Story
Meet this sweet girl! 🐾❤️ She’s an affectionate, snuggly pup who eats well, sleeps well, and loves being close to her people. She can be a little skittish about being picked up or caught by surprise, but she’s gaining confidence and improving every day. Once she feels safe with you, she’s happy to curl up in your lap and soak up the love. She is potty trained, fully vetted, and does well with other dogs. She especially loves having a canine buddy and would really enjoy a home with another friendly, confident dog to help show her the ropes. Because she prefers a calmer, predictable environment, she would do best in a home with older children or no children. She may need a little patience while she learns that she’s safe, but underneath that cautious exterior is a sweet little girl who is ready to bond with her person and become a wonderful companion. ❤️🐶

Story
Meet Nicky, the sweetest senior girl with a heart of gold. This gentle soul is looking for a peaceful place to call her own in her golden years. Nicky is the perfect blend of affectionate and friendly, always ready to greet you with a warm welcome and a loving nudge. Her gentle nature makes her an ideal companion for anyone seeking a calm and loving presence in their life. While she may be a senior, Nicky still has a lot of love to give and receives so much joy from the simple things in life like a cozy spot on the couch, a gentle ear scratch, or a leisurely walk in the sun. She's the perfect mix of active and relaxed, always up for a game or some quality time, but just as content to snuggle up and snooze the day away. Nicky is a true angel, and her new family will be blessed to have her in their lives. Could that family be yours?
