Canelo is a sweet, playful pup of about 7 months. He has spent time with a husky and pit mix and loves them both! He is working really hard on house training and is doing well so far. He has been good with every person he has met including children. He is still a puppy and has a lot of energy. He likes to play and go on walks.

Story
Hi, I’m Tori 🐾💛I’ve had a pretty scary start, but I’m ready to find the gentle, loving home I’ve always deserved.I was trapped in Mississippi after six days of running around terrified with a group of dogs who were just as scared as I was. Life in the rural fields was tough, and I didn’t know who to trust. But thanks to some kind humans, I’m safe now—and learning that the world isn’t as frightening as it once felt.I’m a super sweet girl, but I’ll need someone who understands that I open up slowly. Patience, kindness, and a calm environment will help me blossom 🌼Here’s a little about me: ✨ I’d love a quiet home where I don’t have to worry about loud noises or chaos. ✨ A fenced yard would help me feel safe while I explore and build confidence. ✨ I adore other dogs—especially confident ones who can show me the ropes and remind me that life can be fun, not scary 🐶💕 ✨ I’ll jump up on my humans for love, but being picked up still scares me. I just need time and trust. ✨ I LOVE stuffed animals and carry them around like treasures—it’s honestly adorable 🧸💛 ✨ I’m looking for someone who can give me the extra TLC I missed out on.I may have had a rough beginning, but I’m ready to learn what love truly feels like. With patience and a gentle heart, I promise I’ll become the sweetest, most loyal companion.Please help me find my forever family—the one that will help me feel safe, cherished, and home.

Story
Buddy is the kind of little dog that quietly works his way into your heart. He is about 2 years old, under 20 pounds, and appears to be a Chihuahua/JRT mix. Buddy used to live in a real home with his owner until his owner went to prison and he ended up dumped at a small rural shelter. It is very obvious that Buddy misses being someone’s little companion. Despite all the instability in his life, Buddy has remained an incredibly sweet and affectionate little dog. He can be shy at first, but once he settles in, he becomes very loving and attached to his people. One thing to know about Buddy is that he is sensitive to yelling, harsh energy, or movements that make him think he may be in trouble. The animal control officer suspects that the family member caring for him after his owner went to prison may have been rough with him, so now he sometimes flinches or briefly worries when someone moves toward him quickly or in a way that feels confrontational, even if they are not interacting with him directly. Outside of that, Buddy is not a nervous or unstable dog at all. He enjoys affection, likes being part of the household, and settles in nicely once he realizes he is safe. Buddy is great with other dogs and cats, even kittens. One thing that stands out about him is how balanced he is socially. He is not one of those little dogs that constantly tries to dominate bigger dogs, but he is also not fearful around them. He simply coexists peacefully and confidently. Buddy would do best in a calmer home where he can fully relax back into normal life and remember what it feels like to simply be loved and safe again. Good fit: someone patient and gentle looking for a small companion dog that wants stability, kindness, and real connection. Adoption process: All adoptions are completed prior to transport. Dogs are picked up at designated transport locations. If an adoption doesn’t work out (rare, but life happens), we always take our dogs back. Location: Oklahoma (available to approved out-of-state adopters via transport) Health: Fully vetted (spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested) Adoption fee: $500 (includes transport + vetting) Transport routes: WA, OR, ID, MT, UT, WY, CO, MN, WI, IA, IL, IN, OH, PA, MD, NY, NJ, VT Think you might be a good fit?
