Story

Meet Smallz! Smallz is a gorgeous 9-month-old pittie mix who came to live with us after his owner could no longer take care of him. He was the runt of the litter and was picked on, leaving him with some scars on his face. We had hoped to be his forever family, but after consulting with a professional trainer, we have come to understand that he needs a much more experienced dog owner. And after consulting with our cat, it's clear that he needs a home without cats. He displays all the snuggly traits of a pittie, as well as some of the more challenging ones. He needs a seasoned pittie/bully owner and a quiet home life. We live in town, have a cat, and are surrounded by homes with dogs... completely the wrong environment for this boy. When indoors and away from stimulation, he learns quickly and is motivated by play, praise, and treats (to a lesser extent). No resource guarding. He has a ton of love to give and will be very happy to sleep on your bed!

Story

Lou is a 1 year and 9 months old Beagle. Spayed, microchipped and good with kids. She is very smart and has had intermediate training (many commands down and eager to please) still working on a solid recall off leash, but knows “Here! and Come!”. Her worst traits are chewing and digging, and stealing items for a game of chase, but these are all alleviated if you can stay a few steps ahead of her! She loves plush toys, antlers, rawhide and frozen stuffed kongs. She loves playing in water and mud. She loves baths. She is a super love bug and will cuddle all the time if you let her. She loves other dogs and submits immediately, loves to run and play at the dog park (since we live in the city) She is a really amazing dog! It will break our hearts to rehome her but we want her to have the best life possible because we love her so much! We have a crate and many toys, food, bowls, leash, etc. She is up to date on all shots and vaccines and licensed.

Story

Hi! My name is Precious. I am a really adorable girl, and I am just looking for my furever home! My littermates and I were dropped off at a shelter as strays in SC, and no one ever came looking for us :( I am 8 weeks old (born around March3, 2025), weigh about 3 pounds, and I love dogs, cats and kids. I am doing so well with all of them in my foster home in South Carolina! I am spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative, dewormed, current with all vaccines (as appropriate for my age) and on flea and heartworm prevention. I am all ready to be adopted :) My adoption fee is $550, and covers all of my vetting, and includes transport within the next two weeks, if my new family lives in the northeast USA. ***PLEASE DO NOT FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO ADOPT WITHIN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS**** Please visit https://www.apply.daybeforetherainbow.com/ to fill out an adoption application form or email my rescue at taryn@daybeforetherainbow.com!
