Story
JJ is a sweet, gentle pug who will be turning 2 years old this April. She has a calm, affectionate personality and has been a wonderful companion in a family environment. She is great with kids—patient, gentle, and loving—and enjoys being around people. JJ is friendly and does well with other dogs, especially in a calm and respectful setting. She enjoys short walks, relaxing at home, and staying close to her humans. JJ is in good health and has been well cared for. She thrives on routine, attention, and a loving environment where she can feel secure and part of the family. Due to major life changes and relocation, I’m no longer able to provide the long-term stability JJ deserves. This decision comes from a place of love and responsibility, with her best interest at heart. I am looking for a committed, responsible adopter who can offer JJ a safe, stable, and permanent home. Ideally, her new family will understand the pug temperament and be ready to treat her as a lifelong companion.

Ellie is a sweetheart. She is so friendly with everyone. Ellie wags her tail when she is happy. She loves to roll on her back, so you can rub on her belly. Everyone adores her wherever she goes. Ellie is a social dog. She can’t wait to play and interact with other dogs. She loves going up to people and say, “Hi” to them by shaking her body and tail. We want to make sure that Ellie is going to be in a great home.

Story
Lulu is looking for a home with a big yard to run and play in all day. She knows her basic commands and enjoys playing hide and seek (ask her to “find” and watch her go!). She has gotten along with the cats she has been around but would probably prefer to be the only pet. She’s a good girl looking for a good home.

Java is a loving dog who truly enjoys affection and companionship. She has a fiery spirit, loves attention, and enjoys playing and having fun. She is 2 years old, and I’ve raised her since the day she was born. I’m looking for someone who can provide her with a safe, patient, and loving home. Java can be a bit shy at first, but with patience and care, she quickly becomes more comfortable and shows her sweet personality.
