Story

Let me introduce the playful energetic Cuddles. She is a poodle and shitzu mix. I adopted her from the aspca in 2015. Cuddles is now 10 but still acts like a puppy 🤗. She got her name because she loves to be cuddled and jumps on you to getsome love. She gets very excited to see you when you come home. I have another dog in the home, and my husband recently had a stroke. At this time, I am just not able to give Cuddles the attention that she needs and keep up the bills and two dogs. Cuddles love children and has gotten a long with a cat previously in the past. I am seeking anyone who can give my cuddles attention and a loving home. I am in an apartment and Cuddles can be a bit barky when hearing people walking pass by the door. She is up to date on her Rabies, Bordetella and DHPP. She has also recieved a shot for allergies. If you need company or your children would like to spread their love to Cuddles please reach out. Looking for a family to have not only fun but love on her💕.

I bought Cooper at a Pet Store in Webster, MA when he was 5 months old in 2013. Cooper has a lot of energy and absolutely loves to be petted. He is a good listener but does love to chase squirrels, bunnies or dear. He needs to be leashed. He is really great with children.

Story

In October 2025, I found Choco abandoned in Louisiana without food or water. I cared for him and trained him while searching for his owner. We brought him to Virginia, but we live in an apartment, and he needs more space. Choco is friendly, obedient, and knows commands like giving his paw and waiting to eat. He’s up to date on vaccines. I travel often and can’t give him the time he deserves. He needs a loving, active family who will give him space, attention, and lots of love.

Story

I have had Sasha since she was 4 months old. She was bought at a pet store in Webster, Massachusetts in 2012. She is a great loving dog but is pretty independent. She gets along very well with other dogs and cats. Her eyesight and hearing has started to diminish but it doesn't seem to slow her down. Her "brother" Cooper is a year younger than her and she follows his lead.

Maizie

Hound (Unknown Type)

Female, Adult

Yorktown, VA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

I rescued Maizie from a local shelter. She had been there for more than two months. She was so happy to leave that place. She’s young and has a lot of energy and didn’t appear to have any training. I’ve been working with her and she has made a lot of improvements. She is very sweet and wants to snuggle and be with her human. One of my dogs is big and playful and that has created stress for Maizie. She is protective of toys/chews but has shown improvement in that area. She is a jumper and counter surfer. She has really improved, but you have to correct her. She is finally responding to that. One of the big issues is she can climb my chain linked fence. She runs around the neighborhood, but then returns in her own time. I have been using an e-collar to correct. I have a memory foam bed, e collar and toys for her.

Poupee, French for doll, is a sweet, loving 13lb little girl. Her previous owner passed away after having her since she was a pup. She turned 5 in December and has plenty of spunk left. She's great on a leash, loves car rides and wants to be by your side all the time. She's good with other dogs her size. She would do best in a home where the owner is home most the time. No small kids please, she's fragile.
