Story
Meet Sweet Pea! She is a happy homebody that would love her own nice quiet home! She is good with other dogs, puppies and cats. She is a shy, sweet girl that needs some extra time to adjust to her new home. Sweet Pea has learned to love her walks prancing along. She would probably do best in a "foster to adopt" situation because meeting new people can be a little scary for her. Sweet Pea loves her crate and finds comfort in there during the day and sleeping at night. Once you gain her trust, she is a loyal companion. Sweet Pea is around 5.5 yrs old and was DNA tested by her foster. She shows a total of 10 different breeds, with her top 2 breeds are American Staffordshire terrier (39%) and Chihuahua (25%). She even has a little smidge of Dachshund and Poodle too! Her adoption fee is $495 and includes her spay, vaccines, deworming, microchip and flea medication.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Check Me out !Meet Cookie! This adorable black and white Chihuahua mix may be small, but he's full of personality! Cookie and dozens of other dogs were saved from a hoarding situation, and while the outside world was new and scary at first, this brave little guy is blossoming more each day. At 3-4 months old, Cookie will remain small when fully grown, making him a perfect pint-sized companion. Cookie is playful with other dogs, great with kids of all ages, and gets along with cats. He's working on leash training and does well in his pen during the day—though fair warning, this little climber is quite the escape artist! He'll need a secure home with vigilant door monitoring until he's learned some better training. Cookie is still a bit shy and reserved as he continues coming out of his shell, so he'll thrive with a patient family who can help him gain confidence. If you're looking for a sweet, small companion to nurture and love, Cookie is ready to find his forever home! If interested in meeting Cookie, please click HERE to apply! His adoption fee is $495, which includes up-to-date vaccines, a microchip, and neuter at the proper age.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 21, 2025, 8:31 pm
