Story
Stink will be 5 years old in November. He is smart, playful, energetic, but also loves to cuddle. And despite his name he doesn’t actually stink lol. I got him in college and due to life circumstances I need to move back home and am unable to bring him with me. I would love for him to go to a kind and caring home as he is a great dog.

Story
Bella is an 8-year-old Yorkshire Terrier (turning 9 in November). She’s a gentle, friendly girl who can be a little shy at first, but blossoms with love and patience. She came from the same loving home with her sisters, Bunny and Belka. They would absolutely love to stay together if the right family comes along. If not, they can be adopted separately into loving homes. Preference will be to families who will adopt them together or at least a pair. ✅ House trained ✅ Vaccinated ✅ Overall very healthy Through no fault of their own, their owner is no longer able to care for them. Now they’re hoping for one more chapter filled with love, soft beds, and a family to call their own. If you’re ready to open your heart to a deserving senior—or better yet, give these lifelong companions the chance to stay together—please apply through our website.

Story
🐾 Meet Roxie! 🐾 She is currently with another rescue, but when they needed help with a GSD- we couldn’t say no ❤️ Roxie is a 1.5-year-old female German Shepherd who is spayed, up to date on vaccines, housebroken, and crate trained. She’s a high-energy girl who is social and friendly with people and would thrive with someone ready to give her the training, structure, and exercise she needs to become the best dog she can be! She's eager to please, which will make training a breeze. Roxie has a high prey drive and can be dog selective, so she is looking for a home where she can be the only pet. Unfortunately Roxie is currently in boarding which is no place for a young shepherd. She is looking to say goodbye to boarding ASAP so a timely placement is so important! Interested in Roxie? Contact JDR directly for more information or complete an adoption application via our website. Any potential adopters/applications for Roxie will be shared with the rescue that reached out to us and currently has Roxie. JDR volunteers met with Roxie, temperament tested/evaluated her, so we can help answer any questions! Let’s help this beautiful girl find the right home! 🐾

Story
Bunny is an 6 year-old Yorkshire Terrier. She’s a gentle, friendly girl who can be a little shy at first, but blossoms with love and patience. She came from the same loving home with her sisters, Bunny and Belka. They would absolutely love to stay together if the right family comes along. If not, they can be adopted separately into loving homes. Preference will be to families who will adopt them together or at least a pair. ✅ House trained ✅ Vaccinated Bunny was born with ankylosis in both back legs (straight legs) but it doesn’t affect her, she still hops around and jumps on and off the couch. She also has occasional head tremors, but she is still a super loving and deserving girl. Through no fault of their own, their owner is no longer able to care for them. Now they’re hoping for one more chapter filled with love, soft beds, and a family to call their own.
