Story
Meet Dexter — a 4-year-old, 8lb sweetie with a huge heart in a tiny body. His start in life was heartbreaking — living in a makeshift pen on dirt with only a tarp for a roof. It was so sad, rough and unfair, but his spirit never broke. Dexter cntd: Dexter is spunky, playful, and full of attitude with a personality that fills the room. He plays well with other dogs and loves toys, and attention. He’s the kind of pup who thinks he’s much bigger than he is. Dexter is fully vetted and neutered. He is not yet fully potty trained but is making progress. Potty wraps work great for him right now while he continues learning house rules. Dexter: This little cuddle enthusiast truly deserves a warm lap, soft bed, and a forever family who will spoil him the way he should have been from the start. Dexter is currently in Puerto Rico but can sent anywhere for his forever home.

Story
Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VTGood with dogs: Yes, with proper introductionsGood with cats: UnknownGood with kids: Older kids only (13+)Crate trained: YesHouse trained: YesHave you met Daisy? Don’t let her tiny stature fool you. This pint-sized powerhouse is an active, adventure-loving pup who’s always ready to tag along for fun. Daisy’s idea of a perfect day includes a car ride to the beach, splashing and romping through the water, playing a rousing game of fetch, and finishing it all off with a well-earned pupsicle. Whether her people work from home, head into the office, or work hybrid, Daisy is impressively adaptable and just happy to be part of the routine.Daisy is both house trained and crate trained, and she does great even on full office days as long as she gets her extra outdoor time for walks or backyard play. In the evenings, she transforms into a master nest builder. Oversized fuzzy blankets are her specialty, and once she’s cocooned, you may catch her gently suckling and kneading as she drifts off to sleep.Daisy has lived with other dogs and would do best with a calm, gentle canine companion, especially with slow and thoughtful introductions. While she hasn’t lived with cats, she shows little to no interest in them on neighborhood walks. Daisy would thrive in an adult home or one with older, dog-savvy kids (13+).Daisy is bursting with charm and character. From her signature chihuahua squint side-eye, to the way she locks onto her ball with laser focus, to her precious grin, she brightens her people’s lives daily. Daisy is making steady progress with leash walking especially given a consistent routine. Daisy is looking for a family that can continue helping her build confidence and feel secure in her world.Full of spunk, sweetness, and affection, Daisy is ready to bring joy, laughter, and a whole lot of heart into her future family’s life.
