Story
Adorable little Jakey boy! ?? Just as precious as he looks, but even the cutest pups can have a little sass! Jake would feel his best in a home without kids under 12. He`s a shy sweetheart who needs his space and might give a little snap if he feels overwhelmed. This lovable guy is looking for a home filled with patience, kindness, and all the gentle love he deserves!

Story
I`m a wonderful companion who thrives on attention, enjoys walks, and absolutely loves car rides. I`m also perfectly content to relax on the couch and keep you company. My ideal home is one where I am showered with love, attention, treats, and regular walks. I should mention that I can be a bit possessive and jealous when I`m getting attention—it’s just part of my personality—but I’m not looking for conflict, just a little extra reassurance. For those curious, I weigh between 16-18 pounds, making me the perfect size for cuddles and companionship!

Story
Hi, I’m Emma. I had a rough start in life, but I’m doing great now. I’m always in a good mood, unless I’m chasing the birds in my back yard--then, I’m pretty fierce. I love to play retrieving my toys but also love to watch TV with my foster parent. I love everyone--dogs and humans. It doesn’t matter if you’re short or tall, I’m not intimidated at all. I was very skinny when I got here and still am on the slim side (10 lbs.), but I do like my food and like to graze a little all day. I’ve learned the doggy door and fly out of it 100 times a day going after whatever I think is out there. My voice is a little high-pitched because I am almost deaf and can be a bit “barky”. The vet said that he thinks I have a lot of birth defects that affect my balance and make my back end a little weak. Because my teeth are out of line and some are missing, my tongue sticks out. I haven’t been around kids at all so I don’t know how good I’ll be with them, but I’d say that young children would not be good for me.
