Story
Zella is a 7-month-old purebred red Toy Poodle weighing 5.2 lbs. She comes from a reputable breeder, and breeder information can be provided to serious adopters. She is sweet, intelligent, affectionate, and has a calm temperament. While she enjoys toys, occasional zoomies, and exploring outside, she is generally a relaxed puppy who loves to lounge and be near her people. Zella is fully potty trained, sleeps through the night, settles nicely in her playpen, and is comfortable spending time independently. She often chooses to relax in her playpen even when she has access to other areas. She knows sit, down, touch, paw, come, leave it, and responds reliably to her name. She is healthy, well cared for, and up to date on routine veterinary care. She comes with all of her belongings, including her playpen, toys, blankets, supplies, and her favorite Snuggle Puppy. Priority is finding a loving, committed home that will continue her training and make her a cherished member of the family.

Story
Sammy has been our dog for over five years, and we love her very much. She is very smart and obedient. I often walk her without a leash, and she goes outside in the front yard off leash with me almost every day. Sammy is very energetic. Her love language is going on walks, and she especially loves long walks. She is a bit obsessed with squirrels and loves to chase them. She is okay with other dogs. She loves playing with our neighbor’s dog, but if another dog is aggressive, she will not back down. Sammy is extremely house trained. She has never destroyed anything and has never had any accidents in the house. Three years ago, we had our first child, and Sammy has never quite adjusted. She is anxious around young kids and would do best in a home without them. She has never caused any real harm, but she needs a place where she can feel completely safe.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Sasha – Small, Mighty, and Full of Personality!    Looking for a loyal companion who will be your ride-or-die best friend? Meet Sasha – a 45-pound bulldog mix with a big personality packed into a sturdy, compact frame. She’s looking for a very special home that will understand and appreciate her strong bulldog spirit.  Sasha’s Story & Personality  Sasha is a one-of-a-kind gal with a big heart—and big opinions. She’s selective about her people and her dog friends, and she doesn’t hand out her trust to just anyone. She prefers women and can be wary of men at first, but with patience and time, she can warm up once she feels safe. That said, she is not the kind of dog who wants to meet all your guests — she needs a home where people understand that not every pup enjoys being approached right away.   She’s a vocal little bully, known for making the signature bulldog “yelp-grumble” when she wants attention, wants to go outside, or is just announcing her presence. It’s not exactly a bark—it’s more of a quirky bulldog noise that will make you smile if you’ve heard it before.   Sasha is food-motivated, potty trained, and loves a good walk around the block. She enjoys a routine, quiet environment where she can feel in control of her space and bond deeply with her people.  Sasha’s Ideal Home  Because of her selectiveness and sensitivity to new people, Sasha would do best in:  A female-only home  An adult-only environment with no children A home with no other pets, where she can be the queen of the castle A low-traffic household with few visitors or guests    She’s not the right fit for someone looking for a social dog who wants to greet the whole neighborhood—but she’s absolutely perfect for someone who wants a loyal companion, a walking buddy, and a goofy, vocal, loving best friend.  The Right Person for Sasha  Sasha is looking for a confident, patient, and understanding adopter who sees her for who she is—a strong-willed, loving dog who just needs the right environment to shine. Once she trusts you, her loyalty is unshakable.   If you’re a bulldog lover or a fan of the “underdogs,” Sasha might be your perfect match. Come meet her and see if your home is the forever home she’s been waiting for.    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 9, 2026, 1:27 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Logan!! Logan is a fun, energetic shepherd hound mix who came to Pet Rescue By Judy from an overcrowded rescue in Alabama with his friend Ella. He is playful, active, and always ready for adventure. Logan enjoys spending time with other dogs and would do well with an active family. This happy boy is looking for a forever home where he can run, play, and be loved. Important Information for New Puppy Parents  Welcoming a new puppy into your home is an exciting and rewarding experience—but it also comes with important responsibilities. To help your puppy grow into a happy, confident, and well-adjusted adult dog, dedication to obedience training, socialization, and consistent potty training is essential.  We strongly recommend that the entire family participates in puppy training classes. This not only helps build a strong bond with your new pup but also ensures that everyone is using the same commands and techniques, creating a clear and consistent environment for learning.  **Puppies thrive with structure, patience, and positive reinforcement—and so do their families! Let’s set them up for a lifetime of love and success  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 9, 2026, 1:27 pm
