Story
UPDATE 8/26:Sadly, only 3 months after her first surgery, Sage had another flare of disc disease and was once again paralyzed. She had a second surgery and is out of pain, but her longterm mobility and continence is still very uncertain and her odds of a full recovery lower this time. She's a sweet tiny little frenchie girl, easy to carry and is cooperative for bladder expression and care, and will be fitted for a wheelchair soon once she's healed from her surgery. She's looking for a foster committed to her care while recovering, and an adopter who will love and care for her unconditionally, where or not she is able to walk. She has some skin allergies also being managed with diet... she got all the worst of the Frenchie genetics it seems like so many of these little ones bred and sold for profit with little thought of their longterm health needs. 5/26Meet Sage! This 2 1/2 year old frenchie was surrendered paralyzed in her hind end, but after emergency surgery she's made an amazing recovery and is up and walking. She's recovering in a loving foster home where she gets along well with the other dogs and cat, has regained continence and is housebroken and crate-trained. She should avoid going down too many stairs, jumping off furniture, and gaining too much weight to prevent additional back injuries from recurring in the future. But otherwise she's a happy healthy girl ready to find her forever home. Please submit an application to meet her by appointment Primary Color: Brindle Age: 2yrs 10mths 2wks

Story
Meet Penny! This adorable tiny bully girl has the shortest legs and widest shoulders, loves everyone she meets and is a super friendly happy girl, cuddly with bursts of excited playful energy. She came from a situation where she wasn't getting proper care and spent most of her time in a small crate. She is about 2 years old and 33lbs full grown. Her adorable short snorty face and squatty frog-like shape means adopters will have to make sure she maintains a healthy weight to help minimize future arthritis and worsening breathing issues, and more indoor playtime in the air conditioning during hot weather. She is still working on housebreaking and will likely need some patience with that and does better with a fenced yard to go out into vs realizing she's supposed to go to the bathroom on leash walks. She is a lot of fun and loves to play with toys and zoom around the play yards but does tire easily especially in the heat. She does like to play with some male dogs but can be a bit bossy and territorial so would be best as an only pet or possibly with the right bigger submissive male in an experienced home. If you love a snorty mushy faced little bulldog and have a nice cool air-conditioned home for her to enjoy this summer, please submit an application to meet her Primary Color: Chocolate Weight: 33 Age: 2yrs 3mths 3wks

Story
Meet Happy the Shiba!He always looks like he's smiling and laughing, but his life wasn't always so joyful. He was frequently allowed to roam the streets in a local inner city, and recently was picked up by animal control limping with several lacerations and a deep wound on his back leg, possibly his by a car. After weeks of treatment he's finally completely healed and ready for a responsible permanent home. Even before his injury, this poor guy suffered in pain for many years due to untreated entropion in both his eyes. You know how painful it is getting an eyelash in your eye? Imagine all of your eyelashes constantly scraping your eyes for you whole life. He's had surgery to correct the issue and is so much more comfortable- no more painful squinting and irritation to his eyes. We think he's about 3-4 years old, around 35lbs, and he's looking for a Shiba-loving home that understands the catlike quirks and escape artist tendencies of the breed and will keep him safe. He is a lot of fun, LOVES playing with toys and bouncing around the play yards now that he's feeling better. He doesn't seem to be fond of other animals he has met and seems to prefer to be the only pet. Please submit an application to meet Happy Primary Color: Tri Color Weight: 32 Age: 4yrs 5mths 1wks

Dice

Rat Terrier

Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Dice is a 6 year old Rat Terrier looking for a special committed foster or adopter. As a result of never being neutered, he ended up with a large perianal hernia that was left untreated for a while. The hernia entrapped his bladder, leaving him in urgent need of emergency surgery and unable to go to the bathroom. Everything is back in place now and he's out of pain, but unfortunately he seemed to have some permanent damage to his bladder causing him to leak small amounts of urine and need a belly band. He does go to the bathroom when taken out otherwise and knows to be housebroken but just doesn't have full control. He's a sweet gentle boy, a little timid at first with new people and doesn't seem to be happy about other dogs. We know he's a tough sell but we hope someone will be willing to roll the dice on our special needs little guy. Please submit an application to meet him Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Age: 6yrs 2mths 3wks

Story
Meet Eliza!This young adult petite border collie mix is looking for a special person to continue her training and socialization. She is very fearful and distrustful of people until she bonds, but once she trusts is a fun high energy walking, hiking and jogging companion with her chosen buddy. She's fearful and avoids other dogs and is looking for a calmer experienced adult home with just one person she can bond to and protect. She loves to catch frisbees and play fetch and is a dog who needs a "job" to keep her mind busy and give her an appropriate outlet for her energy... no couch potatoes for this dog! Eliza is about 35lbs full grown and has the intelligence and energy of a border collie, with a bit more of the independent attitude of a shiba or spitz type breed. *Multiple meets required* Please submit an application for an appointment to meet her Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Age: 6yrs 11mths 3wks
