Story
Tito our latin boy was adopted out at four months old along side a kitty friend named Benny. Recently both were returned because the owner was moving over seas. We have welcomed him and Benny back with open arms. He is extremely loving and a good boy! He gets along very well with cats, dogs and children! He's vaccinated neutered up to date on shot and is ready to find his forever family. Tito is currently in Puerto Rico but can be flown to the perfect home at no extra cost to adopter. This Tito is bonded to his “brother” from Benny the cat. They were a fur-family living together, however their human family had to move overseas. We brought them in together and would love to see them adopted together if at all possible.

Story
Meet Lioness!  She is a short statured girl with a BIG personality.  Your eyes aren't deceiving you - her legs really are that short and she has the most adorable little kick every once in a while when she walks.  Lioness (her fosters call her Daisy) is super sweet and smart. She is doggie door-trained and loves to play with everyone, dogs, and kids, big and small. She pulls on a leash. She seems to have quite the appetite, so free feeding is out. She will be a joyful and entertaining companion that will keep you laughing.  Daisy sleeps on a dog bed, but is also happy to sleep in bed and is such a good cuddler. She is fostering in Las Vegas and is about 50 pounds.January 12, 2025, 9:27 pm

Story
Lobo is blooming! This is the boy you adopt if your pups have been asking for a friend. He adores other dogs. He will run and wrestle all day long. He will make you laugh with his antics. He loves to help with the gardening and will find all the sticks in the yard to pick up and carry around and will pull some tasty leaves off plants at his level So how about the downside of Lobo? Well he came to us from a breeder in Oklahoma that was shut down by the humane society. He is just a baby still but he had minimal contact with kind people early in his life. He is still scared to be pet but is coming up for some chin scratches especially if food is involved. He is finally taking treats from his foster mom and dad's hands which is a huge milestone for this guy.  He easily shares his toys and food with other dogs. We have discovered he loves going for walks but walks better if he has a buddy with him. He has the most gorgeous merle brush coat ( I just wish he loved us petting him) Lobo sleeps on a dog bed in his foster's bedroom. He has never tried to get up on the bed as much as we beg him too! He does love to sleep on the sofa especially when no one is watching. This boy has finally had his eyes done and a mini brow lift and OMG he can see. He has the most gorgeous green brown eyes. Lobo's forever home will definitely need someone who is patient and will give him time to come around. He will need another dog or 10 :) in his forever home who love to play. He is dog door trained so a yard would be a huge plus.  He loves riding in the car and has become a huge fan of hiking with his foster family. We truly believe the key to winning his guy over is consistent walks or hikes and LOTS of treats!        January 4, 2025, 5:12 pm
