Story
We rescued Fitz when he was only a few days old. His pregnant mom was rescued by a friend of ours, and she gave birth to her puppies while in foster care. Fitz has been part of our family for the past five and a half years and moved with us into our first home. Since then, our family has grown, and we now have two young daughters. While Fitz has never shown aggression and nothing has ever happened, we no longer feel fully comfortable having him around a toddler and an infant without constant supervision. This has been an incredibly difficult decision because we truly love him and want what is best for both him and our children. Fitz is a loving dog who would thrive in a home where he can get plenty of attention, affection, and outdoor time. He loves being outside, running around, and has a lot of energy, he is incredibly fast and happiest when he has space to play and explore. We hope to find him a caring family who can give him the time, love, and active environment he deserves.

Story
Hi i’m Leia 🐾 and I’m basically the total package: smart, social, and always ready for an adventure with my chill demeanor. I learn fast, love hanging out with dogs my size, and I’m just as happy going for a car ride as I am supervising backyard activities like it’s my full-time job. My crate? No problem, I relax in there like a seasoned professional. Whether it’s playtime, patio time, or outside sniffing every blade of grass, I’m down for it all!

Story
Special Needs but with a HUGE HEART!! Please read entire bio below!! Charlie is a 3 year-old Yorkie/Schnauzer mix weighing around 16 pounds, and is pure joy wrapped up in a small, scruffy package. Charlie greets life with a happy, playful spirit that’s impossible not to smile at. Charlie is incredibly social and thrives in a home with another playful dog who can be his buddy for zoomies, games, and backyard adventures. He MUST have a playful dog 15-25 lbs in size and close in age. Charlie loves to play with other dogs in a fenced yard and we will not take this away from him. Must have fenced yard as well. He’s a lover boy who not only loves to be held, but also a toy-loving, fun-chasing, tail-wagging kind of boy… honestly, he might pick his toys over food if given the choice! His happiest moments are running freely in a fenced yard with his doggie friends, playing, exploring, and also being part of the action with his people. ✨ What makes Charlie special: Friendly, social, and affectionate with everyone Loves other dogs and would adore a playmate Energetic, playful, and full of happy personality About 16 lbs—perfect small companion size Thrives with space to run and play Charlie is also a homebody at heart and would do best in a stable, loving home where he can stay close to his person and enjoy a predictable, comforting routine.  A little note from his care team: Charlie does require daily eye medications and may need ongoing eye drops long-term. It’s simply part of his care routine—and it doesn’t slow him down one bit. He takes it all in stride, and it’s a small thing compared to the huge amount of love, joy, and companionship he gives every single day.   Because when you meet Charlie, you don’t see “medication needs”—you see a happy little dog with the sweetest soul, the gentlest heart, and a personality that fills an entire room. He’s the kind of dog who makes life lighter, funnier, and a whole lot more loving. He does still like to play with his mouth like a young dog, no small kids under 10. He is not aggressive at all but we don’t want his play to get misinterpreted.June 8, 2026, 10:14 pm

Story
Cross is a handsome 9 year old male, Shepherd mix...a darling boy with a huge heart. He’s a big boy, around 70 lbs. Cross is a Shepherd mix, maybe part retriever because he loves to retrieve tennis balls so much. He was actually obtained on Craigslist then abandoned at a local boarding kennel. He lived at the kennel for several years until finally finding his foster home.  Cross is shy at first around new people, but is very affectionate after he gets to know you. Once he does, he is SUPER loving. His favorite best friend is Ginger, a mini lab mix also up for adoption. They were both abandoned around the same time and have been best buddies for years. If they got adopted together it would be AMAZING! But this is not required. Cross MUST have a medium size, playful female in the home. He cannot be the only dog as he would be lonely. He does best with female dogs. He can be very shy with men, as men didn't treat him the best early in life.  He really needs a female in his home, as well as a tall fenced yard. The ideal home for Cross is a woman in her 40’s-50’s who’s still active, can be married but any man will need to have a sweet, loving personality to win him over. Also a home with a tall fence and a playful female dog, or who can adopt Ginger too!March 15, 2026, 12:10 am
