Story
Say hi to Cotton Ball! Cotton Ball is a sweet, 3-year-old Boston Terrier with a heart as soft as her name. This adorable girl is looking for a loving family to call her own!Cotton Ball has lived successfully with other dogs and would likely enjoy having a canine companion, especially with proper introductions. She has a gentle, affectionate personality and is ready to share plenty of love, cuddles, and silly Boston Terrier charm with her forever family.Like every dog, Cotton Ball has a few special care needs. She has a history of anal gland issues, so she will need her anal glands expressed regularly to keep her comfortable and healthy. This is a simple part of her routine care, and her future family should be prepared to stay on top of it.If you`re looking for a loyal, loving companion and are happy to provide a little extra routine care, Cotton Ball could be the perfect addition to your home. She can`t wait to find a family who will love her just as much as she`ll love them!

Story
**58.6lbs** In Foster CareGoldilocks is on the hunt for a home that`s just right for her. This beautiful girl came to us as a stray, and while we don`t know much about her past, she`s been showing us more of her wonderful personality every day. Goldilocks is an active, energetic dog who loves getting outside for long walks and adventures. She`ll thrive with a family that can keep up with her enthusiasm for exploring the world and help her continue learning new skills. Goldilocks is still working on a few things, including getting in and out of vehicles and navigating stairs, so she`ll benefit from patient guidance and positive encouragement as she builds her confidence. Because Goldilocks has a strong prey drive, she is not a good match for a home with cats or other small animals. She has had limited socialization with other dogs and will require slow, thoughtful introductions to potential canine companions.Due to her breed mix and coat type, Goldilocks will require regular grooming to help keep her coat clean, healthy, and comfortable.Goldilocks is looking for an active family willing to invest time in her continued training and help her become the best version of herself. In return, she`ll reward you with loyalty, companionship, and plenty of fun-filled adventures. If you`re looking for a sweet, spirited dog to join you on life`s journey, Goldilocks may be the perfect match.** Goldilocks will be FTA (Foster-To-Adopt) until her spay surgery. This means you can take her home in the meantime, bring her back for her surgery date, and finalize the adoption after!

Meet Lola! **57 lbs** We’ve made Lola a Dandy Dog, meaning her adoption fee has been reduced to help her find the perfect home!Lola is the definition of “go, go, go!” She absolutely lives for fetch and could happily chase a ball, stick, or favorite toy for hours. She’s looking for an active home that can match her enthusiasm for life and provide plenty of exercise, enrichment, and adventure. A fenced backyard would be a huge bonus for this energetic girl!While Lola loves to stay busy, she’s also a total cuddle bug once she’s bonded with her person. She loves curling up to sleep beside you, snuggling with body pillows, and handing out the sweetest hugs. She thrives on routine and is happiest when she knows what to expect.Lola can be unsure around new people, especially men, and may seem reactive at first, particularly if someone surprises her. She needs a patient adopter who will give her the time and space to build trust at her own pace. Once she feels safe, though, she blossoms into a goofy, affectionate companion whose playful personality is impossible not to love.Lola has had both positive and more nervous interactions with other dogs, so she can be selective. She’d prefer being the centre of attention in her new home. Any introductions to other dogs should be done thoughtfully.She’s still working on her manners and would benefit from continued positive reinforcement and consistent training. With structure, patience, and a committed adopter, Lola has all the ingredients to become an incredible best friend.Because Lola is uncomfortable around children, she is looking for an adult-only home with no kids.If you’re an experienced adopter looking for a fun, active dog who will keep you moving by day and snuggle up with you by night, Lola could be the perfect addition to your family.Lola is looking for:* Adult-only home (no children)* Dog-savvy adopter* Patient home willing to build trust* High-energy lifestyle* Dog introductions managed carefully (dog selective/reactive)
