Story
Meet Ray (RayRay)! Ray is such a great guy! Very loving and easy going. He gets around almost like he's not blind! He runs outside and barks at the horse, etc. like all of our other pups do. He keeps up with them as well. He LOVES his food and even eats dry food soaked in warm broth despite not having many teeth. He loves sleeping on the couch while you're watching TV and he sleeps under the covers in our bed at night. Ray still has accidents in the house but is getting better at using the pee pad. He is great in a crate when eating and when we're gone. He gets along with all of the other pups but loves being near Esther (Essie) and it would be awesome if they got adopted together. He is still very playful and plays with some of the other dogs but the one he plays with the most is Essie. They run around the house too.

Story
Meet Esther (Essie)! Essie, like Ray, has come a long way from when they were rescued and in horrible condition. Essie loves her humans and wants to be where they are. She gets the zoomies and will run around the house either by herself or with another friend. She also loves her food!! She loves sleeping right next to you on the couch and under the covers next to you in bed. Essie still has accidents inside but is getting better at peeing on the pad. She is great in her crate as well when we're gone. She gets along with the rest of the pack but RayRay is her best friend. If they could be adopted together that would be awesome. She is very playful and would love a big backyard to tear around in.

Chihuahua

Male, 1 yr

Size

Details
Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Pablo came into rescue with Pepper thru one of out regular fosters. She had taken them out of a bad situation and then asked us to place them. Pablo is a tiny boy but he does have little dog syndrome and thinks he can take on the world! At just under 7 pounds, this boy has a huge personality and can be loving and sweet or fiesty and spicy. Pablo can be very vocal when he wants something. Pablo is a pretty active little guy but he gets along great with other dogs and should do fine with cats since most will probably be bigger than him and can put him in his place. Because of his small size and (sometimes) spicy nature, we do not recommend him for very small children. He should do fine with older kids who can understand and respect his space and who can be careful not to step on him or hurt him by being rough with him. Pablo is crate trained, although he doesn't like being in one much. He would prefer to be out and about with you. Pablo is a fun boy and the perfect size for traveling and/or taking him with you on your adventures. Pablo will make a wonderful companion! Pablo saw the vet on 1/13/26 and was found to have no issues. He has been started on Simparica Trio for flea control and heartworm prevention with us and had a negative heartworm test. He did test negative for intestinal parasites, however tapes were observed in his stool so we dewormed him with Drontal. Pablo weighed 6.7 pounds as of 1/13/26. He is fully vetted now and ready to find his forever family. If interested in giving Pablo his forever home, please submit your interest and your adoption application via email or text ONLY to 352-215-3260 (phone calls will not be answered or returned from this number). Pablo's adoption fee will be $300 to help cover the cost of his vetting and daily care while with us. We will only consider applicants who complete the adoption application and will determine whether the applicant would be a good fit for Pablo based on the info provided in the application. If we feel that you will be a good match for him, we will set up a meet and greet appointment with you.
