Story
Introducing Lucy! 🐾😍 Lucy is a breathtaking 2-year-old Cocker Spaniel with an absolutely unforgettable look. Her striking blue eyes sparkle with curiosity and sweetness, perfectly complemented by her rare, beautifully blended coloring. Her coat is unbelievably soft and plush, the kind you can’t stop touching and that feels tailor-made for long snuggle sessions and cozy naps. Lucy’s personality matches her beauty. She greets everyone she meets with gentle kisses and a warm, affectionate spirit. She has a fun, playful side and enjoys being active, but she’s not hyper—she knows exactly when it’s time to settle in and cuddle close. She loves being held, thrives on affection, and will happily soak up all the love you have to give. She is exceptionally gentle with children and does wonderfully with them. When meeting other dogs, Lucy can be a little unsure at first and may bark, so she needs calm, patient introductions to help her feel comfortable. She is spayed and up to date on vaccinations. Lucy is the total package—soft, sweet, stunning, and ready to be someone’s cherished best friend. If you’re looking for a dog who will steal your heart and your couch, Lucy is waiting. 💗

Story
Introducing Buster 🐾🤍 Buster is a 12-week-old Lab mix with the sweetest, softest expression and the kind of face that makes you want to pull him close and never let go. His warm tan coat, adorable dark muzzle, and gentle puppy eyes give him a permanently cuddly look—like he was made to be held. One glance at him and you can already tell he’s a snuggler at heart. True to his personality, Buster is a total cuddle bug. He’s gentle, relatively calm for a puppy, and happiest when he’s curled up in your lap soaking up affection. While he does enjoy playtime, he always wants his cuddles first—snuggling is absolutely his favorite thing, and he’ll happily choose it over toys or even food. Fostered on a farm, Buster does wonderfully with everyone he meets, including kids, cats, other dogs, goats, and everything in between. He’s easygoing, loving, and fits right in wherever he goes. Buster is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to find a forever home that will appreciate his sweet nature and endless desire to snuggle. 🐶💛

Meet Nando! 🐾😍 Nando is a 4 month old Jack Russell Terrier mix expected to stay on the smaller side, around 25–30 lbs full grown. He’s the perfect mix of sweet, funny, and cuddly, with a playful personality that will keep you smiling. Nando recently had a minor eye procedure, so you may notice a little swelling as he continues to heal, but he’s doing great and doesn’t let it slow him down. Nando is both crate trained and house trained, making him an easy addition to a home. He does wonderful with kids, cats, and other dogs, and has a well-rounded, friendly personality that fits in just about anywhere. He loves to be close to his people and is always happy to snuggle up after some playtime. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to find a forever family to call his own ❤️

Meet Mickey 🐾 Mickey is a 5 month old Boxer/Lab mix with such a soft, gentle nature. He can be a little shy at first, but he warms up quickly and turns into the sweetest, most loving little companion.

Meet Todd 🐾😍 Todd is a 5-month-old Border Collie mix with the sweetest personality and a fun, playful spirit. He’s expected to stay on the smaller side, around 40 lbs full grown, making him a great medium-sized companion. This smart boy is quick to learn and loves to make his people smile with his goofy, funny personality. He can be a little shy when first meeting new people, but once he warms up, he’s incredibly affectionate and loyal. Todd is doing wonderfully with house training and crate training, and he’s already showing how eager he is to learn. He does great with kids and other dogs, but will need a feline-free home as he may chase cats. Todd is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to find his forever home 💕
