Story
Bexley is a six year-old female purebred, short legged Jack Russell terrier. She has a companion Douglas, who is a 10 year-old half beagle half Jack Russell. They have been together since Bexley came to the house when she was eight weeks old. It would be great if they could be adopted together. Bexley loves to go on walks and chase squirrels. She is both friendly and timid, while Douglas is more laid-back and food motivated. Both dogs are healthy and up-to-date on shots. If you’re interested, please contact me.

Story
9 year old female Black Lab Mix named Willow we are looking to rehome. I have had her since she was 8 weeks old and she has been loved all of her life. Unfortunately, with our growing family we are having a hard time finding time for her and want her to have the best life for her remaining years. We have a 2 year old daughter and a new born boy now. She hasn't been a issue around either but she does like her space. Our 2 year has a hard time giving her the space she wants and I fear she may end up biting her. I don't believe she ever would, but she has shown signs that she is uncomfortable. Willow is microchipped and has had all vaccines up until this last year. She gets simparica trio each month and has never had any health issues other than an eye infection that was resolved when she was around 3.

Story
Hi there, Kalani is an almost 7lb Pomeranian. He is approximately 8 years old and is currently looking for a new home due to us having our first baby. He does great around her and she loves touching his soft fur but unfortunately since we have to direct most of our time and energy towards the baby he has begun having accidents in the house. We feel if he went to a home where he had constant attention being the only animal he would go back to zero accidents along with being much happier overall. He's a very sweet dog, and loves to cuddle. I would like to be able to keep contact with his next owner as I'm still pretty attached to him, I just need to do what's best for all of us and find him his forever home! This is the perfect dog for you if you're looking for a couch potato that enjoys walks and car rides in your lap a couple times a week! He will come with his crate, beds, blankets, front carrier (like a baby), all of his clothes, harness/leash, bandanas, kong/stuffy, and food.

Story
Tank is almost 8 & Truck almost 6. Their owners are getting divorced & neither of them are taking the dogs. The lady said if no one took them she would put them down. I am fostering them. I have 3 dogs of my own, I need to find a great place for them as soon as possible. This is a very urgent. They have been together their entire lives & are leaning on each other for support, I am praying they can stay together. No known health issues, just some good ole boys needing a new forever home. The previous owners had 3 cats, good with kids. 90 lbs a piece, would like to see them stay together. They are neutered and up to date on shots.

Story
Mickey came to me as a temporary foster, turned long term foster. He is between 8-10 years old. He’s a friendly dog that loves attention. Mickey does well with other dogs but not cats. He is reactive to noises. He is known for chasing squirrels or other animals outside, so he would do best with a fenced in yard and a single family home.

Story
Trigger is a very calm, gentle, and incredibly sweet dog. He loves being outside, enjoys lots of pets, and is happiest just being near his person. From what I’ve seen, he does well with cats and has a loving, easygoing personality. ⚠️ Important: Trigger does not do well with other dogs, so he will need to be the only dog in the home. He originally belonged to my mom, who passed away, so finding him the right home means everything to me. I just don’t feel like I can give him everything he needs right now, and I know he would thrive in a home with: A yard or outdoor space Someone who can give him lots of love and attention ❤️ I’m looking for a truly loving, committed home. I would really appreciate: Occasional updates/photos The possibility of visiting him sometimes (if you’re comfortable) 💲 Small adoption fee applies to ensure a safe and serious home. Please message me with information about your home, lifestyle, and experience with dogs if you’re interested
