Story
I have two older/elderly Boston terriers that are needing to be rehomed due to a divorce and not able to have them in my current situation that I am. They are currently staying with a coworker who has asked that they be rehomed and no longer wants to help me out. I have one black and white and the other is brindle they are 13ish years old but are the sweetest girls in the world. I want them to stay together and not go to separate homes

Story
Lookah is the definition of a perfect gentleman. With his happy, laidback personality, he’s been an absolute joy to get to know—and it’s easy to see why everyone falls for him so quickly! While Lookah has a gentle, playful side and enjoys getting out for regular exercise, he’s just as content soaking up affection and enjoying life’s quieter moments. He has a calm, easygoing presence that makes him a wonderful companion both out on walks and relaxing at home. This smart boy already knows several cues like sit, down, and shake, and he walks beautifully on leash. He also appears to be potty trained, keeping his space nice and clean, and we suspect he may be crate trained as well—he’s often found curled up on his bed, perfectly content during his downtime. Lookah came to us as a stray, so we don’t know his full history with other animals. However, he’s been friendly with dogs he’s met here, though he can be a bit cautiously confident around other large male dogs. We’re always happy to set up a meet-and-greet to ensure a good match! One of Lookah’s standout qualities is how tolerant and easygoing he is—he enjoys handling and has even been a star student helping with veterinary technician training. He truly lives up to his “good boy” reputation. Lookah’s finder stated that he seemed fearful of men. Though we have not seen this behavior in shelter, he may be shyer towards men - needing a moment to get to know them better! With his thoughtful nature, loving personality, and great manners, Lookah is the kind of dog who will fit beautifully into many different homes. If you’re looking for a loyal, well-rounded companion, Lookah might just be your perfect match.

Story
Oneday is as sweet and gentle as her name suggests—a soft-hearted girl who’s happiest simply being close to her people. With her calm, easygoing nature and submissive personality, she brings a quiet kind of comfort wherever she goes. Oneday has spent her life alongside her companion, Toodaloo, and while they don’t necessarily have to be adopted together, they do share a special bond and truly enjoy each other’s company. We would love to see them find a home together if possible—but more than anything, we want both girls to land in loving homes where they can thrive. This lovely girl is all about affection. She’ll patiently sit in front of you, inching closer and closer, just hoping for a few extra pets. She doesn’t demand attention—she simply melts into it. Oneday appears to be potty trained, walks nicely on a leash, and knows the cue “sit.” She hasn’t quite discovered the joy of toys yet, but she does enjoy enrichment activities and peaceful strolls outdoors. She has not shown any reactivity toward other dogs and seems to really value canine companionship. Because of this, we think she’d do wonderfully with a dog friend in her new home—and we’re always happy to help arrange meet-and-greets prior to adopting! Oneday’s gentle, loving nature is truly something special. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate companion who just wants to be near you, she might be your perfect match.

Story
Blue is a curious and affectionate boy who loves spending time with his people. With a moderate energy level, he’s a wonderful mix of cool, easygoing Blue and warm, loving charm...the best of both worlds. He’s friendly with everyone he meets and brings a calm yet joyful presence wherever he goes. Blue could still use some crate training and will do best with slow, gradual introductions to being left alone.
