🌸 BLOSSOM — YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND 🌸Blossom is a 8-year-old Terrier mix with the sweetest soul and the best “couch potato” skills around.

Story
🌸 Meet Nia — the Little Heart Who Just Needs Time 🌸Nia is a petite 1-year-old mixed-breed sweetheart who came to us from an accidental litter, and because she didn’t get much early socialization, the big world is still a pretty scary place for her. Meeting new people is hard, new environments are overwhelming, and she’s looking for someone who understands that trust takes time.But here’s the beautiful part: once Nia lets you in, she loves you with her whole heart.She becomes your shadow, your cheerleader, your snuggle buddy, and your very best friend.Nia is fully vetted, young, smart, and so ready to bloom — she just needs a patient, gentle human who can help her build confidence at her own pace. A quiet home, a calm routine, and someone who celebrates small wins will help her shine.If you’re the kind of person who finds joy in helping a fearful dog feel safe, Nia will repay you with loyalty like no other. She’s not the dog who runs to new people… but she is the dog who will love you deeply once she knows she can.Give her time, give her patience — and she’ll give you her whole heart. 🖤An adoption application can be filled out on the DHS website https://www.dekalbhumanesociety.org/adopt.

Story
🥒 Hi. It’s me. Pickles. 🐾Yes, that Pickles. No, I am not sour.I’m a 2-year-old terrier/shepherd mix with a very fancy brindle coat and a personality that unfolds like a surprise gift. 🎁 I’ll be honest—I’m a little reserved at first. New people, new places… I like to observe. Judge quietly. Decide if you pass the vibe check.But once I do? Ohhhh buddy.✨ Play mode: ACTIVATED. ✨Toys are my love language. Toss one, squeak one, tug one—I transform into a playful, happy goof who forgets I was ever “shy.” That’s the real me. It just takes a minute.📋 Important Pickles Facts:✔️ Spayed✔️ Vaccinated✔️ Sweet girl with a soft heart✔️ Worth the wait (trust me)If you’re patient, kind, and don’t mind letting me warm up at my own pace, I think we could be something really special.So… want to come meet me and see if I choose you?An adoption application can be filled out on the DHS website https://www.dekalbhumanesociety.org/adopt.
