Story

Molly is a very loving 8 year old dachshund/chihuahua/terrier mix. She enjoys relaxing at home in the sun or going for long hikes. She is somewhat quirky and is sometimes hesitant about new people, but loves them once she gets to know them. She is very food motivated and knows a few fun tricks such as whisper, crawl, and fist bumping! Molly has a lot of energy for an older dog, but is content lounging in the sun for long periods of time or relaxing on a porch. She is a capable hiker and enjoys long walks. Molly is house trained and is left uncrated at home when alone without issue. She is a bit of an anxious dog and is prone to shaking when nervous. She does not like thunder or fireworks. She does take a daily dose of medication to help her anxiety. That medication plus training has helped her become less reactive. Besides her anxiety, she has not other health conditions. We're looking to rehome her as Molly is not a fan of our new baby and it's causing us and her too much stress.

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Handsome Simba (II) is 4 years old, Neutered, Up to Date on Core Vaccines and Microchipped. He is loyal, expressive and forms a strong bond with his people. He enjoys, short walks, fetch, squeaky toys and snuggles. Simba is looking for a calm, adult-only home where he can relax and feel secure, and his confidence can grow at his own pace. With patience, understanding Simba will soon become one of the best dogs you have ever had the pleasure to share your home and heart. A companion pup is ideal to help him build confidence, but not a deal breaker. He is being fostered with other pups and thriving. No children or cats and he is somewhat vocal so probably not a great match for apartment living.

Story

Linus is a sweet, cuddly dachshund born in 2018 who absolutely loves being close to his people. His favorite things include going for walks, soaking up the sun, snuggling on the couch, and burrowing under cozy blankets. He’s also a loyal little protector who likes to keep an eye on the house and let you know when someone’s nearby. As much as we love him, our growing family (with a toddler and another baby on the way) has made it difficult to give Linus the environment he truly needs. He can feel anxious around a busy toddler, and we don’t feel it’s fair for him to spend so much time separated from the family. We are looking for a loving home where Linus can feel safe, relaxed, and get all the cuddles and attention he deserves — ideally a calmer environment without young children and other dogs. This is not an easy decision for us, and we want to make sure Linus finds the perfect match. If you or someone you know could give him a wonderful home, please reach out ❤️
