Story
JD is a lover! We have had him since a pup and he turns 10 this September. We went back and forth on if we could keep him, but with the addition of our daughter and future children we cannot give him the attention, time, and love that he needs and deserves. He loves to be active as well as cuddle in bed. He is great to take on runs because he likes to move fast. He is very smart. He is also very food driven. He does not get along with our toddler and it has become difficult to give them both what they need. He is used to going to the bathroom outside 3-4 times a day. We want him to find a safe home with someone who can be better dog parents than us. He is truly a loving dog, but with our lifestyle deserves more. He is still so energetic and agile, you would not believe he will be 10. If you want cuddles, love, and a buddy who always wants to hang out JD is a great dog for you.

Story
🎶 Patsy – The Heart of the Honky-Tonk 💕Straight from the Lone Star State, meet Patsy — a 3-month-old, 20-lb hound/lab mix who’s got the soul of a country song and the heart of a best friend. 💛While her sister Loretta might be the loud one on stage, Patsy’s the harmony — gentle, loving, and quietly steals the show with her big brown eyes and even bigger heart. She’s a natural entertainer who’s still building her confidence, but give her a few days and she’ll have you laughing, cuddling, and wondering how you ever lived without her.Patsy’s learning her basics fast — she’s already this close to mastering “sit,” walks great on a leash, and is doing well with crate training. She adores her foster brothers, loves exploring the great outdoors, and is always down for an adventure (especially if snacks are involved). 🐾She doesn’t need to be the center of attention — she’s just happy to be part of your story. Whether she’s snuggled next to you on the couch or trotting beside you on a walk, Patsy’s the kind of dog that makes every day feel like a Sunday drive with your favorite song on the radio. 🎵📍 Currently fostering in Salem, WI💵 Adoption Fee: $500 + $150 spay depositSo if you’re looking for a little country charm, a whole lot of love, and a best friend who’ll always hit the right note — come meet Patsy, the Heart of the Honky-Tonk. 🤠💞👉 Apply to adopt at www.biggiepawsrescue.org#BiggiePawsRescue 💚🐾 #AdoptPatsy #RescueDog #AdoptDontShop #TexasSweetheart #CountrySoul #HonkyTonkHeart #PuppyLoveDATCP # 494550

Story
Have you ever tried peanut butter with a bagel? 🥯 It really is a delicious breakfast treat! Peanut Butter and Bagel join us for the most important meal of the day all the way from Texas. They’re being fostered in central 📍 Wisconsin, right where many of the best breakfast foods are grown! 🥛 Bagel and Peanut Butter do not have to go together (but they sure are a wonderful pairing). Peanut Butter 🥜 is a tasty snack all on his own! He’s playful, friendly and outgoing. He loves belly rubs… but I don’t know who doesn’t after a good meal! 🍳 Bagel is a little more cautious and would prefer a companion to make him more comfortable. Nobody likes a plain Bagel anyway! 😜 While he is a little more shy, Bagel warms up quickly (even without a toaster) and will enjoy his own belly rubs before you know it. 💙Both boys are 5 months old and are believed to be hound mixes. They have been neutered ✂️ and are UTD on the age-appropriate vaccinations. 💉 While Peanut Butter is a little bigger, at 37 pounds, than Bagel, who’s 33 pounds, they should both be medium-sized once full grown. Their adoption fees are $500 each. For such young pups, Peanut Butter and Bagel are both pretty chill. They love getting their puppy energy out first thing in the morning ☀️ with a good run or play session… and then they will go straight to the couch for some cuddles. A leash is something they’ve gotten used to and are very gentle when walking. They’re nearly housebroken 🚽 and just need someone to follow a consistent routine to maintain their excellent bathroom ratings! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Bagel and Peanut Butter are kid friendly and love other dogs too. They do well around cats 🐈 and have even met some chickens. Peanut Butter will chase chickens though. He must realize that they contain eggs. 🥚 Both pups are otherwise well-mannered and listen to commands like, “sit” and “kennel.” If you’d like to invite a friend or two to your breakfast table, you can apply to adopt Peanut Butter and/or Bagel at biggiepawsrescue.org DATCP #494550DATCP # 494550
