Story
Hi, I’m Solana! I’m an affectionate girl who loves being close to my people. My foster family says I’m incredibly loving, loyal, and full of personality. I’ve got a playful side too, and I’m always up for a game of tug-of-war, chase, or chewing on my favorite toys (especially if treats are involved!). I’m still learning to feel safe around new people and dogs, so I’ll need a patient home that can help me keep building confidence. I do best with a calm introduction to visitors and I’ve been making progress with regular walks. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will stick by your side, I might be your perfect match.

Brie is a gentle and loving dog, which loves humans big and small. She enjoys having visitors over or visit people. Her most favorite thing is car rides! She needs a person which understands her fears about loud noises, thunderstorms and other dogs. She walks a bit, not very far and likes to observe the environment. She takes naps during the day and sleeps all night.

Story
Meet Sonnet — a perfectly fun-sized goofball with a big personality! This little peanut is all about spending time with her people and romping around with her foster pup friends. With her perfectly petite size, she’s just right for cuddling on the couch after a day of play. Sonnet would thrive in a home with a canine companion and plenty of opportunities to stretch her legs—whether that’s daily walks or a fenced yard to explore. She’s still young and learning the ropes, currently working on potty and crate training, but she’s already shining in so many ways. She walks beautifully on a leash, knows her basic commands, and happily heads into her kennel at mealtime like a pro. This sweet girl is the ideal match for adventure seekers, generous treat dispensers, and anyone looking for a loyal little love bug who simply wants to be by your side. If you’re ready for a best friend who brings energy, affection, and a whole lot of heart, Sonnet is ready to meet you!
