Story
This is Tia. She comes with papers and is 5-6 years old. Very smart and was a wonderful dog but hasnt lived with me for 2 years. The people she has been living with did not keep up with her training and I have found out that they were not taking care of her either. She is loving but timid around new people and crowds. She gets scared away easily. Like when kids run toward her or reach their hands out too fast. No history of aggression and does not pee when excited. No medical issues and good with other dogs. When she lived with me, she was also good with cats. She looks lovely with short or long hair but if you shave her, she has some spots that she was born with and one dark spot on her back where she got bit by my moms corgi. I need a new home for her because she is regressing and I worry that aggression would be further down the line and she wont be able to find a happy, suitable home. She needs a family with time for relationship building. She really is a sweet girl

Story
Turret's original owner moved away and left him abandoned. Turret is 3. He is housetrained. He has lived with little kids and does just fine with them. He has not lived with other cats or dogs, but I would guess he'd love another dog friend to play with. He's the nicest dog I've ever seen. I've never once seen him growl, bark, or do anything aggressive in any way. He's very social. He likes to play tug of war and will eagerly run after a chew toy that you throw for him and bring it back to you (though he still hasn't learned the concept of letting the toy go ha). He can be very active, but is also just as content chilling inside next to you. He has no known medical issues and is a slim/fit dog. He is also crate trained. He's always been an inside dog, but has been left outside in a fenced yard to roam during the day from time to time. He's fixed. Turret is genuinely such an amazing dog. If I was in a conducive situation to give him the home he deserves, I'd keep him in a heartbeat.

Story
Hi! I’m Pluto! I’m about 7 months old and I’m the best snuggler you will ever meet. Cuddling is basically my specialty. My favorite place is right next to you, preferably pressed up against you like a warm weighted blanket that loves you back. I just really, really love being close to my people! I live with two doggy friends right now and they are my best buddies. We play together, nap together, and sometimes I follow them around because I just like being part of the squad. I also have a kitten friend here, and I’m very gentle and respectful with cats! I even have another puppy friend who comes over to play sometimes; so yes, I’m a friendly, social guy. I love to run around outside, play fetch, and be silly - but when playtime is done, I transform into the world’s softest cuddle potato. I will curl into your lap, onto your chest, or anywhere you let me be close. One thing to know about me: I really don’t like being left alone in a kennel. It makes me sad and stressed. But if you leave me loose in the house, I'll just wait for you to come back. I’m a good boy, I promise. I just want to feel safe and close to my people. I would love a home where I get lots of love and attention. Another dog friend would be super cool, but mostly, I just want someone who wants me nearby. I’m loyal, gentle, cuddly, playful, and full of love. If you’re looking for a best friend who will adore you with his whole heart, I’m your guy. Will you be my forever?

Story
Hi, my name is Spike! I'm 9-10 years old and a very sweet, perfect little gentleman. I love to snuggle in my comfy bed! I love following my person around the house - as long as there's also a bed involved. My other favorite place is on the couch, covered up with blankets. When food comes around, I do stay pretty close, especially if there are kids that might drop food - staying close means I might be able to help with cleanup. I also enjoy car rides and going to the park. I do well around pretty much everything and everyone, including kids. I have lots of love to give to everyone I meet, including other dogs and cats. I go to the door when I need to go potty and I'll bark when I want back in. I’m just simply the best little dude!

Story
Hello, my name is Mark but my close friends call me “Good Boy!”” I don’t remember what happened, but I am very scared of just about everything. I’m not a lost cause though. I have lived in 2 different foster homes and I spent a lot of time at the hospital after I had hip dysplasia surgery. At each of these places I found someone that I felt safe with pretty quickly. Right now my foster home has other small dogs and I love following them around. They taught me that “do you wanna go outside?” was really fun. I have two nice little people (kiddlings) I live with and they think I’m a very cool guy. They feed me and I listen to them when they ask me to stop licking, I just like to let them know I think they are pretty cool too. Because I am so anxious/scared, I take medicine every single evening. I will probably be taking this my whole life. I’m ok with this because it means I get a treat every time I get my medicine. I would really like to find my forever person. My idea is someone who is a homebody that doesn’t get a lot of different visitors and wants a nice warm doggie head on their lap. Another dog or two would be great and I don’t really mind cats. Please consider giving me a chance to be your “best boy ever”. It will probably take a couple of months before I’m totally comfortable but I promise I will get there eventually.

Story
Sweetie is the definition of a people pleaser puppy. She’s incredibly smart and super easy to train, learning “sit”, “down”, “leave it” and “come” in just the few days she’s been here. She’s down for any and all adventures, as long as she can do them by your side. Checking the mail? She’s got you. Watering the flowers? On it. Farm chores? She’ll lead the way. She’s made best friends with all animals she’s met so far, big dogs, little dogs, cats, chickens, horses, basically if it’s got legs it’s her new best buddy. This girl knows how to PLAY. She loves fetch (bringing the ball all the way back is a work in progress, but her enthusiasm makes up for it), loves her toys, is a pro at puzzle toys and feeders, and enjoys a good run. Once she’s gotten her zoomies out though, she’s more than ready to curl up on the couch to recharge, and will happily hang out for a lazy day of binging Netflix. She’s working really hard on house training, and as long as she gets out every couple hours during the day she’s rock solid. We’re slowly increasing the time between potty breaks and it’s been going well. Need to leave for a while? She’ll crate 4-5 hours no problem and keep herself busy with a lick mat or kong. Right now, much more than that is still just a bit too big of an ask, but I have no doubt she could get there with a bit of consistency and time. She loves her beauty rest, consistently sleeping through the night curled up in bed with her people. Sweetie would be a phenomenal sidekick for anyone, she’s incredibly adaptable and ready to find her forever besties!
