Meet Fern! Hi! I'm Fern, and I'm 9 weeks old as of September 26th! I'm the playful, adventurous type who thinks the world is pretty exciting! I love discovering new things, going on outdoor adventures, and playing with all my favorite toys. There's always something fun to explore! My mama is a very happy very sweet 20 pound beagle mix named Piglet!! So far, I'm growing up to be just like mama!! My foster mom says I'm doing so well with potty training already! I'm also working hard on my nighttime crate training and am doing a great job going potty outside after naps and meals. And while I love to play and explore, I definitely have a soft side, too. After I've had my fun, there's nothing better than curling up in my foster mom's lap for some cuddles and a cozy nap. I'm just a little puppy with a big personality, and I'm ready to find my forever family to grow, learn, play, and love with!

Story

Meet This Adorable Little Lovebug! Just look at that sweet face and those big eyes! This 5-year-old, 17-pound Shih Tzu mix is as cute as can be-and his wonderful personality makes him even more lovable! He's a total sweetheart who loves his people and is happiest when he can be close to them. Affectionate, loving, and wonderfully snuggly, he'll gladly curl up beside you for some quality cuddle time, or under the covers with you in bed! He's also a fantastic little companion with great manners! He is completely house trained, crate trained, and good on a leash. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and enjoys meeting people, so he would make a wonderful addition to a loving home. Winston seems to be learning about toys for the first time! He recently picked one up and tossed it around... it is so cute and rewarding when we get to see these abandoned and neglected dogs experience new things that we take for granted. Something as simple as learning what a toy is and how to play with it. If you're looking for a happy, affectionate little guy who is ready to be your best friend and professional snuggle buddy, this adorable boy may be your perfect match!
