potential to do well, though an overnight trial would be ideal to confirm. On leash, Clover brings that same enthusiasm she has for life. She’s strong, engaged, and still learning how to channel all that excitement into a more relaxed walk. She’ll benefit from continued leash work and structure, and once she has that, she’s going to be a really fun, interactive walking buddy. Because of her love of zoomies and current leash skills, Clover would be happiest in a home with a yard rather than an apartment setting. She will thrive with room to run and play. Clover is a true catch- smart, affectionate, confident, and perfectly prepared and ready to be someone’s sidekick. She doesn’t need perfection, just a person who appreciates her personality and is excited to guide her as she grows even further into her very best self. If you’re looking for a confident, people-loving girl with a playful edge and a heart to match, Clover is ready and waiting. Apply today! Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Meet Mabel, the brindle-and-white beauty with a heart as soft as her favorite squeaky toy! 💖 Mabel is a boxer-pitty mix (breed not promised!) with golden eyes that sparkle with sweetness and just a hint of sass. She’s the total package — equal parts gentle snugglebug and goofy playmate. Her dream day? Snoozing on a cozy couch, collecting belly rubs, squeaking her beloved stuffies to her heart’s content, and basking in the love of her people. Mabel is the kind of girl who gives her whole heart once she trusts you — she just takes a minute to make sure you’re as kind as you look. Once she knows you’re safe, get ready for the melt-your-heart cuddles and her signature “Mabel lean,” where she presses her whole body against you for hugs. She loves love and is the perfect match for someone who wants a calm, affectionate companion who’s happiest just being near you. Watch Mabel in action here! https://youtu.be/tWLIvDsTjH8?si=5UhqFJb2MAA5_K-f She enjoys the company of other dogs who have good manners — she’s kind of like the hall monitor of the playgroup, gently reminding everyone to keep things civilized. 😆 She has a soft spot for respectful, chill doggy friends but could just as happily be the only spoiled princess soaking up all the attention herself. Mabel also met a kitty friend and did great — she was curious but polite, choosing to quietly observe instead of chase. With a slow introduction and some supervision, she could share her home with a confident cat buddy. This gorgeous girl is low-energy at heart, more of a “Netflix-and-snack” gal than a “5-mile-hike” type. She’s gentle, easy to correct, and loves routine. Because she can get a little unsure of other dogs while on leash, she’d do best in a home (no apartments, please!) where she can relax and enjoy life without too many leashed meet-and-greets. If you’re looking for a sweet, soulful companion with the perfect mix of cuddle and character, Mabel’s your girl. 💕 One look into those golden eyes, and you’ll be absolutely smitten — promise. Mabel’s dream home: Calm, loving humans, maybe a respectful dog friend or a cat, a cozy couch, and endless squeaky toys. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

If you're looking for a best friend with the absolute best smile and a sugary sweet affectionate soul, meet Tango the Tiny Dancer. This boy is the full package: loyal, playful, soooo loving, and a total goofball with the pittie head that’ll make you fall in love at first sight! We believe Tango is a Boxer/Pittie mix around 1 year old and weighs approximately 45 pounds. He has the perfect little compact body and the most handsome face ever. Due to him being a rescue, age and breed are our best guess and cannot be guaranteed. Check out Tango here: https://youtu.be/CS4K0UqmYSs Tango has never met a stranger. He’s the kind of dog who walks into a room and instantly makes everyone feel like they’ve been best friends for years. And if you’ve got treats? Well, buckle up, because you’ve just become the center of his universe. He was not shy giving everyone at the property his undivided attention for a quick round of kisses and puppy tail wags. Treats are the way to this boy’s heart, and he’ll show his appreciation with his signature toothy grin and the happiest tail wag you’ve ever seen. His love for people runs deep. His foster says her favorite thing about him is how he’ll climb into her lap and just gaze at her like she’s the most important person in the world. He is cuddly beyond belief and would absolutely thrive in a home where he can curl up next to you, soaking in all the love you have to give. Tango has lived harmoniously with a full dog squad, four pups in total, and he's been the life of the party. Whether it’s his dominant older foster sister, his high-energy lab buddy, or two playful 1.5-year-old boys. He knows how to read the room and match energy. He plays respectfully, knows when to follow the rules, and can roughhouse with the best of them. He also attends a daycare where he mingles like a pro with a group of 20-30 dogs. His best friends there? A Doberman and another pittie. He really shines around dogs his size or playful puppies who love a good game of chase. He would thrive in a home with another medium energy dog to spend his days with. After a bit of play, Tango knows how to settle down. One of our favorite moments with him was after the crowd cleared and he just hung out with us in a quiet room, relaxed and content, soaking up some one-on-one time. He’ll make a great adventure buddy followed by an evening relaxing on the couch. He walks beautifully on leash and would be the kind of dog you take to the park, patio, or trail and know he’ll be right by your side, smiling the whole way. At home, he’s crate trained and sleeps through the night like a champ. He would do best in a home with a yard to run off his zoomies, and we can easily see him thriving with older, dog-savvy kids who’ll love him as much as he loves them. If there is a certain age that you are curious to know how Tango interacts with, let us know. We will be happy to find out. We want to make sure he is perfect for your family! Cats, however, are not his cup of tea. He’s all about the people and the pups. He doesn’t need much to be happy, just a little space to play, a lap to lean into, and someone to share his big heart with. Tango is the definition of man’s best friend, but really, he’s everyone’s best friend. If you're looking for a loyal, fun-loving, treat-motivated cuddle machine with the biggest heart and a head you’ll want to smooch daily, Tango the kissy Dancer is ready to two-step his way right into your life.

Our on-site trainers support the positive growth of our dogs and we enjoy seeing their progress! Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond. Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet. The rescue’s hard costs alone for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,120. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast.

Our goal is simple— to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and by rescuing animals from the streets or overcrowded shelters where euthanasia due to lack of space is often the only option. The dog you've found online is not only lucky to be in our program, but also incredibly fortunate to have caught your eye. Thank you for considering adoption and for joining us in our mission!

Meet George, a 10-month-old goofball with a heart full of love and a body that seems to be powered entirely by joy. George is the kind of puppy who believes the world exists to be loved, kissed, and played with, preferably all at once. From the moment you meet him, he wiggles his whole squishy little body straight into your space, climbs right into your lap, and reminds you that no one is a stranger—just a friend he hasn’t kissed yet. His sweet, goofy puppy smile and endlessly wagging, longgg tail (which functions more like a propeller) make it impossible not to fall for him instantly. George absolutely adores people. He is affectionate, cuddly, and so eager to be part of whatever you’re doing. He would be thrilled to be your shadow, your couch companion, your adventure buddy, and your reason to laugh every single day. Despite his busy puppy energy, he has a soft, loving side and is happiest when he’s close to his humans, soaking up attention and giving out kisses like it’s his full-time job. Watch his video, then you'll officially be in love! https://youtu.be/slAlUsSrZpc?si=DIMvZoA5PTxIgSY2 When George isn’t loving on his people, he is playing—because play is truly his greatest passion in life. He is incredibly dog-friendly and greets every dog the exact same way: an immediate play bow, lots of kisses, and then straight into joyful chaos. Confident dogs, shy dogs, playful dogs, aloof dogs—George loves them all. He is a rough-and-rowdy, pushy puppy player who thrives with dogs that enjoy that style of play. He loves running, chasing games, tug, sharing toys, and even lazy play sessions. One of his most endearing quirks is his signature move of ducking under things like they’re his own personal tunnels, because clearly that’s the more fun route. George currently lives with multiple dogs and does great in a pack, and he would absolutely love having dog siblings in his future home. That said, he also loves his people just as much and could be happy as an only dog if his humans are ready to keep him engaged and active. George is still very much a puppy and comes with all that happy, bouncy energy. He walks beautifully on leash and checks in constantly, turning to you with eye contact when you say “let’s go,” making him a wonderful companion for walks, outings, and adventures. He would be the perfect dog to take everywhere with you, always ready for the next experience as long as he’s by your side. He does live with cats and approaches them with sweet, goofy intentions, but he can be a little too playful at times. He doesn’t want to harm them—he just wants them to play, endlessly, even when they are very clearly done. Because of this, a cat-free home would be ideal. However, we do think he could go into a home with kitty friends. If he were to live with cats, he would need a playful dog companion to redirect his energy, along with cats who have safe spaces to escape and take a break. George loves kids and does well with them, but he is a growing boy with a lot of enthusiasm and can be a bit rough in his excitement. Older kids who can handle his bouncy play and occasional hops of love would be the best fit. He would be an amazing family dog; he’s playful and cuddly, the perfect formula for a kiddo’s best friend! As for his future home, George is an extremely adaptable pup. He could do well in an apartment with an active family or in a home with a yard where he can zoom and burn off some of that puppy energy. Continued training will help him channel all that excitement, but his eagerness to engage and love people makes him a joy to work with. George is, at his core, a silly, affectionate, playful little soul who wants nothing more than to love hard and live life to the fullest. If you’re looking for a dog who will make you laugh, keep you moving, and love you with his entire wiggly body, George is ready to be your best friend. 💙 Ready to welcome this goofball into your life?
