Meet Rooney! Rooney is a 6–7-month-old neutered Jack Russell terrier mix with a BIG personality! He weighs about 16 pounds. This handsome boy is smart, playful and full of energy, and his favorite thing in the world is PEOPLE. He’s a busy little thinker who’ll do best with daily play, walks and some training to keep his mind and body happy. He’s great with other dogs and loves to play and make friends. He is not good with cats, so he needs a home without cats. He’s looking for an active family who’ll have fun with him and help him grow into an amazing adult dog. Great with dogs LOVES people Big, fun personality No cats or chickens, please! Watch his video to see Rooney in action. He’s one fun little guy, and he’s ready to find his forever family! ——— Transport is an additional $185 A few key notes about our Rescue... 1.

Story
Toast got a second chance. Now he just needs the forever family he's been waiting for. You may remember this goofy boy from when he was a tiny puppy. He was adopted, but his family traveled too much, so Toast is back with us—and ready to find his true forever home. Toast is a lovable Lab/Boxer mix who is house-trained, crate-trained, great with kids and dogs, playful, affectionate, and absolutely hilarious. He loves backyard zoomies, wrestling with his dog friends, showing off his toys, and being wherever his people are. Personal space? He's never heard of it. He may be full-sized, but he still thinks he's a 15-pound lap dog! Toast knows "sit," is very food-motivated, and would thrive with an active family who can give him structure, exercise, attention, and lots of love. Whether he's your one-and-only or has a playful dog sibling, Toast just wants his people—someone to follow around, cuddle with, and love with his whole heart.
