Precious is a sweet and mellow 10 lb girl who is looking for a quiet place to hang out. She is in her golden years and would prefer a quiet low-traffic home. She absolutely loves to go for walks! And she loves to eat treats! Precious takes some time and gentleness to warm up to new people, but then she will be pawing at you to keep rubbing her belly! She has been able to coexist around dogs with a similar energy. If you have a couch and a bag of treats with Precious's name on it, she's waiting to meet you! Call our adoptions team to learn more about her. Primary Color: Tan Secondary Color: White Weight: 5.7 Age: 10yrs 5mths 2wks

Story
Oh boy. Blitzen is appropriately named because he is a fireball of energy, love, enthusiasm and kisses. He can climb fences and will do just about anything to stay with his people at all times. You would never know he is 8 years young since he has the energy of a puppy. He’s barely 6 pounds so he can travel everywhere easily and will insist on doing so. Please apply if you’re lucky enough to be able to be with your dogs all the time. Blitzen will not do well at home alone all day and a dog as special as this one, deserves the entire world. He would do best with other female dogs or no dogs at all. His ideal human will center their entire existence around his every whim.

Story
It doesn’t get cuter than Carrot. This seven pound, 3-year old sweetheart has an abundance of affection and personality. He will keep you entertained and loved. He loves everyone he meets and the feeling is usually mutual, unless you’re a small unaltered male dog. Carrot seems to give off alpha vibes but he doesn’t mean to do so. Other male dogs are threatened by his charm and good looks so they come at him with their energy and he sticks up for himself but he doesn’t fight. He shows his teeth and they back off. Carrot would love a home with older neutered males or females. He’s too regal for juvenile nonsense. Why posture when you can cuddle? Carrot would prefer to go on exotic adventures to the feed store or the park or even just a good old fashioned Netflix and chill with his amazing new home. We just have to find this amazing new home for Carrot. He wanted us to mention that he is not vegan, despite the name. Given the choice, he would have named himself Bacon.

Story
Our amazing Bartholomew came to us while he was at death’s door. He was painfully thin with severe dental disease. We could not touch his head, not even his ears, he was in so much pain. We’re not sure how old he is but we’d guess between 10-12 years (and about the same number of pounds). We neutered him and fixed his mouth. The infection was terrible but he recovered quickly and started to eat almost immediately! Now he’s a legit ranch dog! He comes out to feed the goats, horses and pig every morning and night, he plays, and then runs back to the house. Truth be told, he’s a bit arthritic and stiff so “play” and “run” are relative in this regard but he does the cutest gallop and sometimes his back end goes faster than his front end but he always manages to stay upright and he always knows where his foster mama is. Bartholomew loves to sleep in bed with his human and the other dogs, but he’s also content to sleep in a cozy bed on the floor. He can’t get up and down from the bed on his own so he will need his own “staff” for lifting, etc. Bartholomew’s transformation in our care has been nothing shy of spectacular. He is pure love inside and out. His coat went from sad and dull to shiny and vibrant. His personality has always been charming. If you’re looking for an older gentleman to brighten your days Bartholomew is your man.

Story
Check out this most gorgeous little 7 pound girl. Tessa is super soft and will cuddle and receive kisses when held, but she’s still afraid to be picked up. She came to us with her BFF Kevin who was even more terrified upon arrival. He has since warmed up but Tessa will need some time and patience to heal from her terrifying life. Tessa and Kevin were found in a pen on the side of a river with a bunch of other sick and terrified dogs. She’s only a few years old but she’s been through a lot. Luckily she’s learning to love life. She plays well with other dogs and she loves puppies. It will take her some time to trust humans but she’s on her way and she’s well worth the wait.
