Story

Recently was able to get her fully vaccinated.. so is updated I've had her for about 13 years. Found her on a freeway in the middle of winter. She's not the same as we found her..quite fluffy. She's good if you need to leave for a while, will go potty in the bathroom if needed. She loves attention, but doesn't like her butt sniffed, sometimes rolls on the ground. I'm getting ready to move to the Philippines to remarry. Her age wouldn't be good for the journey, so would appreciate very much.

Story

Hello my name is Arlo. I am 4 years old and would be best in a household with no other dogs or children. I came from a previous home where I was abused mom and dad have been working with me to help me overcome my obstacles, but I still can not be around other dogs they make me anxious. I love to cuddle and smell freshly washed hair. I’m very vocal, and think I am a small dog. Fee is negotiable for the right home. I will be neutered and up to date on shots before finding a home.

Story

Meet Rosalie🌹🐾Some dogs enter a room like fireworks.Rosalie enters like a warm lamp turning on.She’s a black and white pittie girl, somewhere around 3 to 4 years old, and squarely in that wonderful middle chapter of life where the puppy chaos has settled and the steady sweetness has bloomed. And bloom she has.Rosalie is beyond sweet. The kind of sweet that leans into you gently. The kind that looks up with soft eyes and says, “Oh good, you’re here.” She loves meeting people and is generous with her kisses, delivered politely and with full sincerity. No dramatic fanfare. Just pure affection.In her kennel, she’s quiet. Calm. Observant. While others are throwing a full Broadway production at the front of their runs, Rosalie waits peacefully for her turn. She doesn’t need to shout to be seen. She simply is.She would thrive in a home that appreciates the softer things. Cozy evenings. Unhurried mornings. A couch that doesn’t mind sharing space with a gentle shadow who just wants to be near her people.If you’re looking for steady companionship, for a dog who meets the world with kindness instead of noise, Rosalie might be your girl.Come meet her. She’s ready to love you very, very well. 💕🐶
