Story
Are you ready to fall in love? Meet Sweet Pea! This goofy girl is full of personality! She is a 6 year old Pit Bull mix that weighs 54lbs and is ready to leave paw prints on your heart! Sweet Pea is currently being fostered in Tacoma, Washington and would love to meet you! Sweet Pea had a rough start to life, she was found on the streets eating garbage on the side of the road. Sweet Pea was covered in motor oil, which her previous owners likely assumed would cure her sarcoptic mange and unfortunately, this home remedy caused more harm than good. Sweet Pea had a raging skin infection that affected her eyes, ears and caused permanent scarring to her skin. We also quickly discovered she had heartworms. Luckily, Sweet Pea was rescued and taken into a loving foster home that helped her heal into the gorgeous, goofy girl she is today! Sweet Pea is as sweet as her name implies! This goofy hippo is a happy go lucky girl who just wants to snuggle with her humans! SweetPea has never met a stranger, she loves everyone she meets and loves to mother the kiddos in her nanny dog way. SweetPea is a great mix of energetic and playful but will gladly crash out on the couch with you for snuggles. This girl absolutely LOVES to give kisses, so it's imperative that you indulge her once and a while! She is medium energy, with short bursts of playfulness followed by epic naps and snuggle time. She loves to sleep in bed, although she is a bed hog and steals the covers. SweetPea loves car rides, puppy lattes, meeting new people, long walks on the beach and has recently discovered that she loves the snow! She would make an excellent adventure buddy! This sassy girl is diva at times and does best with other non-reactive, playful dogs. SweetPea can get overwhelmed around multiple dogs and would do best in a home with a mellow dog buddy, or as on only dog where she can soak up all of your attention. House trained, kennel trained and excellent on a leash, SweetPea is a well mannered girl who always wants to learn. She is very food motivated and was also clicker trained by her foster mom. SweetPea loves enrichment toys, such as a Kong and nylabone. She loves any kind of toy and will keep herself busy for hours taking the toys in and out of the toy bin! SweetPea is a healthy happy girl, although she does need medicated baths once a month. She is spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative and fully vaccinated.

Story
Meet Michael! This adorable blue eyed hunk is 9 weeks old and searching for the perfect home! Michael is a gorgeous boy, and has a very big personality! He loves to cuddle just as much as he loves to romp around with his siblings in the yard. He would make an amazing family dog to grow up with. These adorable puppies from the Office Litter were abandoned in a Walmart parking lot in Texas and were scooped up by a Good Samaritan. These gorgeous puppies recently transported from Texas and are ready to find the perfect home to love them forever! These gorgeous pups are thought to be Hound and Shepherd mixed, and will likely be around 50lbs full grown. To apply to meet one of the office litter, fill out an app at the link below: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/DDRS/Dog These puppies have a very docile and sweet temperament, which is very important for the size they will be when full grown! We estimate that these puppies will grow up to be around 50-60lbs of full grown active dogs once they are adults. This litter has such an amazingly friendly temperament. They warm up quickly to new people and other dogs. They are quite happy, playful puppies and are at the perfect age to learn to love living in a home environment with cats, kids and older pups already established in a home. The ideal home would start to work with these puppies on crate training, potty training and leash training as soon as possible. They would thrive in a home with an older, confident dog to show them the ropes! They will require plenty of confidence building through positive reinforcement and exposure to positive experiences with new people and places to grow into happy, balanced pups. These puppies have grown so much in their foster home! They are friendly and energetic as puppies tend to be, and love to roughhouse with other dogs in the home. These pups have never met a stranger and love people. They will follow you around and ask for your love and constant attention. What amazing family dogs they will be! These playful, hilarious pups are happy and active. They would love to be your outdoor activity partner on hikes, long walks, or hanging out at the dog park and interacting with other pups. The Office Litter has received 2 rounds of puppy boosters and deworming. They will be available for adoption through our spay/neuter program and fixed at 6 months old by our rescue vet in Seattle.

Story
Meet Callisto, the one-year-old Pharaoh Hound mix who overcame early challenges to become a smart, energetic, and sweet companion. Callisto was just three months old when she was abandoned at a shelter with her litter of 12 siblings. Despite being a playful and affectionate puppy, she and her final four siblings were at high risk of being euthanized due to a lack of interest. Thankfully, Callisto was saved from that fate and has since blossomed into a loving and intelligent young dog. She's always eager to learn and explore, with a natural curiosity and a boundless enthusiasm for life. Her energy and athleticism make her a perfect match for an active family, and she thrives on exercise and outdoor adventures. Despite her difficult start in life, Callisto is a resilient and optimistic dog, with a huge heart. She loves nothing more than cuddling up with her human family or playing with her favorite toys. Her sweet nature and gentle disposition make her a great companion for children and other animals, and she's always happy to make new friends. In short, Callisto is a survivor and a shining example of the resilience and spirit of dogs. With her intelligence, energy, and sweet personality, she's sure to bring joy and companionship to any family lucky enough to have her. So if you're looking for a loyal, loving, and active companion, Callisto may be the perfect dog for you.

Story
Introducing Dottie, a delightful 2-year-old pocket pittie with a playful personality, one bright blue eye, and an adorable pittie smile. Dottie is currently in foster care in the greater Seattle area and is eager to meet potential adopters. If you think she might be the perfect fit for your family, please fill out an application at https://www.doggedly.org/adoption-app. Dottie's journey began when a kind-hearted individual found her wandering the streets of Texas. She was taken in by Doggedly and later placed in a foster home in Houston, where she blossomed. Now, Dottie is excited to find her forever home in the Pacific Northwest. This high-energy pup loves to run and play, making her an ideal match for an active person that enjoys outdoor activities such as hiking, daily walks, and adventures. Dottie is a lot of fun and particularly enjoys cooling off on hot days with a hose. She's also a big fan of snuggling and would love to cuddle up with her human in bed or relax on the couch with a bone. Additionally, Dottie has a curious nature and loves exploring, so having a secure yard with durable fencing is essential. Dottie is an intelligent girl and loves to self-soothe with a chew toy and a soft bed. She loves to chew, which is an essential part of her daily self care ritual. Dottie also loves a structured daily routine that keeps her mentally engaged. This super smart girl knows when it's time to go on walks and have breakfast, and will gladly be your puppy alarm clock to break up the monotony of your day! Once she gets her exercise, Dottie loves to chill. She would love to share your bed or take over your couch, but she is also kennel trained. In a previous foster home, Dottie thrived alongside two small dogs, kids, and a senior cat. Dottie does well with other dogs with proper introductions once she expends her energy, and is eager to make friends. She is an athletic dog and does have a drive and loves to chase or run. She would thrive in a home with an active, but laidback male companion, but would also love to be an only dog. Due to her compact size, she would also do well in an apartment with daily walks throughout the day. Dottie is strong but is great on a leash. She enjoys her walks and is harness trained. What are you waiting for? Snatch up the dog of your dreams today! Dottie is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to steal your heart!
