Story
Some puppies are cute... and then there's Bullseye Tootsie. This little girl somehow manages to make every day feel like an adventure. Whether she's proudly carrying around a toy, bouncing from one game to the next, or making new friends wherever she goes, Bullseye has a way of turning ordinary moments into something that makes you smile. She's playful, sweet, full of personality, and has never met a stranger she didn't want to be friends with. Watch Bullseye and her siblings in action: https://youtu.be/2VdmkUut99Q?si=EX9FEi5K18wgoKHJ At approximately 4 months old and currently 10 pounds, Bullseye is our best guess at a Chihuahua/Miniature Pinscher mix, but with animal rescue, it's always a mystery! Whatever breeds came together to create this adorable little girl, they gave her a fun-loving personality, a smart little mind, and enough charm to win over just about everyone she meets. If Bullseye had a motto, it would probably be, "The more the merrier!" Her foster's favorite thing about her is just how friendly and social she is. She loves people, enjoys making new friends, and approaches life with the kind of happy confidence that's contagious. She's playful without being over the top and always seems ready for whatever adventure comes next, whether that's chasing after toys, exploring the yard, or simply following her people around to see what they're up to. Of course, every social butterfly needs a little downtime too. Once Bullseye has gotten her puppy energy out, she's more than happy to curl up beside you for some quality cuddle time. She's affectionate, loves being close to her people, and is the perfect combination of playful companion and snuggly couch buddy. Treats and toys are easily the way to Bullseye's heart. She absolutely loves both, making playtime one of her favorite parts of the day. She's also a smart little girl who's eager to learn, and we think she's going to be a lot of fun for her future family to continue training as she grows. Like any young puppy, Bullseye is still learning the ropes. She's doing well with crate training and settles nicely in her kennel when needed. Potty training is also coming along, but she's still practicing and will need a family that's committed to providing the routine, patience, and consistency every puppy needs to succeed. Like all puppies, Bullseye will need continued training, socialization, and guidance as she grows into adulthood. The time you invest in her now will pay off for years to come, and with her friendly personality and eagerness to be part of the fun, we think she's going to make one incredible companion. If you're looking for a puppy who's equal parts playful best friend, social butterfly, cuddle bug, and adventure buddy, Bullseye is ready to fill your home with laughter, puppy kisses, and a lifetime of happy memories.

Story
If there was ever a puppy who could convince you that life is simply better when you're wearing a cute outfit, carrying around a toy, and ending the day snuggled up on the couch, it's Dolly Hazel. This little fashionista is almost always sporting an adorable outfit, proudly showing off her signature ears that stand straight up until she starts running, when they bounce and flop with every step. Between her sweet personality, love for cuddles, and undeniable cuteness, Dolly has mastered the art of stealing hearts without even trying. Watch her video and fall in love: https://youtu.be/2VdmkUut99Q?si=EX9FEi5K18wgoKHJ At approximately 4 months old and currently 15 pounds, Dolly is our best guess at a Chihuahua/Jack Russell Terrier mix, but with animal rescue, it's always a mystery! Whatever breeds came together to create this adorable little girl, they gave her the cutest ears, an affectionate personality, and just the right amount of playful puppy energy. Dolly has fully embraced everything there is to love about being a puppy. She bounces from toy to toy with endless enthusiasm, happily entertaining herself before inviting everyone else to join in the fun. Whether she's carrying around her favorite toy, exploring the backyard, or making up her own little games, she's always finding a way to keep herself entertained. She's friendly, social, and loves being part of whatever is going on around her. As much as Dolly loves to play, her foster will tell you her favorite thing about her is how incredibly cuddly she is. Once she's gotten all those puppy wiggles out, she's more than happy to curl up beside you while you watch TV, snuggle into your lap, or simply be as close to her people as possible. She's the kind of puppy who makes it very easy to lose track of time because once she settles in for cuddles, you'll never want to move. Dolly is growing up surrounded by dogs, cats, children, and people of all ages, giving her an incredible start to life. She's learning how to interact with everyone around her and is developing into a confident, well-socialized puppy who's excited to make new friends wherever she goes. Like any young puppy, Dolly is still learning all about the world around her. She's doing well with crate training and settles nicely in her kennel when it's time. Potty training is also coming along well, though she's still practicing and will need a family committed to continuing her routine with patience, consistency, and lots of encouragement. Treats and toys are definitely the way to Dolly's heart. She's always excited when it's time to play, and she's more than happy to accept a tasty reward along the way. Between her eagerness to interact with her people and her playful personality, we think she'll be a fun puppy to continue training as she grows. Like all puppies, Dolly will need a family committed to continuing her training, socialization, and helping her learn all the important puppy life skills. The time you invest in her now will help shape her into the incredible adult dog she's already well on her way to becoming. If you're looking for a puppy who's equal parts cuddle bug, playful sidekick, and tiny fashion icon, Dolly Hazel Toy Story is ready to fill your home with laughter, puppy kisses, adorable outfits, and enough snuggles to last a lifetime. https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/6a20796127a1aa1ef808bae5 Questions?

Story
Finch Fleetfoot may only weigh 11 pounds, but this tiny boy has enough sweetness and personality packed into his little body to make everyone around him smile. With the long, delicate legs of a miniature Greyhound, the most precious floppy Chihuahua ears, and a happy little prance that makes him look like a baby deer, he is almost too cute to be real. The best part is that he is every bit as loving as he is adorable. Once this little angel decides you are his person, prepare to have a permanent shadow, lap warmer, and tiny best friend following you everywhere you go. Watch his video and fall in love with those floppy ears and baby deer zoomies: https://youtu.be/HqRXGh5ou4U?si=-5bL7SI9FFRXJpNb Finch is approximately 4 months old and currently weighs around 11 pounds. We believe he may be a Chihuahua and Italian Greyhound mix, but with animal rescue, breed and age are always a mystery and our best guesses. Whatever combination created those long little legs, floppy ears, and precious face, his DNA is clearly the perfect mixture of all the right things. Finch absolutely adores his people. He may take a minute to warm up to someone new, but once he decides he loves you, there is no getting him off of you. He wants to curl up in your lap, walk directly behind you like a tiny shadow, and remain as close to you as physically possible. If you have ever dreamed of having a small dog who would happily climb right into your skin if given the opportunity, Finch is your guy. He is such a dear little soul and has so much love to give the people who earn his trust. Finch is dog friendly and has spent time around dogs with a wide variety of sizes, energy levels, and personalities. Because he is such a little guy, larger dogs can sometimes feel a bit spooky to him at first. If a big, energetic dog immediately rushes over and wants to become best friends, Finch may offer a quick correction to let them know he needs a little more time and personal space. Once he realizes they are safe, he relaxes and will happily romp around with the bigger dogs. However, he is not necessarily searching for a large, rambunctious playmate. Finch appears most comfortable around dogs closer to his own size, which is completely understandable when nearly everyone else looks like a giant from his perspective. Finch also met our house cat, Biggie, and handled the introduction wonderfully. He was calm and respectful, did not attempt to chase him, and was not bothered by Biggie jumping around or doing normal cat things. Biggie felt comfortable around Finch as well. We do not know whether Finch has ever lived with a cat before, and this was our first time seeing him interact with one. If you have a cat in your home, we can arrange for Finch to have a sleepover with a cat upon request. Just let us know! This smart little guy is crate trained and generally comfortable relaxing in his crate. He is also working on his potty training, and from what we have seen so far, he is beginning to understand where the appropriate potty places are. He loves treats, is eager to please, and already knows how to sit. Finch naturally likes to pop up on his back legs and show off, so we think he would be an adorable little student for tricks like “sit pretty” or “dance.” With a few treats and plenty of praise, this boy will be ready to impress everyone he meets. One of the cutest things about Finch is watching him get the zoomies. With those extra-long legs and tiny body, he looks like a baby deer frolicking around as he happily zips from one side of the room to the other. Thankfully, his zoomies come in miniature bursts. He is generally quiet, is not bouncing off the walls with energy, and settles beautifully when it is time to curl up beside his people. Finch could thrive in an apartment or a home with a backyard. He does not need a huge amount of space or constant entertainment to be happy. He simply wants a safe home, plenty of love, and people who will let him stay close. Whether he is trotting behind you on those tiny stilts, curling up in your lap, or showing off his hilarious baby deer zoomies, Finch has the kind of personality that will keep you smiling every single day. This sweet little angel is ready to become someone’s most devoted companion, and once he loves you, he will love you with absolutely everything he has. We are willing to test Finch Flatfoot with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

Story
Lulu LaRue may be tiny, but she has enough confidence and personality to fill an entire room. She adores people, happily introduces herself to everyone and carries herself like a girl who knows she is absolutely adorable. If Lulu were a person, she would definitely make the first move and ask you out on a date. Go watch Lulu LaRue on YouTube to see her adorable sit-and-beg routine, happy little dance and the tiny halo marking that has us convinced she may actually be an angel. https://youtu.be/RISAAg0gpZY Lulu is estimated to be about 11 months old and may be a Chihuahua/Rat Terrier mix, though breed and age are always our best guess with rescue dogs. She has the cutest little circle on her forehead that looks like the shadow of a halo, which feels very fitting for such a special girl. She is confident, spunky and incredibly loving. Lulu enjoys being picked up and carried, happily soaks up attention and has no trouble making herself comfortable with new people. She loves treats, takes them with a wonderfully soft mouth and will happily show off her little sit-and-beg pose or dance for a snack. Lulu is also wonderful with other dogs. She has met both large and small dogs and greeted everyone with easy confidence. She especially enjoyed playing with one of our assessment dogs and followed him around like they had been friends for years. Lulu could happily live with another playful dog, but she is secure enough that she does not need a canine companion to feel complete. She met our house cat, Biggie, and was mostly uninterested in him. She simply ignored him and went about her business, so she may be able to live with a calm, dog-savvy cat after thoughtful introductions. Lulu has a nice, medium energy level, walks nicely on leash and settles comfortably in new environments. She is not particularly barky, handles stress well and recovers quickly when something surprises her. She also walks into a kennel easily and was perfectly content surrounded by new friends and attention the first time we met her. Lulu LaRue is a tiny angel with a confident heart, a loving personality and the perfect amount of sparkle and pizazz! She could be happy as a solo dog soaking up all your attention or as part of a home with other dogs. Either way, she is ready to make the first move—all you have to do is apply.

Story
Monsieur Mozzarella Bunke may have a very fancy name, but this sweet 10-year-old Chihuahua has a pretty simple wish for his forever home: he just wants to be with his people. Monsieur Mozzarella is a loving little senior who finds his happiest place wherever his humans happen to be. He enjoys companionship and doesn’t want to miss out on what everyone is doing. If you leave him behind in a room by himself, he’ll happily remind you that you seem to have forgotten someone! He may bark when left alone, so he would love a home where he can spend plenty of time in the company of his favorite people. When Monsieur Mozzarella first arrives somewhere new, he may need a little time to figure things out. He likes to get the lay of the land, observe his surroundings, and make sure everything feels safe. Give him that opportunity, and you’ll begin to see him loosen up as he becomes more comfortable and realizes he’s in good hands. He currently lives in a foster home with other foster dogs and is accustomed to sharing his space with canine roommates. While he can coexist with other dogs, it’s really his humans that Monsieur Mozzarella wants to keep close. Another big bonus? Monsieur Mozzarella is house trained! This distinguished little gentleman already understands one of the most important parts of living in a home. At 8 years old, he has reached that wonderful stage of life where companionship means everything. He isn’t looking for a complicated life or a packed social calendar. He wants security, affection, familiar surroundings, and someone nearby to keep him company. Monsieur Mozzarella Bunke would be a wonderful match for someone looking for a sweet senior companion who enjoys having a little shadow following along through everyday life. Give him some time to settle in, show him that he’s safe, and this charming little gentleman will be happy to make himself part of your world. If your idea of the perfect dog is a house-trained, loyal little Chihuahua who simply wants to be included and loved, Monsieur Mozzarella Bunke may be exactly who you’ve been looking for. Questions?

Story
Some puppies are cute... and then there's Bullseye Tootsie. This little girl somehow manages to make every day feel like an adventure. Whether she's proudly carrying around a toy, bouncing from one game to the next, or making new friends wherever she goes, Bullseye has a way of turning ordinary moments into something that makes you smile. She's playful, sweet, full of personality, and has never met a stranger she didn't want to be friends with. Watch Bullseye and her siblings in action: https://youtu.be/2VdmkUut99Q?si=EX9FEi5K18wgoKHJ At approximately 4 months old and currently 10 pounds, Bullseye is our best guess at a Chihuahua/Miniature Pinscher mix, but with animal rescue, it's always a mystery! Whatever breeds came together to create this adorable little girl, they gave her a fun-loving personality, a smart little mind, and enough charm to win over just about everyone she meets. If Bullseye had a motto, it would probably be, "The more the merrier!" Her foster's favorite thing about her is just how friendly and social she is. She loves people, enjoys making new friends, and approaches life with the kind of happy confidence that's contagious. She's playful without being over the top and always seems ready for whatever adventure comes next, whether that's chasing after toys, exploring the yard, or simply following her people around to see what they're up to. Of course, every social butterfly needs a little downtime too. Once Bullseye has gotten her puppy energy out, she's more than happy to curl up beside you for some quality cuddle time. She's affectionate, loves being close to her people, and is the perfect combination of playful companion and snuggly couch buddy. Treats and toys are easily the way to Bullseye's heart. She absolutely loves both, making playtime one of her favorite parts of the day. She's also a smart little girl who's eager to learn, and we think she's going to be a lot of fun for her future family to continue training as she grows. Like any young puppy, Bullseye is still learning the ropes. She's doing well with crate training and settles nicely in her kennel when needed. Potty training is also coming along, but she's still practicing and will need a family that's committed to providing the routine, patience, and consistency every puppy needs to succeed. Like all puppies, Bullseye will need continued training, socialization, and guidance as she grows into adulthood. The time you invest in her now will pay off for years to come, and with her friendly personality and eagerness to be part of the fun, we think she's going to make one incredible companion. If you're looking for a puppy who's equal parts playful best friend, social butterfly, cuddle bug, and adventure buddy, Bullseye is ready to fill your home with laughter, puppy kisses, and a lifetime of happy memories.

Story
If there was ever a puppy who could convince you that life is simply better when you're wearing a cute outfit, carrying around a toy, and ending the day snuggled up on the couch, it's Dolly Hazel. This little fashionista is almost always sporting an adorable outfit, proudly showing off her signature ears that stand straight up until she starts running, when they bounce and flop with every step. Between her sweet personality, love for cuddles, and undeniable cuteness, Dolly has mastered the art of stealing hearts without even trying. Watch her video and fall in love: https://youtu.be/2VdmkUut99Q?si=EX9FEi5K18wgoKHJ At approximately 4 months old and currently 15 pounds, Dolly is our best guess at a Chihuahua/Jack Russell Terrier mix, but with animal rescue, it's always a mystery! Whatever breeds came together to create this adorable little girl, they gave her the cutest ears, an affectionate personality, and just the right amount of playful puppy energy. Dolly has fully embraced everything there is to love about being a puppy. She bounces from toy to toy with endless enthusiasm, happily entertaining herself before inviting everyone else to join in the fun. Whether she's carrying around her favorite toy, exploring the backyard, or making up her own little games, she's always finding a way to keep herself entertained. She's friendly, social, and loves being part of whatever is going on around her. As much as Dolly loves to play, her foster will tell you her favorite thing about her is how incredibly cuddly she is. Once she's gotten all those puppy wiggles out, she's more than happy to curl up beside you while you watch TV, snuggle into your lap, or simply be as close to her people as possible. She's the kind of puppy who makes it very easy to lose track of time because once she settles in for cuddles, you'll never want to move. Dolly is growing up surrounded by dogs, cats, children, and people of all ages, giving her an incredible start to life. She's learning how to interact with everyone around her and is developing into a confident, well-socialized puppy who's excited to make new friends wherever she goes. Like any young puppy, Dolly is still learning all about the world around her. She's doing well with crate training and settles nicely in her kennel when it's time. Potty training is also coming along well, though she's still practicing and will need a family committed to continuing her routine with patience, consistency, and lots of encouragement. Treats and toys are definitely the way to Dolly's heart. She's always excited when it's time to play, and she's more than happy to accept a tasty reward along the way. Between her eagerness to interact with her people and her playful personality, we think she'll be a fun puppy to continue training as she grows. Like all puppies, Dolly will need a family committed to continuing her training, socialization, and helping her learn all the important puppy life skills. The time you invest in her now will help shape her into the incredible adult dog she's already well on her way to becoming. If you're looking for a puppy who's equal parts cuddle bug, playful sidekick, and tiny fashion icon, Dolly Hazel Toy Story is ready to fill your home with laughter, puppy kisses, adorable outfits, and enough snuggles to last a lifetime. https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/6a20796127a1aa1ef808bae5 Questions?

Story
Finch Fleetfoot may only weigh 11 pounds, but this tiny boy has enough sweetness and personality packed into his little body to make everyone around him smile. With the long, delicate legs of a miniature Greyhound, the most precious floppy Chihuahua ears, and a happy little prance that makes him look like a baby deer, he is almost too cute to be real. The best part is that he is every bit as loving as he is adorable. Once this little angel decides you are his person, prepare to have a permanent shadow, lap warmer, and tiny best friend following you everywhere you go. Watch his video and fall in love with those floppy ears and baby deer zoomies: https://youtu.be/HqRXGh5ou4U?si=-5bL7SI9FFRXJpNb Finch is approximately 4 months old and currently weighs around 11 pounds. We believe he may be a Chihuahua and Italian Greyhound mix, but with animal rescue, breed and age are always a mystery and our best guesses. Whatever combination created those long little legs, floppy ears, and precious face, his DNA is clearly the perfect mixture of all the right things. Finch absolutely adores his people. He may take a minute to warm up to someone new, but once he decides he loves you, there is no getting him off of you. He wants to curl up in your lap, walk directly behind you like a tiny shadow, and remain as close to you as physically possible. If you have ever dreamed of having a small dog who would happily climb right into your skin if given the opportunity, Finch is your guy. He is such a dear little soul and has so much love to give the people who earn his trust. Finch is dog friendly and has spent time around dogs with a wide variety of sizes, energy levels, and personalities. Because he is such a little guy, larger dogs can sometimes feel a bit spooky to him at first. If a big, energetic dog immediately rushes over and wants to become best friends, Finch may offer a quick correction to let them know he needs a little more time and personal space. Once he realizes they are safe, he relaxes and will happily romp around with the bigger dogs. However, he is not necessarily searching for a large, rambunctious playmate. Finch appears most comfortable around dogs closer to his own size, which is completely understandable when nearly everyone else looks like a giant from his perspective. Finch also met our house cat, Biggie, and handled the introduction wonderfully. He was calm and respectful, did not attempt to chase him, and was not bothered by Biggie jumping around or doing normal cat things. Biggie felt comfortable around Finch as well. We do not know whether Finch has ever lived with a cat before, and this was our first time seeing him interact with one. If you have a cat in your home, we can arrange for Finch to have a sleepover with a cat upon request. Just let us know! This smart little guy is crate trained and generally comfortable relaxing in his crate. He is also working on his potty training, and from what we have seen so far, he is beginning to understand where the appropriate potty places are. He loves treats, is eager to please, and already knows how to sit. Finch naturally likes to pop up on his back legs and show off, so we think he would be an adorable little student for tricks like “sit pretty” or “dance.” With a few treats and plenty of praise, this boy will be ready to impress everyone he meets. One of the cutest things about Finch is watching him get the zoomies. With those extra-long legs and tiny body, he looks like a baby deer frolicking around as he happily zips from one side of the room to the other. Thankfully, his zoomies come in miniature bursts. He is generally quiet, is not bouncing off the walls with energy, and settles beautifully when it is time to curl up beside his people. Finch could thrive in an apartment or a home with a backyard. He does not need a huge amount of space or constant entertainment to be happy. He simply wants a safe home, plenty of love, and people who will let him stay close. Whether he is trotting behind you on those tiny stilts, curling up in your lap, or showing off his hilarious baby deer zoomies, Finch has the kind of personality that will keep you smiling every single day. This sweet little angel is ready to become someone’s most devoted companion, and once he loves you, he will love you with absolutely everything he has. We are willing to test Finch Flatfoot with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

Story
Lulu LaRue may be tiny, but she has enough confidence and personality to fill an entire room. She adores people, happily introduces herself to everyone and carries herself like a girl who knows she is absolutely adorable. If Lulu were a person, she would definitely make the first move and ask you out on a date. Go watch Lulu LaRue on YouTube to see her adorable sit-and-beg routine, happy little dance and the tiny halo marking that has us convinced she may actually be an angel. https://youtu.be/RISAAg0gpZY Lulu is estimated to be about 11 months old and may be a Chihuahua/Rat Terrier mix, though breed and age are always our best guess with rescue dogs. She has the cutest little circle on her forehead that looks like the shadow of a halo, which feels very fitting for such a special girl. She is confident, spunky and incredibly loving. Lulu enjoys being picked up and carried, happily soaks up attention and has no trouble making herself comfortable with new people. She loves treats, takes them with a wonderfully soft mouth and will happily show off her little sit-and-beg pose or dance for a snack. Lulu is also wonderful with other dogs. She has met both large and small dogs and greeted everyone with easy confidence. She especially enjoyed playing with one of our assessment dogs and followed him around like they had been friends for years. Lulu could happily live with another playful dog, but she is secure enough that she does not need a canine companion to feel complete. She met our house cat, Biggie, and was mostly uninterested in him. She simply ignored him and went about her business, so she may be able to live with a calm, dog-savvy cat after thoughtful introductions. Lulu has a nice, medium energy level, walks nicely on leash and settles comfortably in new environments. She is not particularly barky, handles stress well and recovers quickly when something surprises her. She also walks into a kennel easily and was perfectly content surrounded by new friends and attention the first time we met her. Lulu LaRue is a tiny angel with a confident heart, a loving personality and the perfect amount of sparkle and pizazz! She could be happy as a solo dog soaking up all your attention or as part of a home with other dogs. Either way, she is ready to make the first move—all you have to do is apply.

Story
Meet Sassy May, a 2-year-old, 15-pound Chihuahua who has one small problem with her name: she’s really not very sassy at all. In reality, Sassy May is a sweet, quiet little lady with a gentle demeanor and an adorable face made even better by her cute little underbite and fluffy tail. When Sassy first finds herself in a new situation, she can be a little timid. She likes having some time to observe, figure things out, and make sure everything feels safe before completely letting her guard down. Give her patience and kindness, and you’ll start seeing the sweet girl hiding underneath that initial shyness. Once she’s comfortable, Sassy enjoys having fun with her buddies and has a playful side that comes out around her friends. She has that wonderful balance of being able to enjoy some playtime without needing to be the loudest or busiest dog in the room. Sassy also walks beautifully on a leash, making leisurely walks together a great way to spend some quality time with this little girl. At only 15 pounds, she’s a perfectly portable companion—but Sassy isn’t looking for someone to simply carry her around. She deserves a family who will help her experience everything that life has to offer: walks and adventures, cozy places to nap, playtime with friends, plenty of affection, and the security of knowing she finally has a home of her own. Her future family will need to understand that Sassy may not immediately walk into a new environment acting like she owns the place. Let her settle in at her own pace. Once she realizes she’s safe, you’ll get the opportunity to watch her confidence grow and her personality begin to shine. Sassy May may have the name of a little diva, but underneath that fluffy tail and adorable underbite is simply a gentle, sweet girl looking for someone who will give her the very best that life has to offer. And after everything is said and done, maybe there is one thing she can afford to be sassy about: Knowing exactly how she deserves to be treated.

Story
Everly Buttercup Kiss seeks audience members to ooo and ahhh over her adorable tricks and cute antics. Estimated to be around 5 years old, this spectacular little black fluff ball appears to be a Pomeranian and German Spitz mix, though with rescue dogs that's simply our best educated guess. She may look like an elegant puff of fur from across the room, but don't let the glamorous coat fool you. Everly is equal parts circus performer, professional smooch distributor, road trip companion, and champion cuddle bug, all bundled into one wonderfully well-rounded little dog. Go watch Everly on YouTube, then come right back to read more. You'll see her happy little tricks, her confident personality, and perhaps most importantly, the enthusiasm she brings to absolutely everything. https://youtu.be/uMovnDhTPCs Everly has the kind of personality that makes living with a dog feel delightfully interactive. Ask for a trick and she's ready to perform. Sit? Easy. Shake? Of course. Spin? Happily. Down? She's got that covered too. She's food motivated, eager to be involved, and clearly enjoys learning just as much as she enjoys earning the treat at the end. Every day comes with its own tiny performance, and she's more than happy to be the star of the show. When she's not showing off her repertoire, she's busy making sure everyone receives an appropriate number of kisses. Everly is wonderfully affectionate without being overwhelming. She genuinely enjoys being close to her people, happily snuggling beside you after an adventure or curling up in bed at night, which is admittedly her preferred sleeping arrangement. She'll tolerate a crate when needed during the day, but if given the choice, she'd much rather consider herself an official member of the cozy-spaces committee. For all her playful personality, Everly is remarkably easy to live with. She's house trained, rides beautifully in the car, walks confidently on leash, and settles into new places with the kind of confidence that makes taking her almost anywhere feel effortless. She especially enjoys riding up front where she can supervise the journey, keep you company between destinations, and deliver her signature smooches every few miles. She also has excellent social skills. Everly enjoys other dogs and is happy sharing her world with them, though she isn't particularly interested in turning every interaction into a play session. She prefers friendly coexistence over constant play, making her an easy addition to homes with other respectful dogs. She hasn't had the opportunity to meet cats yet, but based on the gentle, easygoing nature we've seen from her, we suspect she'd likely approach a feline housemate with the same polite curiosity she shows everyone else, but any introductions should still be thoughtful and gradual. Although she isn't currently living with young children, she's been wonderful around pre-teens, and from everything we've seen, we believe she'd likely make a lovely companion for a family with kind, respectful kids. The only thing Everly isn't especially suited for is apartment living. She can be a vocal little commentator from time to time, and while we happen to think she has plenty of worthwhile opinions, shared walls may not appreciate hearing all of them. Some dogs specialize in one thing. Everly somehow manages to be a little bit of everything. She's clever enough to keep teaching, affectionate enough to keep cuddling, confident enough to tag along almost anywhere, and easy enough to fit beautifully into everyday life. If you've been hoping for a dog with personality, polish, and just the right amount of theatrical flair, Everly is already warming up for her encore. Ready to welcome Everly home?
