Story
My dog midori is a beautiful, happy, lovable rescue puppy from Virginia. She is now almost 3 years old loves to snuggle up in a blanket, depending on what’s on the tv she will watch with you and is absolutely obsessed with any kind of ball. We love Midori so much but as a single mom of two I can no longer continue to care for her in the way she needs and deserves.

Story
Hi! I'm Tootie, a 1.5-year-old female hound mix. I'm about 43 pounds and am up to date on all my vaccinations. I am playful and affectionate. I love giving kisses to everyone I meet! I'm great with dogs and love going to the dog park and daycare. I'd love to have another dog to play with me in my new house, but would be fine alone as long as you're around to play with me. My previous family loved me very much, but unfortunately I didn't get along well with their kitten. As a hound, I'm very prey-driven and like to chase cats and small animals. They're heartbroken to see me go but know I deserve a home where I can be my happy-go-lucky self! I hope it won't be long before I find my forever family. I'm available through Kitty Connection in Medford.

Story
My name is Kronos and I am a 2 1/2 year-old black nose/mountain Curr male. I’m a very friendly and happy-go-lucky guy when I’m comfortable in my surroundings. I have a great time playing with other dogs in the doggie park. I am a lovable and affectionate dog to my people and protective of them as well. I love their love and affection, I love going out on walks and being involved in outside activities. I’m a little overweight, so I need to get a lot more outside activity into my schedule. My dad just doesn’t have the time anymore to give me the activity and time that I need. I love to go on car rides because I am timid, meeting new people I am best with a dog experienced individual. I am available through Kitty Connection in Medford.

Story
We got Tilly as a rescue a while back when we had a huge house with a big yard. Now we live in a small apartment and it's just not working out as we hoped. She loves people but takes a little while to warm up to dogs if she's on-leash. Great inside the fence at dog parks!

Story
Luna was taken off the hands of a bad family, and i decided to take her in and take care of her for the time being. She is the sweetest dog and loves everyone and everything, super curious, and great companion. She needs training and time, something i cannot give her at the moment as i have more urgent responsibilities. She is a pure bred husky, female, 37 lbs and 7 months old. I am just asking for the money i used to get her vaccines.
