Story
Peach is a sweet girl, 5 yr old and 9 lbs. Our organization took her in after the owners had family issues and they couldn't take care of her any longer. Peach is a very loving girl,, goes on a pee pad, gets along with other dogs and adult humans. She would be the perfect companion to someone that works from home or is retired. She loves her humans and prefers a calm environment, therefore an adult only family or with older kids (12+) would be ideal. Peach is smart too!!! This girl is a true gem and deserves a loving family. Please submit your application at www.drwb.org

Story
🚨 ADOPTION ALERT: ONE (1) PROFESSIONAL CUDDLER SEEKING FULL-TIME EMPLOYMENT 🚨 🌟 Meet Sadie 🌟 AKA: Sweet Angel. Chaos Mutt. Your Future Shadow. Sadie is a super sweet, affectionate super mutt made up of mostly Chihuahua… plus dachshund, poodle, minpin… and whatever else the universe felt like sprinkling in that day. At 25 lbs, she’s the perfect size: big enough for adventures, small enough to steal your spot on the couch. ✔️ Loves other dogs ✔️ Friendly with men & women ✔️ Potty trained (because she’s a lady) ✔️ Walks well on a leash ✔️ Enjoys car rides, swimming, and pretending she’s the main character When she’s not busy living her best life, Sadie specializes in elite-level cuddling. She prefers to be: • on your lap • by your feet • pressed directly against you • or all of the above at once Personal space? She’s never heard of her. She’s spayed, fully vaccinated, and ready to move into her forever home immediately. Kids and cats haven’t been tested yet, but she’s gentle, loving, and eager to please — basically a gold star student. ⚠️ Warning: Adopting Sadie may result in excessive affection, constant companionship, and wondering how you ever lived without her. 💛 Apply to adopt Sadie — your couch (and heart) will thank you.
