Story
My name is Rowen! A 2.5 -year-old Bochi. My family loves me very much, but they're moving and can't give me the outdoor space I need. They care about me so much, they are hoping to find me a new home. I'm a fun, spunky girl with lots of personality and a Boston girl bork! I love car rides, being outside, playing games like fetch or tug-of-war. If you have a yard where I can run around and burn off some of my energy, that would make me so happy. I know basic commands like sit, lay down, and stay. I'm also very motivated by treats (who is'nt?), so sometimes I just like to make sure the reward is part of the deal before I give my best performance. I am crate trained and find my crate really cozy.I love being close to my person. Some may call me a Velcro dog; I love to sit in laps, cuddle, and be near you as much as possible.If you let me sleep in bed with you, I would think I hit the jackpot! My family wants to give me the life I deserve, even if it isn't with them.

Story
He was left with us around 4/5 years ago, we have tried our best to provide a good enviorment for him, but he deserves more. He's a good dog, very sweet and energetic. He deserves to go to a family who he will have his own human and to feel like part of the pack, that is what he wants ultimately, we are only able to provide him with food and shelter and although my parents have taken it on themselves to care for him, they work way to much to adequately give him the attention he needs. Which is why I've taken it on myself to try and find him a new home. If your looking for a doggo that will give the unconditional love can be easily trained he listens well he's definitely the pooch for you. He is definitely the kind of dog that has to have his stuffed animal that he takes care of and enjoys cuddles lol.

Story
A friend gave Luna to me because he is having health issues. I'm not sure how old she is. Luna grew up around a family with kids and had a fenced yard so, I thing that would be the best for her. She is a great dog, house trained, and protective. I live alone and I'm not home enough to have a dog right now. She deserves better. My objective is to find her a good home where she has space for a happy life.

Story
Meet Mandy - 30 pounds - 9 years old - Labradoodle - no small children - Adoption Fee $325 - Mandy is a female Labradoodle with a heart full of love and a gentle soul to match. This sweet mini Labradoodle absolutely loves to cuddle. If you are looking for a devoted companion who will happily curl up beside you on the couch, Mandy is your girl. She also enjoys romping around the backyard, chasing a ball, and soaking up the sunshine before coming inside for hugs. Mandy would thrive in a calm, quiet home. Her anxiety can be triggered by small children or a noisy household, so she is hoping to find a peaceful environment where she can truly relax and feel safe. She is used to female dogs and would do best either as an only dog or with a very docile canine companion. She is healthy, loving, and ready to spend her golden years being a very best friend to her owner. If you are looking for a loyal shadow with the softest curls and the biggest heart, Mandy may be the perfect match.

Story
Annie at a Glance 5 years old - 65 lbs - Red Heeler - Medium energy - House-trained - Must be an only dog Adoption fee: $50 ----- My name is Annie and I have been patiently waiting at FairyTails Pet Adoptions for my very own forever family. This spring, while everyone is hunting for eggs and filling baskets with goodies, I am just hoping someone picks me. My Easter basket would be complete with a cozy couch, a soft blanket, and a family who wants me right by their side. One of my FairyTails friends took me home for a little sleepover, and guess what? I was egg-cellent! I played in the yard, came inside and relaxed on the couch with my chew stick, slept through the night uncrated without a peep, and had zero accidents. I even went out to a dog-friendly brewery where I politely accepted treats and charmed everyone I met. I am a medium-energy sweetheart who loves scratches, attention, and being near my people. I need to be an only dog in my new home. I just really love soaking up all the affection and giving it right back. Easter Bunny, if you know a family looking for a loyal best friend, a couch snuggler, and a constant companion, please hop them my way. I promise to love them more than all the jellybeans in the basket. ⸻ 📩 Ready to make Annie’s spring wish come true?
