To be considered for adoption, pls submit an application in advance.   Adoption fee: $650   Meet Linus! 10-12 weeks old * Chug * 7 lbs   Linus's siblings got adopted, so he's currently being fostered with Blaze, who is also flying solo.   Blaze and Linus are the last of their litter still waiting for forever homes, and while they didn’t plan it this way, being fostered together has turned into something really special. They were feeling a little lonely on their own, so they were paired up— and quickly became the very best of friends. You’ll often find them wrestling, racing around the yard, sharing toys, or curled up together in the same bed for naps and nighttime sleep.   Daily routine These boys start their day bright and early, usually between 5:30–6:00am, when playtime begins. Linus is typically the spokesperson, barking to let the humans know they’re ready to come out of the pen for potty and start the day. Breakfast follows around 6:30–7:00am, lunch between 1:00–2:30pm, and dinner around 6–7pm. By 8–9pm, they’re happily settling into their x-pen for the night. They eat puppy kibble, enjoy dog treats, and get the occasional bully stick. Since they’re not fully vaccinated yet, they’re not going on walks, but they get plenty of playtime at home and in the yard—which they absolutely love.   When no one is home, they’re safely contained in their pen. On three weekdays, that’s typically from about 7:45am until early afternoon. When the family is home, Blaze and Linus rotate between their play area, supervised time roaming the house, and joyful zoomies in the yard.   When he transitioned to his new foster home, Linus gained confidence quickly and began following Blaze out to explore and play. He’s athletic, strong, and impressively clever. He often has the edge during wrestling matches and has been known to perch thoughtfully on top of barriers, deciding whether to retreat or leap to freedom. He’s affectionate, soft-coated, and adores other dogs!   Blaze and Linus are playful, energetic puppies with lots of enthusiasm for life. They love tug-of-war, chasing each other, running with kids, and tearing around the yard—especially through leaf piles. If one finds a leaf or stick, the other must have the same one, even if there are a hundred more nearby. They’re not velcro dogs, but that may be because they have each other; they naturally gravitate back together if they’re ever apart.   They adore people of all ages, including kids (9–14), greeting everyone with excitement, kisses, and requests to be picked up. Both are affectionate, enjoy laps and being held, and are especially cuddly when they’re winding down after a busy day.   Training & habits They’re doing well with potty pads in their pen and are learning to use pads more consistently in larger spaces. As puppies, they do nip and chew, especially when excited or teething, but they’re easily redirected to toys and are learning quickly.   Why you’ll love him Linus is clever, athletic, and emotionally tuned in, always checking on his people and his best friend. Together, they’re funny, loving, and endlessly entertaining.   Blaze and Linus are the kind of puppies who leave paw prints on your heart— and who will happily end every day with one last cuddle before bed.January 21, 2026, 1:55 pm

To be considered for adoption, pls submit an application in advance.   Adoption fee: $600 Meet Harley! Harley is a 4 year old, 5 lb (TINY!) Chihuahua who was rescued from a noisy, overwhelming shelter — a scary place for such a little girl. But once she left that behind, her true personality started to shine! Harley is gentle, loving, and devoted — a little shadow who just wants to be near her favorite person.   Her foster says Harley is a total sweetheart who has quickly adapted to home life. Her mornings start around 6 a.m. with a quick potty break in the yard, followed by her favorite ritual: snuggling back into bed with her humans. Breakfast is served around 7, and she loves hunting for her kibble in a snuffle mat or treat puzzle. Harley enjoys a few short, brisk walks throughout the day, with plenty of time for cuddling in between. Her evenings end with dinner, a cozy lap session, and curling up in bed — ideally tucked under the covers beside her person, her absolute favorite place to sleep.   Harley’s personality is calm and affectionate. She’s a true lap dog and Velcro companion who thrives on closeness and attention. She loves being praised and melts into your arms for cuddles. She’s a low-energy, low-maintenance girl — more of a lounger than a hiker — who still enjoys sniffy strolls and the occasional chase after a squirrel. She’s alert and will give a few barks to announce visitors, but quiets quickly once she knows all is well.   Harley is working on her housetraining and doing well with frequent potty breaks and positive reinforcement. She’s fine with gentle children, though their high energy can make her nervous, and is fine coexisting with other calm dogs, though she's not interested in playing and may be a bit put off by dogs with a ton of energy. She's a low-key lady!   What makes Harley special is how deeply she bonds with her person. She’s incredibly sweet, obedient, and full of love — the kind of dog who makes every day brighter just by being near you. Whether she’s snuggled into a blanket on the couch or curled up in bed, Harley’s happiest when she’s close to the person she adores.   If you’re looking for a tiny companion who will love you with her whole heart and make you feel like the most important person in the world, Harley is waiting to meet you.  January 21, 2026, 1:55 pm
