Story
Meet Captain9 months old • 13 lbs • MorkieThis little guy is just a really good dog.Captain is sweet, playful, and loves being around his people. He can be a little shy at first, but it does not take long for him to warm up and show his fun personality.He is very much still a puppy - busy, curious, and always ready to play. He is great with other dogs, just a little in-your-face with his play style sometimes.He is crate trained (and actually loves it), sleeps great at night, and is still working on housebreaking - he will just need a family willing to stay consistent and help him learn.He is not complicated… just needs a soft place to land and someone to give him a little time.If you have been looking for a small, fun, loving dog - this might be your guy.Please complete an application on our website if you have interest in Captain.

Story
Meet Toffee!This sweet 2-year-old mix is a petite 30 lbs of fun and love! She is a social butterfly who enjoys strolls around the neighborhood to greet dogs and people alike. When she is back home, zoomies around the yard are a must before settling on the porch to watch the world go by.Toffee is playful and curious - she will happily chase squirrels and lizards (so probably no cats).She is also discovered the joys of AC and loves nothing more than curling up in her persons lap for snuggles.Her only little quirk? She sometimes thinks pillows and blankets make great chew toys - but with redirection and her favorite chew toys, she is making progress!While she is a great size for a condo or apartment, Toffee would thrive with a yard to run, play, and relax. She is working on self-control at the gate before walks, but once she is out, her nose leads the way on exciting sniffing adventures (especially if a fox has visited the night before).Toffee is looking for her forever family - a home where she can run, play, snuggle, and be loved.
