Story
Meet King 👑 — a playful, loving, and oh-so-boujie pup with a big personality and an even bigger heart. King thrives on attention and affection; he’s a cuddle bug who loves being close to his people just as much as he loves showing off his style in cute outfits. He’s house-trained, though he may have the occasional excited tinkle when he’s extra happy to see you. King has lots of energy and absolutely lives for the dog park, especially when he can run and play with bigger dogs. He’s great with kids, making him a wonderful addition to a family that can match his lively spirit. He would do best in a home with space to play and an owner who has the time and energy to keep up with his fun, active nature. This decision is incredibly hard, so I’m looking for someone kind and understanding who would be open to occasional check-ins or updates. King deserves a loving, stable home where he can continue to shine like the little king he is. 💛

Meet Ayla! Ayla is a charming Corgi/Collie mix with a gentle spirit and a heart full of warmth. With her unique look and expressive eyes, she has a way of drawing people in and making fast friends wherever she goes. As an adult dog, Ayla brings a wonderful balance of energy and calm.
