Story

Meet Cheeto – Your Adventure Buddy & Couch Companion(Located on Orcas)Cheeto is a big-hearted, big-smiling red heeler mix with a goofy streak a mile wide. Originally from Texas, where he was found as a stray, this handsome guy has spent the past five years being a loyal, loving friend. His favorite things? Chasing his big red Jolly Ball, cuddling on the couch for a good movie, exploring hiking trails, and playing along the beach (he’ll splash, but swimming isn’t his thing). He’s crate trained, polite in new spaces, and listens well at home.Cheeto is looking for a special home that understands his needs. He can be dog reactive, so no dog parks for this guy, and he prefers not to meet new people while on a leash. His recall isn’t perfect, so a secure yard is ideal. He’ll thrive as the only pet in a calm, adult home—no kids or cats—where he can be the center of attention.With the people he loves, Cheeto is all in—loyal, affectionate, and eager to share his goofy charm. Letting him go is heartbreaking, but it’s the best choice for his future. We’d love for him to stay on the island, but finding the perfect match is what matters most.If you’re looking for a devoted companion to share both your adventures and your quiet nights, Cheeto just might be your guy.

Meet Dexter - a sweet, goofy, and affectionate bloodhound.

Because of this, Dexter will do best with someone who has experience with scent hounds (especially bloodhounds) or is prepared to give him the time, patience, and stimulation that this breed requires. - he LOVES kids & people! - Cuddling is his favorite - Loves tracking a trail of scent - Loves car rides - Loves other dogs - LOVES FOOD AND TREATS - Absolutely amazing family dog - Chill dude - after a long walk/play time with other dogs/ scent tracking, he just wants to eat and snooze.

He does take corrections from other dogs well, but he right back to his mischief moments later. No small animals for this funny fox. He does resource guard toys, especially balls.

He needs a calm and structured home. lago does best when someone is telling him what to do. lago listens like a champ, but he needs a firm handler. hthh has placed iago in a mont long training program to help him become the best and bravest boi he can be. he will be avail for adoption end of january 2026
