Story
Meet our adorable wire-haired pup! This unique cutie is a Miniature Schnauzer, Husky, and Pittie mix — which means you get the best of all worlds: smart, loyal, playful, and full of personality.   They are very sweet, affectionate, and absolutely full of energy. This pup loves to play, explore, and be part of the action, so an active home would be a great fit. Because they’re still young, they will need continued training and socialization to help them grow into a well-mannered, confident adult dog.   With consistency, structure, and lots of love, this pup is going to make an incredible companion. If you’re ready for fun, adventure, and a loyal best friend, this wire-haired cutie might be the perfect match!   An application to adopt is required and can be found on our website under the our dogs section or adopt section at kibblezoflove.org.  The adoption fee is $450 The age requirement to adopt is 25+ years old.   All dogs are spayed or neutered, chipped and UTD on hw and flea preventative and all age appropriate vaccines.  ##2666843##

Story
Meet Winston! Born into FLUFF in January 2022, Winston started life surrounded by care and love. Adopted as a puppy, we had high hopes for his happily-ever-after. Sadly, nearly three years later, Winston’s family surrendered him back to the rescue in January of this year. While we always welcome FLUFF animals back with open arms, Winston’s return broke our hearts.  With time, patience, and love, Winston has made incredible strides. He’s learning that life isn’t so scary after all! Winston would thrive with an experienced foster or adopter who can continue helping him build confidence, offering structure and obedience training. His ideal home will be calm, patient, and kind, providing the stability he needs to flourish. Due to his nervous nature, Winston would do best in a home without children, where he can receive gentle and understanding care at his own pace. He’s also on a weight-loss journey, working toward shedding about 15 lbs. to become a healthier, happier pup. Could you be the one to help Winston continue his transformation? Whether through fostering or adoption, you could change his world forever.  https://www.fluffanimalrescue.org/adoption-application Adoption fee includes neuter, microchip and registration, all age appropriate vaccines and preventatives through adoption date! Thanks for considering adoption! *Information deemed reliable, but not guarenteed* ##1367757##

Story
Hi, I’m Abby! Ive had sweet little Enzo for about 8 months, I got him from a private breeder at around 6 months and paid 2500$ for him. Enzo is super loving & has lots of energy, he loves to run/play in the back yard. When he’s not playing he’s trying to cuddle around your neck, he is the true definition of a lap dog. My only real reasons for rehoming Enzo is, I broke my wrist a couple months ago. I’ve had surgery since then so it’s been extremely difficult to care for him during this time. Since i’m able to work again, I have now been working a lot of hours so I don’t get to spend as much time as I’d like with him. I’d like to find him a home with other dogs or kids and definitely a fenced in backyard so he can run as much as his heart desires. I’m willing to meet up to introduce him to other dogs in the family or just you. He loves people!!
