Story
Meet Dixon and McGrath! These handsome brothers made a long journey from a partner shelter in California to be here and are currently enjoying a relaxing break in one of our amazing foster homes. These brothers are the best of both worlds. Dixon is the king of cuddling. He will happily curl up in your lap and stay there all day if you let him! He has a gentle soul and prefers napping, but occasionally gets the zoomies like he`s a young pup again! Dixon loves meeting new people and will be best friends immediately with anyone he meets. He is also potty trained, and will go out for walks, but honestly, he`d much rather snuggle than exercise!McGrath is a quiet guy who takes a little longer to warm up to new people. He`s eager to befriend people, he`s just a bit nervous! He prefers to watch from afar for a little bit before truly opening himself up to someone. Unlike his brother, he loves going outside on walks and would love someone to explore with. McGrath is still trying to master potty trained, but we believe he`ll make great progress soon!Both boys are couch potatoes and mostly want a home where they can relax! Due to their close bond, these brothers have to be adopted together. Please fill out an application if you`re interested in meeting them!

Story
Milo is a 4 year old jack/russell chihuahua mix that is a very sweet, loving, and loyal boy. I’ve had him since he was a puppy but unfortunately do not have the time to devote to him that he deserves. He needs someone that is willing to invest the time, training, and energy into him! He is currently in training for his behavior issues (he is a very timid boy around other dogs and people) so we are working on his desensitization skills to help him get over his fears. He can be a little bit “mouthy” at times, but only when he feels frightened or cornered. I’d love for him to go to a home that has a yard and plenty of space for him to run and dig and be the awesome dog that he is. He’s never been around children, but based off his skiddish behaviors, I suggest a home with no children. He is working on his socialization skills with other dogs, but it’s a very new process for him. If you are interested and have any additional questions please reach out!!

Story
Zoodle is living in a foster home. Fill out our quick adoption survey, and then we can set up a phone call or meet and greet with the foster! Zoodle is: Neutered: Yes! Up to date on vaccines: Yes! Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized More about Zoodle: Housebroken: Yes! Crate trained: He has done well with free roam when home alone Leash walking: Zoodle is still building his confidence on leash, and prefers a slow roam and a very loose leash. He’s very treat motivated which will be great to continue to build his confidence! Dog social: He lives with a respectful dog in his foster home and has been doing well overall, but he would be happiest as the only dog in his future home as he can be protective of his personal space. Cat social: He lives with a cat in his foster home and has seemed comfortable with her, but has been kept separated as she is fearful of him. Kid friendly: Due to some handling sensitivities, Zoodle would do best in an adults-only home Zoodle likes: - Perching himself on top of you - Relaxing and napping - His little Lambchop stuffie - Playing fetch Zoodle is a tiny king who is the definition of resilience. He has come such a long way since he was rescued and it’s obvious he has so much love to give someone despite his past. Our favorite thing about him is how much he loves to play fetch; he would do that all day if you let him. Whether he's prancing like a pony, dancing on 2 legs out of excitement, or running and jumping to fetch, he is so athletic! He also loves to give you hugs to let you know he’s happy by climbing onto your chest and snuggling you. He can be sensitive to noises and handling, so will do best in a quiet home/neighborhood and with an adopter who can respect his need for space and consent. Zoodle's adoption fee is $300, and he is ready to cuddle up with his forever person! Next steps: Email adopt@onetail.org with questions, or submit an application online and we'll be in touch to schedule a meeting: https://www.onetail.org/apply-to-adopt/ *** Our adoption application stays on file for one year and can apply to any dog in our program.
