Story
Markie is a cute little guy with a big attitude and seems to love everyone.  He came in with several other small dogs and seems to have had a rough time recently based on hair condition etc,,, but whatever happened it didn't adversely affect his attitude toward humans or other small dogs.  he's a happy go lucky little fella.  He had the energy of a youngster but our vet thinks he's likely about 10 years old None of  this group is the least bit interested in sitting quietly for photos,,, so please excuse the poor results of our recent photo shoot.  July 20, 2026, 12:13 am

Story
,,,, Molly is the typical cream or light blond Peke.  Her coat looked like she's had it rough for awhile, but that has improved with time and good food.  And she loves food.   She's a real sweet girl who came to us blind and after checking with our vet, it was determined that while she had no vision, her eyes weren't bothering her at all, so we just left well enough alone. She adapts well to new surroundings and has been remarkable in her ability to wander around amongst other small dogs and just find her way without any problem.  Blindness is totally different for dogs than we humans think it would be,,,, vision isn't the sense they depend on most... She has developed a heighten sense of smell I guess,,, and can notice a hot dog treat at quite a distance! March 12, 2026, 12:29 pm

Story
Meet Syd — your future little shadow with a story of resilience 💛 Syd is an approximately 5-year-old dachshund mix who joined rescue just a few weeks ago, and he’s already beginning to show us the incredible dog he’s meant to be. When he first arrived, Syd was scared of the world and unsure of people—but beneath that fear, we saw something special… and we were right. Just days ago, Syd allowed his very first gentle pets. He wasn’t quite convinced yet—but he’s trying, and that’s what makes him so easy to root for. Each day, he’s getting a little braver, a little softer, and a little more curious about the love around him. These days, you’ll find Syd quietly exploring the house or enjoying his new favorite hobby: stretching out for cozy naps on the couch like he’s been doing it forever. It’s in these small moments that his personality starts to shine. Syd spent his entire life in a puppy mill, so everything about being a dog in a home is brand new to him. Because of this, he’s not quite ready for adoption just yet. Over the coming months, we’ll be helping him learn all the basics—house training, leash walking, and most importantly, how to trust and feel safe. His journey is just beginning, and it’s going to be a beautiful one to watch. We can’t wait to share his progress as he grows into the happy, confident little dog we know he can be. Stay tuned… Syd’s best days are still ahead 🐾
