Story
Meet Cara! This adorable little 12-lb girl is loving, affectionate, and playful. Cara’s favorite activities include long walks, hikes, a good game of fetch or tug, and any opportunity to snuggle up next to her people. At night she may even want to sleep on your pillow! And when you come home, she will be right there to great you enthusiastically. She is very food motivated so should be quite trainable if you’d like her to learn obedience skills or tricks. This pint-sized cutie has done wonderfully with children and other pets, including large and small dogs as well as cats. However, she does intensely chase small critters outside, such as squirrels. She plays nicely with the other dog in her current home. With the kitties, she will either ignore them or gently sniff them or offer to play. She would prefer not to share her bed with another pet, but she is very polite about this and has never fought over her bed or anything else,. Cara does alert bark when people come to the home and in some other situations. Though it was becoming a bit excessive, her current family has been working with her on this and have found her amenable to learning new habits. This is likely going to be something her new family will need to continue working on, so if barking bothers you or any of your family members, Cara may not be the best fit for you. The barking also makes her not a good candidate for apartment living. Cara is about 18 months old and is up to date on vaccinations. She had some GI issues that appear to be resolved and intermittently appears to favor her left hind leg. She is thought to be a Chihuahua/Dachshund/Chow mix, but this is purely a guess. She will be spayed prior to adoption. She is mostly housetrained but needs a little help learning to “hold it” all night. She does like to sleep in her crate but would prefer not to be shut into it. For housetraining, we advise using an alternative to a crate, such as an exercise pen (no top, so therefore more open) or a small gated off area in a bedroom with one of her humans. This way she can learn and avoid making mistakes without the trauma of feeling isolated or confined. Cara’s current family took her in when her previous family gave her up. However, they are not able to keep her permanently, so we (FFOCAS) are helping them safely rehome her. Interested? Please get in touch via email (ffocas4pets@gmail.com) or through Adoptapet. We’ll ask you to fill out a rehoming application to keep this process as safe as possible for all involved.

Story
Meet Dahlia! Dahlia is the tiny runt of the Wildflower litter, but this little girl has just as much puppy charm as her bigger siblings. She is the darkest of the puppies and has the cutest little spot of white beneath her chin. And while she may be the smallest, she has one very important thing in common with the rest of the litter: Dahlia loves to be held and cuddled. She is expected to grow to around 20 pounds, although she will always be the little girl of the family. There is just something extra sweet about tucking this tiny puppy into your arms. Dahlia is ready for a forever family who will love her, spoil her, and help her grow into the wonderful dog she is meant to be. Good things really do come in small packages!
