Story
Tango is a gentle 9-year-old terrier mix weighing just 12 pounds, with a heart that craves love and connection—on his own terms. He adores attention and affection and is happiest when his person sits nearby, talks to him, and showers him with gentle love. While he isn’t a lapdog, Tango enjoys being close and feeling included. Tango also appreciates his independence and likes having time to himself. He’s perfectly content relaxing quietly on his own, making him a great match for a calm household that respects his need for personal space. He enjoys life’s simple pleasures: going outside and laying in the sun, chewing on bully sticks and other chewies, and playing with toys—especially ones that make noise or have squeakers. Tango would enjoy regular walks and, as long as he’s walked frequently and monitored on a leash, he does not require a fenced yard. He should not be left unsupervised outside. Tango gets along well with other dogs, particularly those his own size, and would do well in a home with or without other dogs. He’s happy sharing space but doesn’t demand constant interaction. At night, Tango snuggles into his comfy doggie bed in his foster mom’s bedroom and sleeps quietly through the night. While other dogs may climb into the big bed, Tango prefers his own cozy spot—comforted simply by knowing his person is nearby. With his peaceful temperament, gentle affection, and independent streak, Tango would thrive in a quiet, loving home where companionship is balanced with respect for his space. If you’re looking for a sweet senior dog who offers calm devotion without being clingy, Tango is ready to find his forever home. Tango is neutered, up to date on all his vaccinations, is heartworm negative and on heartworm preventative. He’s had a dental, is microchipped and dewormed. Tango’s adoption fee is $300. Out of state adopters are responsible for arranging transport. WE DO NOT SHIP DOGS. If you're looking for a very sweet and lovable little guy to join your family, please fill out an application on AAP’s website.

Story
Yes, those ears really are that big!!!! Sadie Rose is a 6-month-old tiny little girl with a huge personality to match those adorable ears. She is puppy through and through! This sweet girl is full of energy, loves playtime, and is always ready for fun. Whether she’s chasing toys, zooming around the yard, or making new furry friends, Sadie brings joy everywhere she goes. After she’s gotten her playtime in, Sadie is more than happy to curl up beside you — preferably right in your lap for cuddle time on the couch. She’s the perfect mix of playful and affectionate. Sadie Rose is also crate trained and does well settling down in her own space. She has such a loving personality and is ready to find a family that will adore her just as much as she’ll adore them. Sadie Rose will not be placed in a home with young children due to her tiny nature. A home with another young playful dog is perfect for Sadie Rose. Sadie Rose is spayed, up to date on all vaccines, on heart worm preventative, and microchipped. Sadie Rose’s adoption fee is $450.00

Story
Patti is a 5-year-old Shih Tzu with a sweet but shy personality who will need time and patience to warm up. She came from a puppy mill and is just beginning to learn what life in a loving home is all about. Patti is not a snuggly lap girl but is very content to be close by her people getting pets and scratches on her terms. Patti has done well with her potty skills as long as she has a consistent routine. She walks fairly well on a leash and enjoys going out for short strolls around the neighborhood. Patti will need a calm adult only home with people who are gentle and allow her to move at her own pace. Another confident dog in the home to help her learn the ropes of “dogging” would be best for her. Patti loves to explore and sunbath in the great outdoors and will require a secure fenced yard so she can do this safely. With time, love, and understanding, Patti has all the potential to become a loyal and loving companion. Patti is spayed, up to date on all vaccines, had a dental, heart worm negative and on heartworm preventative, de-wormed, and microchipped. Patti’s adoption fee is $350.00.

Story
Rodney is a sweet puppy with a gentle, easygoing personality. This adventurous little guy isn't afraid to try new things and is always eager to explore the world around him. He has already learned how to navigate the yard, walk up and down steps, and play with his foster dog siblings. Rodney loves his toys and enjoys chewing on bully sticks when it's time to relax. So far, he's been a fairly quiet puppy, only barking occasionally. Like most puppies, he enjoys being close to his people, but he settles down easily and sleeps peacefully next to his foster mom. With his calm demeanor, Rodney strikes a wonderful balance between playtime and cuddle time. He loves exploring and having fun, but he's just as happy relaxing with his foster family. His potty training is progressing very well, and he seems to be catching on quickly. Rodney is looking for a loving family ready to help him continue learning and growing. In return, he'll bring plenty of love, companionship, and puppy charm to his forever home! Rodney may be the perfect match for you! Rodney is neutered, up to date on all vaccines, on heart worm preventative, and microchipped. Rodney’s adoption fee is $400.00

Story
Zoey is a 5-year-old Shih-Tzu/Terrier mix. She is a social and sweet little girl. Zoey loves attention and seems to like the company of everyone. A house with adults and/or dog savvy kids ages eight and up would be fine for her. Zoey does well with other dogs and enjoys a game of chase with them in the yard, but does not like rough and tumble play. She also seems to do well with confident cats. She would probably not do well with smaller critters (guinea pigs, birds) as she wants to chase them. Zoey walks well on a leash and her potty training is going very well. She has some very endearing traits including smiling when she is happy and when she wants attention (seriously… she smiles) and she will watch the television and is very curious when she hears/sees a dog on the TV. Zoey is a little energetic during car rides (wanting to look out ALL the car windows) so a safety harness or crate would be best during car travel. She can be a bit vocal so apartment life would probably not be a good fit for her. While a home with a fenced yard would be wonderful, it is not a requirement as long as she gets regular walks and exercise. Zoey is spayed, had a dental, up to date on all vaccines, heart worm negative and on heart worm preventative, and microchipped. Zoey’s adoption fee is $350.00

Story
Sadie is an adorable 5 year old yorkie mix. She was rescued from a hording house that held 40 other dogs and she never had an opportunity to learn how to dog. Meals were never regularly provided, there were no opportunities to learn about potty training, and there was NO socialization. She was left to fend for herself. As such, Sadie tends to be reactive when uncomfortable and needs a very special home. Sadie needs a quiet home with a dog savvy female owner. She will do best as an only dog. Sadie will bond with her person, but she needs some time to learn to trust. We have found that she needs about a week to adjust to a new person. When she is comfortable, Sadie is an absolute doll and is completely devoted to her person. She has a darling personality and gives the best kisses. While Sadie can walk on a leash she will not potty while walking. Therefore, she is looking for a home with a secure fenced yard. Sadie has the potential to be a wonderful companion and we are hopeful that her perfect home is out there. Sadie is spayed, up to date on all vaccines, heart worm negative and on heartworm preventative, had a dental, and microchipped. Sadie’s adoption fee is $350.00.
