Story
Meet Basil! This beautiful Hound/Terrier mix is about 1 year old, weighs 41 pounds, and is ready to start a brand-new chapter. Basil came to us from another rescue after she was found in poor condition and heavily pregnant. She has since given birth, and we’ve been working hard to help her get healthy and ready for the next stage of her life. Now she’s ready for adoption—and, most importantly, she is ready to never have to give birth again! Basil is a friendly, intelligent, curious, and vocal young lady who has plenty of personality. She’s moderately active and enjoys being out and about, although she’ll let you know if she has an opinion to share! She can be a picky eater, but we think that’s just another part of her charming personality. Basil is open to meeting other dogs, can be cat tested, and we think she’d do well with kids. After starting life as a young mom under difficult circumstances, Basil deserves the chance to simply be a dog—to explore, play, be loved, and have someone take care of her for a change. If you’re ready to give this sweet girl the happy, healthy life she deserves, Basil is ready to meet you! Apply at lvpeaceablekingdom.info.

Story
Meet Ollie! This adorable 2-year-old Chihuahua/Terrier mix weighs just 12 pounds and is a very sweet, gentle, and timid little guy. Ollie’s favorite place to be is in someone’s arms, where he can happily settle in for some serious cuddling. He can be cautious around new people and skittish in unfamiliar situations, so he’ll need an adopter who is willing to give him time to feel comfortable and build confidence. Because he can be nervous and quick to startle, his new family will need to be especially careful around open doors and gates while he’s settling into his new home. Ollie would do best with older children who understand that he doesn’t enjoy fast movements or having his feet handled. Once he trusts you, though, this little lap dog is all about being close to his people. At just 12 pounds and with relatively low-key needs, he could do very well in an apartment as long as he gets his regular walks and attention. Ollie is open to meeting other dogs and can be cat tested. If you’re looking for a little cuddle buddy and have the patience to let a shy dog come out of his shell at his own pace, Ollie may be your guy! Apply at lvpeaceablekingdom.info.

Story
Meet Luna! This adorable 2-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel/Australian Shepherd mix weighs 22 pounds and recently had a litter of adorable puppies. Now that her babies are grown, she’s ready to be the one getting all the attention! She is a friendly, outgoing, playful, and peppy girl who seems genuinely happy about life. Luna is affectionate, eager to please, and wonderful on a leash, making her a great little adventure buddy. She gets along well with other dogs and kids and can be cat tested if needed. Her beautiful coat will require regular grooming to keep her looking and feeling her best, so adopters should be prepared to make grooming part of her routine. If you’re looking for a happy, playful, affectionate companion, Luna would love to meet you! Apply at lvpeaceablekingdom.info.

Story
Meet Luna, a very special 6-year-old French Bulldog who is looking for a very special person. Luna was surrendered by her owner and, unfortunately, has significant medical needs that will require ongoing veterinary care. Her eye is our biggest concern right now, and she also has difficulty breathing. She is overweight and has low energy, so for now she enjoys short, easy walks and plenty of relaxing. Luna will need someone who is financially prepared for the medical care that comes with her breed—this is definitely a girl who needs an adopter with deep pockets and a big heart. We are currently looking for a foster with intent to adopt once Luna has surgery to address her breathing and we have a better understanding of what is happening with her eye. Despite everything she’s dealing with, Luna is an absolute sweetheart. She is very friendly, loves getting pets and scritchies, and would happily spend her days sitting on your lap soaking up attention. She gets along with dogs and kids and can be cat tested if needed. Luna may require more care than your average dog, but she has just as much love to give—and we’re hoping someone will see this sweet girl as worth the extra effort. Apply at lvpeaceablekingdom.info.

Story
Meet Selena! This beautiful 1-year-old American Pit Bull Terrier weighs 46 pounds and is a happy, friendly girl with plenty of energy and enthusiasm for life. Selena came to us from another local rescue, and she’s ready to find a family who can keep up with her busy lifestyle and help her become the best dog she can be. She’s an outgoing, energetic young pup who will need plenty of daily exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep her body and brain happily occupied. She’s still working on her leash manners, so continued training and consistency will help her learn to walk politely alongside her people. Selena seems to do well in a crate and was a champ for her veterinary care, which is always nice to see! She’s good with kids, open to meeting other dogs, and can be cat tested. Selena has all the makings of a fun, active companion for someone who enjoys getting outside and making their dog part of the adventure. If you’re looking for a friendly, energetic best friend who’s ready to join you for walks, play sessions, and plenty of fun, Selena would love to meet you! Apply at lvpeaceablekingdom.info.

Story
Meet Amanda! This adorable 4-year-old Cairn Terrier mix weighs 15 pounds and is one entertaining little character. Amanda came to us as a stray and has been in foster care for a while, where we’ve had the chance to get to know her and see her personality shine. She is active, high-energy, and definitely not afraid to express herself—Amanda is a vocal little girl with plenty to say! Once she trusts someone, she is affectionate and loves being with her people. Amanda is socially selective, however, and she needs an adopter who understands that not every dog is comfortable with everyone and who is willing to create an environment where she can feel secure and successful. Because of her particular needs, Amanda is looking for an adult-only home with no children and no other pets. She’ll do best with someone who appreciates a dog with a big personality, respects her boundaries, and is willing to let trust develop on her terms. In return, you’ll get a funny, energetic, affectionate little companion who will keep you entertained and make sure you’re never wondering what she’s thinking! Apply at lvpeaceablekingdom.info.
