Story

Meet Snowy Snowy is a people-loving girl who truly enjoys human companionship. She loves car rides and travels well with people, making her a great adventure or errand buddy. Snowy has no resource guarding issues with humans and is very good with people overall. She has no fear of loud noises and settles well around everyday activity.Important Notes About Snowyâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s Needs:Not cat-friendly â&#194&#128&#194&#147 Snowy has not been exposed to cats or chickens, but she will chase squirrels and small animals. Previous owner does not believe she would be safe with cats.Not livestock-safe â&#194&#128&#194&#147 Snowy has attacked goats on a few occasions and did break skin. She had no prior training or proper exposure to goats and was typically separated using an e-fence. Because of this, she should not be placed in a home with livestock.Dog selective â&#194&#128&#194&#147 Snowy has shown food aggression toward her brother. AO is unsure if she could live with another large dog, though it may be possible with very slow, structured introductions and completely separate feedings. A single-dog home would be ideal.Secure fencing required â&#194&#128&#194&#147 Snowy has been e-fence trained (no collar) and has lived behind hard fencing approximately 6 ft tall with an added barbed wire layer reaching 8 ft. She has never escaped or attempted to escape.Additional Info:â&#194&#128¢Facial scarring is from strangles as a puppyâ&#194&#128¢Raised inside/outside with her litter before AO acquired her as a larger puppyâ&#194&#128¢Enjoys companionship more than playIdeal Home for Snowy:Snowy would do best in a home where she can be an only pet, live indoors, and enjoy consistent human companionship. A secure yard is a must, and she should not be placed with cats, small animals, or livestock. She would thrive with adopters who understand management, boundaries, and appreciate a calm, people-oriented dog.Snowy is a loyal, steady companion who just needs the right environment to shine. ??January 20, 2026, 2:58 pm

Story

Meet Cruz â&#194&#128&#194&#148 a small, long-haired mystery mutt wrapped in black, brown, and white fabulousness. He is a terrier mix who looks like a weenie dog and an Australian Shepherd had a very stylish baby. While we can only guess Cruzâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s breed, we do know he is 100% adorable.Cruz LOVES to play, snuggle like itâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s his full-time job, and give kisses whether you asked for them or not. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s basically a tiny circus performer who knows sit, down, up, roll over, and even â&#194&#128&#194&#156dance.â&#194&#128&#194&#157 But fair warning: if you ask him to perform without paying him in treats, he will scold you with a bark. Cruz believes in fair wages.At night, Cruz is a sleep-through-the-night, snuggle-certified bed hog who sleeps peacefully beside you like heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s been paying rent for years. During the day, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s all about tug-o-war and fetch with his beloved toys, which he refers to exclusively as his â&#194&#128&#194&#156babies.â&#194&#128&#194&#157He walks nicely on a leash and will proudly accompany you on strolls like the loyal sidekick he is. He also does well in public on outings, recognizing when you ask if he wants to â&#194&#128&#194&#156go for a car ride.â&#194&#128&#194&#157 His favorite treats while out are pup cups, puppy patties from In-n-Out, or a lunch plate from Lazy Dog.Now, letâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s talk about Cruzâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s personality quirks, because no legend is without them. Cruz is vocalâ&#194&#128&#194&#148not yappy, but expressive. He will let you know when heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s hungry, needs to go outside, or requires immediate admiration. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s a bit needy, gets sad when you leave, and takes some time to self-soothe. He is not crate trained, because frankly, Cruz believes crates are beneath him.If youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153re looking for a low-maintenance, emotionally distant dogâ&#194&#128¦ keep scrolling.But if you want a funny, dramatic, affectionate little shadow who will love you loudly, snuggle you intensely, and demand snacks with convictionâ&#194&#128&#194&#148Cruz might just be your soulmate.Cruz is in Foster so please call to make an appointment for Meet and GreetJanuary 23, 2026, 7:45 pm
