Story
I have this male who’s very attached to his female partner. They are both available and I would prefer that they go to the same home. I think he would do much better with his companion with him . I really would rather not split them up at all.

Story
Looking to rehome the sweetest little Pomsky girl. She’s 1 rear old, playful, energetic, affectionate, and absolutely loves her belly rubs. She has a big personality and would make a great companion for the right family. She has a tendency to escape on a daily and I just can’t figure out why so it’s best she thrives in a home with a secure fenced yard and an owner who can keep up with her active personality. I want to make sure she goes to a loving, responsible home where she gets the care she deserves.

Mochi is a 2-year-old bundle of love who melts hearts wherever he goes. He absolutely adores cuddling and snuggles, and he is happiest when he is close to someone who will give him warmth, comfort, and affection. Mochi is such an adorable, sweet, and loving pet, and he deserves a home where he will be cherished, adored, and treated like part of the family. He will bring so much love and joy to the right home.

Story
Ruby is a year and a half old, and is full of joy and love! She loves going for walks and playing tug of war in the yard, she learns new commands easily, and her favorite toys are anything that goes "squeak"! Ruby is mostly really chill inside and likes watching TV with the family, or napping during the day. She loves going on hiking trails in the woods. She absolutely loves to play tug of war and keep away. And she's so polite about not begging for food!Her current family took her in on a trial basis, but unfortunately Ruby and the cats just can't get along. Ruby would be an excellent dog in a home that has no other pets. She's incredibly sweet, a great companion, and has a lot of love to give.The adoption fee goes towards the spay surgery and basic vaccines. We are looking for the perfect and final home for her. She has so much love to give and deserves to be with a family who can give her a peaceful and loving home!

Story
This is Luna. She is a sweet girl with a big heart. She may have a little extra weight on her but that just means there’s more of her to love. She absolutely loves belly rubs and sometimes likes being around people. She’s just a loving gentle girl looking for someone who will spoil her with cuddles and love.
