Story
Snuggles, this adorable low rider, is quite the dog. She may look sweet and quiet (and usually is) but she is a sneak. She loves to chase cats, but gets over it once they whop her nose. She enjoys taking her brother's toys and snacks, which he seems oblivious to. They will take turns attempting to play catch (when they feel like it) with their toy squirrel. Snugs loves to be held, as well as car rides. She's not quite a lap dog because she has to initiate the love, but she will always be super excited to see her favorite people. She starts off a bit shy and wary but can warm up quickly when she feels safe, loved. Just a caution, her poor back leg joints do hurt her a bit so try not to grab her there. She doesn't become aggressive but you can tell she doesn't like having that area touched.Fill out an adoption application directly on our website at www.lionelslegacy.org

Story
Zeus is a lovely 12yr old dachshund mix with a wonderfully cuddly temperament. He is in a foster home with a cat that took a bit of work to get him comfortable with her and it was worth the effort, because they are now besties.He is doing very well with his potty skills with praise and a treats.He gets along very well with his fosters doge Pepe. They can even share food on a dish. He likes to play with a tennis ball and loves squeaky toys. He loves the park and he does well with the kids there that want to pet or walk him. He LOVES going in the car. He has always slept through the night. He has a wonderful appetite and loves his treats. When walking, he likes meeting other dogs in the complex. He would benefit from a home that has a backyard so he can go out whenever he needs to.Fill out an adoption application directly on our website at www.lionelslegacy.org

Story
Meet Scarlett! A twelve year old, 16 pound dachshund who’s sweet face will steal your heart. This sweet, companionable girl loves being around her people and has a gentle, easygoing personality. She enjoys spending time outdoors, where she will happily amble around the backyard, a little wobbly, taking in the sights and smells at her own leisurely pace. Because she is currently overweight, her activity level is limited, and she is not able to go on long walks just yet. She may do well with short, gentle strolls on a leash as her fitness improves, but for now she prefers relaxed outings. She can be vocal when she is outside and may bark occasionally, especially if she notices something interesting. With a loving family committed to helping her reach a healthier weight, she’ll have every opportunity to thrive and enjoy a more active life. She's having some trouble getting outside in time for potty.Fill out an adoption application directly on our website at www.lionelslegacy.org

Story
Bee is a super sweet 10-year old mix. I originally adopted her from a rescue in Oklahoma when I lived out there. I have a small toddler now and she stresses Bee out. We live in a small apartment and I’m unable to keep them separated without Bee having to be muzzled or kenneled (both of which she hates). She loves to be with people but babies and small children make her nervous. Older kids about 7yo and up, she’s perfect with because she’s so chill and calm. She spends most of the day laying around but loves to go on walks. She’s a little chunky but would love to be a lap dog if you let her. If you’re looking for a sweet, calm, perfectly housebroken old girl who is fine dozing by herself or on your lap all day then you’ve found the perfect new family member for you! (Again, just no small children around please).

Story
Pippa is an energetic girl, shes very playful with kids and dogs of all sizes. She has only one cat in the house and she is curious and seems to want to socialize with the cat, but the cat is a little older and territorial and won't let her close. Pippa is up to date on her vaccines and had a full physical exam at Vetco on October 3rd with no health issues. We can provide a copy of this along with her shot records. Shes 9 weeks old, born on July 28th 2026. She's working on leash and crate training and has a good attitude to learn! She is also adjusting to puppy pads but still has a few accidents here and there.We absolutely adore this little girl but unfortunately have realized our older cat is just not going to adjust to a new puppy. We have made the decision to try to rehome the puppy but only to a loving home. We will send Pippa home with the items we have gotten for her including a medium sized crate she has plenty of room to move around in.

Story
13-year-old Penelope and her 10-year-old bestie Sunny arrived at Animal Friends of the Valleys as strays. Shelter staff had their owners' information and made repeated attempts to reach her by phone and email, but sadly, no one responded. Once their stray hold was over, we told the shelter we would welcome both senior dogs as Frosted Faces. We were heartbroken when Sunny’s condition took a turn before we could get him to safety. He had a very large mass attached to his body that had ruptured, and despite everyone’s efforts, he passed away at the shelter. We are so sad for this sweet senior boy and wish we could have gotten to him sooner. Thankfully, we were able to rescue Penelope, and she is now at FFF. At just 6 pounds, this tiny senior girl has a lot of love and care ahead of her. She needs a much-needed dental surgery, and we’re making sure she gets the medical attention she deserves. After everything she has been through, Penelope is ready for a fresh start where she can be cherished, pampered, and loved for all her remaining years. We’ll share more about this sweet little girl as she settles in, and we get to know her. Stay tuned for updates on Penelope! To meet Penelope, please email: placement@frostedfacesfoundation.org
