Story
Hi! My name is Mela and I'm a female beagle/chihuahua mix weighing in at 11 pounds.  I'm around 9 years old, and I love to walk, smell the ground, and wag my tail. I love everyone I meet and if you're my person, I would love to snuggle next to you as much as you allow. Otherwise, give me a soft dog bed and I'm happy! My perfect person would be someone home a great deal and loves to have me snuggle next to you! I'm very curious and like to watch everything you do! I get along great with my doggy brothers and sisters and I think I'd get along with cats, if I ever meet one! However, I'd love to be your one and only and get all your attention! I have a few mobility issues, but they mainly keep me from jumping up on things or from just standing for long periods of time. I can handle steps well, can run, and jump down from a couch! My doctor found a mass on my spleen, so I had surgery to have it removed! It was benign, so I'm doing really well! I didn't have a very good dental plan at my last place, so I'm missing quite a few teeth, but I'm still able to eat dry kibble and treats, so all good! I can sleep very nicely in my crate at night, although I wouldn't be sad if you let me stay on your bed! I'm doing really well with my potty training as long as you are paying attention to me! I'd be so grateful to find someone to love me that I will love back a thousand fold.  Is that YOU!? Please come and meet me!  Every PAWS dog is loved, vetted, and ready for a fresh start February 16, 2026, 9:16 am

Story
Meet Juneau.Juneau is estimated to be 8 or 9 months old and is believed to be a Miniature Pinscher/Chihuahua mix. She has her foster mom has ever seen on a nine-pound body. She doesnt just look at you she studies you. Like shes quietly asking, Are you safe? Are you mine?She is the gentle one. The little lady. While her sister Winter is off being the spunky, talk-back-to-the-TV type, Juneau is content to simply be close. Her favorite place in the world is your lap or your chest or tucked against the nape of your neck while you sleep. She has perfected the art of making herself impossibly small in bed, so youll wake up wondering where she tucked herself in only to realize shes been there the whole time, quietly keeping you warm.Juneau isnt needy. She just loves connection. She wants to feel loved, and when she does, she melts. Completely. She gives that affection right back in the softest, sweetest way. She doesnt demand attention she leans into it.She gets along beautifully with other dogs and with cats. Shes calmer than her sister, more reserved, more observant. If Winter is Arya Stark, Juneau is Sansa poised, gentle, and quietly strong in her own way.Shes one of the Blizzard babies abandoned in the freezing snow with her siblings and somehow surviving it all. There is something about her that feels grateful. Tender. Like she knows she was given another chance and she plans to spend it being someones cozy little shadow.Juneau doesnt need the spotlight. She just needs a person. And once she has you, she will make your whole world feel softer.Juneau has being spayed and received her first sets of vaccines. She will be ready to go to her forever home after her second set of vaccines. The adoption fee for Juneau is $350. Apply to meet Juneau at RicoPetRecovery.org

Story
Meet Winter.Winter is believed that be a Miniature Pinscher/Chihuahua mix, clocking in at a mighty nine pounds of pure personality. She is what her foster mom like to call a professional lap companion with strong opinions about television.She watches TV. Not glances at it. Watches it. She will sit in your lap and stare at the screen like shes following the plot. If something exciting happens, she may offer commentary. If something scary happens, she will absolutely decide that we are not doing that and retreat to safety. (This has been tested. Multiple times.)She is wildly affectionate without being chaotic. She plays hard, zooms appropriately, and then transforms into the most perfect little snuggler. At night she curls up in bed and sleeps quietly all the way through, like a tiny warm cinnamon roll who somehow also survived a snowstorm.Winter is one of the Blizzard babies part of a litter of three abandoned outside in the freezing cold. She survived. She thrived. And now shes out here living her best nine-pound Muppet life.Winter gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes and with cats. Shes confident without being bossy, playful without being overwhelming, and just genuinely fun to have around. She loves blueberries, loves a good cuddle, and loves being wherever her people are.If you want a quirky little sidekick who will watch movies with you, talk back to the TV when necessary, and snuggle you like its her full-time job Winter might be your girl.Winter is estimated to be about 8 or 9 months old. She has just been spayed and she received her first set of vaccines. She will be able to go to her forever home after her second set of vaccines. The adoption fee for winter is $350.

Story
Meet TED, a tiny Chi-mix, with the most adorable underbite and spectacular curly Q tail. This baby boy is shy and cautious at first but once in his inner circle, he rewards you with playful pounces and sloppy kisses and will bear his belly with the sweetest, silliest grin (see pic). I dare you not to LOL when he looks at you like that. It doesn't take long for him to declare allegiance to his person and show fondness for pups his size. Heaven is when he slowly melts into your neck for a snuggle knowing he is safe and loved. His energetic puppy side comes into full display once he feels safe in his environment. Important housekeeping notes: he needs slow introductions with people/pups, loves to be snug-as-a-bug in his crate at night (sleeps all night) and when you're away, potty training like a rock star, and thinks leash walking is the bomb. Not sure about big dogs, cats or kids but think he could be tested with older kids, maybe cats. Has shown no aggression or resource guarding and quickly settles into the routine of the household. Let us know if you think this tiny Scooby Doo could be the rescue you never knew you needed.

Story
Lucky is a 2½-year-old Pomsky with plenty of personality packed into his medium frame. He’s playful, smart, and loves being the center of attention. Once he decides you’re his person, he’ll follow you everywhere and soak up every bit of affection you’ll give. He’s fully trained and neutered, but don’t let that fool you—he’s got a streak of independence and will sometimes pretend he doesn’t hear you just to prove a point. Loud noises and thunderstorms make him nervous, so he does best somewhere calm and reassuring when the weather turns. Most days, though, he’s his cheerful, charming self—sweet, curious, and a little too aware of how cute he is.February 10, 2026, 6:18 pm
