Story
Nacho is a 4-year-old F1 Goldendoodle who takes after his Golden Retriever mom in both looks and temperament. He’s incredibly loving, thrives on attention, and will happily soak up belly rubs for as long as you’re willing to give them. Nacho enjoys daily walks, being outdoors, and spending time near his people—he’s the kind of dog who wants to be part of the family. He does best in a home where he gets consistent interaction and activity. Nacho can get a bit anxious in the car, so he may need patience and gradual exposure there. With the right environment, he’s a loyal, affectionate companion who will bring a lot of warmth and personality into a home.

Story
I adopted Sally as a puppy. She is now 4 years old, and weighs 14 lbs. I trained her to go potty on a pee pad. She is loving and sweet. She is definitely a dog who is faithful to her owner. Sally follows me everywhere. She has low energy, but loves her walks. Sally is looking for a kind, and heartfelt owner who stays home most of the time. Sally is a well taken care of dog. She's current on her shots and has had her teeth cleaned twice in the past 2 years. I've groomed her almost every 2 weeks since she was a puppy, so she does well at the groomer. Sally is loved by many. She deserves an owner who will be home.

Story
Meet Mama Zena — The Playful, Loving Shepherd Mix Zena is a gorgeous 1–2 year old shepherd mix, weighing about 45 lbs, with a heart as big as her energy. She is smart, eager to please, and already has some great basics down — she’s potty trained, leash trained, knows “sit” and “lay down,” and has excellent recall. This fun-loving girl is all about fetch, squeaky toys, and anything that bounces. After a good play session, she turns into a total snuggle bug who wants nothing more than to curl up with her humans. Zena is currently in foster care with one of her daughters and a senior dog, and she plays beautifully with both. She has shown a little bit of resource guarding, but with consistency, structure, and reassurance, she continues to improve every day. Zena would thrive in an active home that’s ready for adventure, training, and lots of love. She’s sweet, smart, and so ready for her forever family. If you're looking for a playful companion with a loyal heart, Mama Zena is your girl.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 7, 2026, 4:10 pm

Story
Meet the Big Hunk a sweet treat little treat from the Candy Bar Litter! This adorable pup and four siblings came into the world with a tough start — their brave mama was tragically hit by a car. Thankfully, a kind-hearted Good Samaritan found the babies and made sure they were safe. From there, they made the journey from New Mexico to Utah in search of loving forever homes. Big Hunk may have had a rough start in life but you’d never know it by that happy tail and gentle spirit. He’s full of puppy joy — belly rubs, zoomies, and snuggles are his specialties. Like all young pups, he’s learning the ropes of life, and his wonderful foster family is helping him discover just how amazing people can be. He’s wiggly, sweet, and adores attention — the kind of puppy who melts into your arms and makes every day brighter. While we’re still waiting for her Embark DNA results (thanks to our friends at Ollie Pet Food!), we already know one thing for sure: he is 100% delightful. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion to fill your home with joy, laughter, and puppy kisses, this Big Hunk may be your perfect match. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 7, 2026, 4:10 pm
