Story
Meet the beefcake, Freddie. He is a very special dog who loves people, and his housemate Mookie. Freddie knows how to use a dog door, and loves to snuggle. He will sleep next to you in bed and even spoon you on occasion. Freddie love to play tug of war and chase his buddy. Freddie is extremely goofy and has a heart of gold. He also like to get into the dirty laundry and the trash. Freddie has separation anxiety, and would do best in a home where someone is there often, and there is another dog, preferably his buddy Mookie, where he can be the Beta.

Story
Mookie has been with me since he was a young puppy. He just turned four years old. Mour family got Mookie from a breeder in Eastern Washington, and spent most of his early years with us as a work from home family. He knows how to use a dog door, and has been around kids his whole life. He loves other dogs, including his housemate, Freddie. He enjoys cuddling between legs on a blanket and will sleep under the covers by your feet. Unfortunately, since moving back to California and becoming single, I cannot afford to give as much attention to Mookie and Freddie as they deserve. He is crate trained and loves to play fetch.

Story
🐾 Meet Mr. Cash 🐾 With the heaviest hearts, we’re looking for a new forever home for our sweet boy, Mr. Cash. We adopted him as a tiny baby and have loved him every single day since. Unfortunately, due to an upcoming move, we can no longer keep him, and it’s breaking our hearts. We just want to make sure he finds a home filled with the same love, kindness, and compassion he’s always known. Mr. Cash is a gentle, affectionate soul who loves to snuggle. He truly is a big baby at heart—soft, sweet, and happiest when he’s close to his people. He gets along well with everyone and has such a kind spirit. He is still young and learning, so there are a couple things to know: • He occasionally has accidents in the house, but he’s improving with routine. • He may dart out of the door if it’s left open, so he needs a family who can keep him safe and be mindful of doors and gates. Other than that, he’s an absolute joy—playful, cuddly, friendly, and full of love.

She is an incredibly sweet, gentle girl who truly wants to be a good dog. She’s wonderful with other dogs and walks beautifully on leash without pulling. She doesn’t chase cats, listens really well and already responds to her name. She’s almost fully house-trained and already cries at the door when she needs to go out. At night, she sleeps peacefully in her crate and settles in with no fuss. She loves chasing a ball and playing, but she’s not mouthy at all—just happy, joyful energy and great manners. Overall, she’s an easygoing, affectionate pup who would fit seamlessly into just about any home with continued exercise and proper training. Maya is an all-around fantastic dog who’s ready to be someone’s best friend. *All Itsie Bitsie Puppies are spayed/neutered, microchipped, started on vaccines, dewormed, and vet-checked. IBR requires landlord permission for renters and a yard check for all puppies. We do not adopt out siblings. Please allow volunteers a few days to look over applications. An adoption fee applies.

She’s a smart sweetheart who is always prepared to make you proud, with a simple routine and basic training, she’ll happily show off how quick she can master newly taught skills…her wagging tail is basically a built-in applause meter.

Story
My wife had adopted Bumi (King Bumi if you want to be formal) just before we got together. Now that we have started a family, we found out that he isn't the best with small children. Our 1-year-old is a bit too much for him to handle. He doesn't do BAD with her, but he isn't good with her either. He has always struggled with baths and getting his nails clipped. I highly recommend he is taken to a groomer for this; he has bitten our hands before. He's a sweet dog 98% of the time. He has been acting out a bit lately because we haven't been able to provide the same amount of attention as we used to. I think he misses his "brother" our yellow lab who has already been rehomed. He will be best suited for a household that doesn't have small children and can give him lots of attention. He loves playing fetch, does fairly well with other dogs, but has a bit of "little man" syndrome. He hasn't had any problems with the cats he been around thus far, if the cat is "chill" he's chill.
