Story
Meet Duckie, an adorable little guy weighing 8 lbs but possessing a larger-than-life personality and an even bigger ‘tude!! At around two years old, Duckie is full of energy and loves to play. He enjoys entertaining himself with toys and zooming around. He gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes, as well as cats, and is fantastic with children. The Duckster is quite the Velcro dog. When he’s not busy running around causing mischief, squeaking, or growling at his toys, he loves to snuggle right on top of you, showering you with kisses. He is incredibly affectionate and enjoys being held and carried around. Duckie embodies the typical chihuahua traits, being a bit yappy and overly protective of his family when it comes to strangers. Currently, he wears a belly band to assist with his marking. Having just been neutered, this, along with the belly band, should help him learn to do his business outside. Duckie has a medical condition that is currently well managed with daily medication and routine veterinary care. While he has experienced occasional seizure-like episodes, he has not been formally diagnosed with epilepsy. He thrives with a consistent routine and a loving caregiver who is comfortable giving medication and providing a calm, supportive environment. With the right home, Duckie can continue to enjoy a happy, playful and love-filled life.  So, if you’re in search of a companion who will entertain you, cuddle with you, and protect you from any scary monsters and things that go bump in the night, Duckie is the perfect match! PLEASE EMAIL BICKLEKT@GMAIL.COM to meet Duckie.

Story
Hi! I'm Buddha-Bambino, a playful 9-month-old French-Bulldog mix male, who knows how to work hard and play hard. I was found in a local school! Soon, after my rescuer came to get me, they found out I was super friendly and a goofball of affection. My foster mom would like a patient home for me. Nevertheless, I'm not a barker and I already have the skills of sitting, staying and being calm in my crate. Also, I am super friendly with big and small dogs, and I'm curious about cats. I need loving and patient pet parents who enjoy both active play and quiet evenings, playing fetch, taking walks, and cuddling with me. If you are looking for a devoted companion and big kisser, let's meet! Please reach out to ADOPT@VALLEYDOGS.ORG or EARTHWISHES07@GMAIL.COM.  Buddha is bonded with Dharma. would love to see them be adopted together!  Courtesy posted through Valley Dogs Rescue.

Story
Meet Kali—a lovable, loyal little lady with a big personality! Kali is the perfect blend of curious and cuddly. She’s an explorer at heart and enjoys checking out her surroundings, but she’s no troublemaker—Kali does great at home even when left alone. True to her dachshund roots, she’s got a strong prey drive and loves chasing birds or the occasional feral cat, so she’ll do best in a home without small pets like cats, guinea pigs, or reptiles. Kali lives for park days and adores playing chase with her doggie pals. She’d thrive in a home with a secure backyard (she is part dachshund, after all—digging is in her DNA!) and would love a furry sibling to hang out with while her humans are away. She gets along well with other dogs her size. Kali isn’t shy about expressing herself—if she thinks she’s missing out on the fun, she’ll let you know with a few vocal opinions. :) When the day winds down, Kali transforms into a total cuddlebug. She’ll gently nuzzle in close, letting you know she’s ready for some cozy snuggles and a little extra love. This sweet girl is ready to bring joy, adventure, and a whole lot of love to her forever family. EMAIL ADOPT@VALLEYDOGS.ORG to meet Kali and see for yourself what a gem she is!

Story
Meet Max! This 1.5-old Labrador/English Foxhound mix is as sweet as he is handsome—with big floppy ears, a heart full of love, and a tail that never stops wagging. Max is a playful goofball who’s always up for an adventure—whether it’s chasing a ball, going for a stroll around the neighborhood, or sniffing out new trails. He’s got energy to spare and a true zest for life! But don’t let his sporty side fool you—Max is also a major snuggler. After a day of fun, he loves curling up next to his humans for some serious cuddle time. He’s gentle, affectionate, and happiest when he’s part of the action, especially with kids. Max is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. He’s crate trained, knows some basic commands, and with a little continued guidance, he’s well on his way to becoming the perfect pup. He needs a home with a yard to run in and someone who can keep up with his playful spirit and return all the love he so freely gives. Ready to meet this lovable goof? Contact Paula at SPWHEEELS1@GMAIL.COM —Max can’t wait to meet his forever family!
