Story
🐾 Meet Lacy! 🐶✨ Age: 7 years | Weight: 10-11 lbs | Breed: Border Terrier Say hello to sweet Lacy 💕 — a curious little crumb detective 🍞🔍 and certified cuddlebug 🛋️💤. She's fully housetrained 🚽✅ and politely lets you know when it's potty time! ⏰ Lacy is dog-friendly 🐕🐾 and crate-comfy after a few minutes of settling in 🏡🧸. She's generally good on leash (though she might do a little pulling dance 💃), and she's willing to listen — especially if you have treats involved! 🍖👂 Her favorite hobbies include: 🧼 Vacuuming your floors (with her mouth) 👐 Soaking up pets and attention 🚶‍♀️ Exploring the world at a comfy pace Lacy is low-to-medium energy 💗 and prefers the simple joys in life — like snuggles and snacks. Fast movements can make her a bit wary, so she'd thrive in a calm, gentle home 💖 (no cats or kids tested yet). As for toys? Meh. Lacy says, "That's kid stuff." 🎾🙅‍♀️ Ready to share your heart and home with a lovable little terrier? 🥰 Lacy can't wait to meet you!

Story
🌟 Meet Tasha! This 4 yr old 25 lb terrier mix is a gentle little soul full of shy charm. Tasha is all about quiet companionship, cozy naps, and tender little moments that make your heart melt 💛🐾 💃 Personality & Quirks Tasha is a sweet girl and once she trusts you, she's ALL IN, chin in your hand, head on your lap, and belly in the air like "please rub this immediately." She also has surprise bursts of zoomie enthusiasm that appear out of nowhere like a software update you didn't schedule. Tasha is a quiet soul learning to trust the noise of the world and she would really love a brother or sister pooch to help her grow in confidence and to steal the occasional carrot from 🥕 🏅 Good Girl Status House-training: still learning the ropes but doing great with some encouragement! Kennel-training: finds comfort in her crate and settles beautifully. Leash skills: walks sweetly and enjoys important neighborhood sniff investigations. Activity level: medium-low. Bursts of play, then lots of cuddly downtime. Other dogs: polite, friendly, and happy to share toys (no resource guarding here!). 💖 In a Nutshell Tasha is a soft-hearted, people-loving companion who wants safety, kindness, and a calm home to blossom in. If you're looking for a gentle girl to love, lounge with, and cheer on as she grows in confidence… Tasha might be your perfect match 💕🐶 *Tasha has not been tested with children or cats

Story
Meet Jack, your new best friend! 🤩 He's a 3-5 year old Spaniel cross who weighs somewhere between 12-15 pounds, depending on how much gravy-covered meals he's scored that week. 😂 This handsome boy is a certified cuddlebug with a heart full of love and a soundtrack to match. Seriously, he sings with the soul of a Husky trapped in a Spaniel body. Jack is great with other dogs and has been getting the hang of this whole play thing. He adores his foster cats and sometimes needs a gentle reminder to play nice. Teenagers? Big fan. Little kids? He hasn't met many but with his sweet and gentle nature, he'd probably do great. Now let's talk about Jack's biggest passion - walks. Say the W-word and brace yourself....this boy will start crying the moment the harness comes out. It's dramatic, adorable and totally Jack. Once you're out the door, he's a near perfect walker, more focused on sniffing the world than pulling you through it. Jack isn't shy about voicing his opinions, especially when crated. He much prefers the couch, a cozy blanket or better yet, your arms. He loves to be held like a baby and he will flop into your embrace like a soggy noodle. It's his signature move. 😎 Jack is not a fan of being alone so he'd love a home with another dog friend or a human who is around more often than not. When left alone, he'll cry a bit, then curl up for a power nap, likely dreaming about his next walk or gourmet canned dinner (forget the kibble)! Jack is doing well with potty training, especially with regular access to the yard. He's not destructive when alone, just content to watch the world go by or chew on his favourite toys. ☺️ Oh, let's not forget that Jack loves the shower. Invite him in and you've got a furry little spa partner for life! Jack is a sweet, soulful and affectionate boy looking for his forever family. He will shower you with love and laughs daily. Don't wait, apply to meet Jack today! 💙
