Story
Playful, Loving Puppy Looking for a Forever Home 🐶 This sweet pup was born on October 18, 2025 and has a happy, playful, and active personality. He loves to run, play, and explore, and he’s also incredibly lovable and affectionate. He gets along well with other dogs and has been raised in a family environment, making him social and well-adjusted. He would be a great fit for an active household or a family looking for a fun, loving companion to grow up with. This puppy comes from a family dog litter, and while he has been well cared for, we are unable to keep all of the puppies. We are focused on finding him a safe, responsible, and loving home where he can thrive. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate, and energetic puppy, this little guy could be the perfect match.

Story
Due to unexpected financial struggles and the loss of my income, I've been forced to move homes and can no longer provide the stability Ramen deserves. Ramen is 2 years old, potty trained, and up to date on all of his shots. He is incredibly loving, friendly, and gentle. He adores people, loves attention, and has the sweetest personality. This has absolutely nothing to do with his behavior. He is truly an amazing dog. He does have a bit of separation anxiety and pulls a little on walks, but he is absolutely able to be trained and does so well with patience, consistency, and love. It would completely break my heart to see him in a shelter. I am looking for a safe, loving forever home for him where he can thrive and be deeply cared for. This decision comes from love, not abandonment, and I want to make sure he goes to someone who will cherish him the way he deserves. If you or someone you know is interested in adopting Ramen or helping share this, please reach out.

Story
Found Dog Looking for a Loving Home 🐾 This young dog unexpectedly found her way to our house and has been staying with us temporarily. Unfortunately, our household is already very crowded, and we are unable to keep her long-term. She is extremely friendly, sweet, playful, and active. She loves people, enjoys attention, and has a happy, outgoing personality. She would do great in a home that can give him the time, space, and affection he deserves. We are hoping to find a responsible, loving home that can provide proper care, stability, and companionship. If you recognize her or are interested in giving this sweet dog a forever home, please reach out.

Story
Raya is 2 1/2 years old. She is a very sweet and loving dog. She enjoys being with her family and playing with her chew toys and tennis balls. She knows how to shake with both paws, give high-fives, sit, stay and does the down position. Unfortunately, she does not get along with my female, senior dog. She is fine with my other male dog and has no issues. I think it might be a female dominant thing. I just wanted to be 100% open and honest we would love for her to find a new loving family without a female dog in the home.

Story
Gunner is a 1-year-old Labrador Retriever that we adopted from a family friend. This decision has been incredibly difficult, but due to my work schedule (10-hour days) and apartment living, I can’t give Gunner the time, space, and lifestyle he truly deserves. Gunner is a sweet, loving, high-energy dog with a big personality. He absolutely loves running at the dog park, going on long walks, and being active. He also enjoys adventures like the beach and camping — he’s the kind of dog who thrives when he’s outdoors and on the move. He can be a little nervous when first introduced to new spaces, but once he warms up, his playful and affectionate nature shines through. From our experience at dog parks, he does great with other dogs and has been wonderful around kids. All of Gunner’s shots are up to date, and he is healthy and well cared for. I’m hoping to find him a home with a large yard or plenty of space where he can run freely and get the exercise and stimulation he needs.

I got Tija at a rescue facility in 2020…because my daughter thought I needed another doggo since I had to let my dog of 18yrs cross that rainbow bridge!

My mama passed away in 2024 & I couldn’t just let him go, but now I have to downsize…just to expensive here and the apartment we’re going to says NO PETS 🥹💔 I really really really would love for Tija & Tommy to be adopted together!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻💔💔 Tommy already lost his human & now he’s losing me…please don’t let him lose his fur-sister too!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻💔💔
