SORRY DAISY WAS ADOPTED We are now accepting applications for our sweet girl Daisy Mae. She has quite a story and has been through so much. We received an urgent plea from a county shelter to save her. Poor Daisy was a stray in a neighborhood for weeks and the saddest part is she was born with luxating patella's aka her knees were out of the joint. It was so painful to watch her even walk when we rescued her. The fact this scared dog was a stray with this deformity broke our heart. Fast forward to today our rescue paid to have her surgery done and it was a success. Daisy is doing great is no and is no pain anymore and very happy Daisy is nervous at first and is a typical chihuahua, fearful at first and then strongly protective and loving. Daisy loves to cuddle on our extra large pet bed we have. She is healthy and loves our foster dad dearly.

I’d be happiest in a home where someone is around most of the time and I have a dog sibling to hang out with. I also love spending time in a fenced backyard, but I have to admit… I’m not a fan of putting on my harness. Walks are fun, but getting ready can be tricky—I sometimes get a little mischievous! My perfect home would have: * A dog sibling (big or small) * NO kids * A fenced backyard I’m a happy, silly guy who loves to make people laugh. I’m curious, playful, and full of energy, but I also love cuddles and belly rubs. If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving buddy who will keep you entertained every day, I’m your guy!

PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! Hi friends, it’s me, Smokey. I may be 11 years old, but don’t let that fool you — I still have so much love left to give. I’m a gentle, laid-back little guy who’s just happy to be by your side. I love roaming around the yard, following my person like a loyal little shadow, and soaking up all the love and sunshine I can find. I’m partially blind and deaf, but that doesn’t stop me one bit. I’d love a calm home where someone is around most of the time — maybe with a sweet pup sibling to keep me company. A fenced yard would make me so happy so I can safely explore and sniff all the smells. I’m house-trained (with my little diaper just in case), and while I’m not a fan of the crate, I promise I’m a very good boy in the house. I might make a few funny faces when you pick me up — I’m just a sensitive senior figuring things out, but I come with a heart full of love and gratitude. My foster mom says I’m an angel and that I deserve to spend the rest of my years just chilling in peace, surrounded by love. If you’re looking for a loyal companion to fill your home with quiet love and gentle joy, I think we might be a perfect match. Adoption FEE: $200 which includes her spay, microchip, and vaccines.

Story
PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING!   Hi everyone… I’m Bambi Lee. I’m a tiny 10-year-old Chihuahua boy looking for a gentle, patient human to help me feel safe again. I’ve been through a lot, so I’m a little skittish, shy, and nervous at first… but once I trust you, I’ll follow you everywhere and be the sweetest, chillest little guy ever. I love being outside and I do best in a calm home with a fenced yard where I can explore at my own pace. Big dogs? Small dogs? I’m cool with both! I don’t know any commands and honestly… I’m not too interested in learning them, but I am working on my potty training and I try my best. I’m just looking for a small family who’s home most of the day and can give me love, kindness, and patience while I learn that the world isn’t so scary. A word from my foster: “He’s been through a lot. I know he’s sweet — he follows me around, just shy and skittish. I think once he feels safe and trusts, he will be the sweetest, chillest companion.” If you think your heart and home are the safe place Bambi Lee’s been waiting for… apply to meet him today. Adoption FEE: $200 which includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccines. It is also a donation to go directly back to us to help us continue to rescue more animals.

Story
PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING!   ADOPT ME — HI, I’M MORT! 1-year-old Chihuahua Mix H-hi… I’m Mort. I’m a tiny little guy with a big heart, but I’ve been through a lot, so I’m still learning how to feel safe. I want to trust people so badly — I just need someone patient who will let me go at my own pace. I’m playful, silly, and I love other dogs, especially small dogs. Having a confident doggy sibling really helps me come out of my shell and learn how to be a “normal dog.” It makes me feel safe and brave. I’m crate trained, potty trained, and I know some basic commands like sit, down, and stay. I’m smart — I just need someone who believes in me. Because I get scared easily, I need a quiet home with no kids and a small, calm family who understands that healing takes time. A fenced yard would make me feel extra safe too. I dream of a home that will be patient, gentle, and willing to work with me. I will need professional training to build confidence, but mostly I need love, space, and understanding. A word from my foster: “Please consider working with him and giving him a chance. He’s a good dog who’s been through trauma. He needs someone patient, willing to help him grow, and ready to give him the time and love he deserves.” Adoption FEE: $450 which includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccines. It is also a donation to go directly back to us to help us continue to rescue more animals.
