Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Darrow is a 4-year-old terrier mix who is being rehomed after his owner became very ill very suddenly. This wasn’t an easy decision, and Darrow has already been through a lot in his life — including coming from a very sad and scary investigation a couple of years ago. Because of his past, he’s looking for a special home that will give him the patience, understanding, and love he truly deserves.   &#226&#156&#168 About Darrow: Darrow is reserved and takes time to warm up. He’s independent and prefers to come to you when he is ready for affection, but when he does he loves a good chin or back scratch. Once he feels safe, he’s incredibly loyal and loving — but he is very wary of strangers and has what we describe as fear-based reactivity. He does best when his boundaries are respected.    Fenced in backyard is preferred as this little guys love to sunbathe!   Ideal Home: • Calm, adult-only household (females preferred)  • Minimal visitors / low-traffic home • No cats • Quiet environment with patient adopters • Would do best with an older, calm dog companion   If you think you might be that calm, patient, big-hearted human who understands that love sometimes comes with a little work… Darrow is waiting.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 7, 2026, 4:27 pm

PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! Hi… I’m **Moe** 🐾 I’m a 10-year-old Terrier, and yes — I’m blind. But you might not even notice! I’ve gotten pretty good at learning my surroundings, and once I know the “lay of the land,” I move around with confidence. My foster says I surprise everyone with how quickly I figure things out. I’m a sweet, loving, laid-back little guy who just wants to be near my human. That’s really my favorite thing — companionship. I enjoy gentle play, I get along with big and small dogs, and I’m friendly with kids too. I’m submissive, kind, and have a calm confidence about me. I may be a senior, but I still have a playful spark! I’m potty trained, but since I’m a blind senior, I do best when I’m let outside regularly on a schedule. Belly bands can also help if needed. I just need someone patient and understanding — I promise I’m worth it. My dream home would be calm and cozy. A small family (1–3 people) would be perfect, especially if someone is home most of the time — maybe you work from home or you’re retired? I’d really love that. I’d also enjoy having a small, gentle dog sibling to keep me company. A fenced backyard would make things easier for me to safely explore and do my business. I may not see the world with my eyes, but I feel it with my heart. And I have so much love left to give. If you’re looking for a loyal little companion who just wants to be by your side, I’m your guy. 💛 Adoption FEE: $150 which includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccines.

Story
 ***Bonded – Bow Wow & Lil Bit are bonded and must be adopted together.*** Meet Bow Wow and Lil Bit! Hi, we are Bow Wow and Lil Bit. We’ve been together for many years and can’t bear to be parted. We’re both curious, gentle and a little shy and we’re searching for a family that has LOVE enough for two. Bow Wow – I’m a 10-year-old Cairn terrier blend boy who weighs 12.6 lbs. I happily follow my best-friend-furever’s lead but I’m also fond of human cuddles. My enthusiastic wiggle when I see my people will tell them all they need to know. Lil Bit – I’m a three-legged Chihuahua who is 13.5 years old and weighs 6.5 lbs. I take the lead in our dynamic duo, like any self-respecting Chihuahua, but Bow Wow is my best friend in the world and we get along like two peas in a pod. I’m also in charge of surveillance in my home and neighborhood, so you can rest easy. Favorite Things: This pair eats, plays, and sleeps together and are very relaxed in each other’s company. Bow Wow loves to snuggle with his human and be scratched behind his ears. Lil Bit likes to sit on her human’s lap when it’s time to chill. They can take or leave toys, preferring to enjoy time with their people and their soulmates over playing with the squeaky stuff. Training & Manners: Bow Wow and Lil Bit are house trained when kept on a regular schedule. They have good basic manners, walk well on their leashes and tolerate a car ride. Both sleep in their own cozy beds at night in their foster home. Health & Care: This is a healthy pair who are up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, spayed/neutered, and recently had dental cleanings. They just need their monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog. Bow Wow will need professional grooming every 6-8 weeks to look and feel his best while Lil Bit will need regular baths and nail trims that can be done at home. Other Animals: Bow Wow and Lil Bit have experience with other small dogs as well as cats and get along with both but need slow introductions. Children: These two sweethearts would do best in a home with kind, understanding, older children (ages 12+), or a home with no kids and quiet senior living would be great too!  Ideal Home: This pair will need a home without stairs or a pool given Lil Bit’s three-legged physique. And they’ll do best in a single-family home because Lil Bit will bark to alert you to both strangers and visitors (she has a strong resume as security director). They can be left alone in the home for a few hours in a secure space. This duo would do best in a fenced-yard where they can sniff, explore and wander together safely in nature. Overall: If you’re looking for a cuddly couple who make wonderful companions for their people as well as each other, Bow Wow and Lil Bit might be the ones for you. If you think they might be, visit www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org to fill out an adoption application. If it seems like it could be a good match, their foster family will reach out with more information. The adoption donation for the pair is $350. ##1360029##
