Story
Peanut is 10 years old but acts like a puppy still. Shes very timid with other animals and some people as she is only 4.5 pounds but she is not aggressive at all and warms up quickly to people. Shes been around lots of other animals but it does take her awhile to warm up to them. She loves to sleep on the back of the couch, and loves attention. She does lots of tricks but her favorite is to play dead when “shot”. She loves older kids but she usually hides from babies and toddlers because she’s tiny and kids are typically not very gentle with her. I got peanut when she was a puppy at a pet store and she’s been the best companion but unfortunately my baby is allergic to dogs :(

Story
MEET DAISY!Daisy is a sweet 3-year-old Goldendoodle with a loving, playful personality. She has been a cherished part of our family, and we are looking for a loving home where she can continue to thrive.Daisy loves being around her people, enjoys attention and family life. She has no history of aggression and has been very gentle and safe around children. She's house trained although she can occasionally have an accident special than her routine changes.Daisy would benefit from more socialisation and continued positive training to help her feel confident around new people and dogs.She's up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, regularly groomed and currently wears the Seresto collar. She's not currently spayed. She does have an ear infection in one ear that needs veterinary attention and treatment.While Daisy needs a family willing to invest time, care and patience in her, she has so much love, affection, and companionship to give back. An amazing choice for a family dog!

We got this dog from my husband boss who just wasn’t able to keep him because it was where there was a smaller dog who kept attacking him. He is a great lovable dog. Plus with us having a busy schedule and where our apartment complex doesn’t allow hai type of breed in it.

Story
Lefty is almost 2, born on a farm. We adopted him in February 2026 from a family with young children & 4 French bulldogs, one of whom bullied him. No jumping; still working on no mouthing. Walks well with guidance. He's brilliant, quick-learning, & loves problem-solving. He loves kids, cats, 2–3-mile walks, dog playdates & watching farm animals (especially horses). He sometimes gently nibbles cats as if grooming them (our cat enjoys it). He needs daily mental stimulation & interactive play: tug-of-war, tag, digging, or swimming. He's not a fetch fan. He's a heavy chewer who loves rocks (SUPERVISE CLOSELY!), sticks, recyclables, & squeaky toys, which he quickly destroys. He's social & seeks frequent attention. He's vocal when he wants something, persistent about affection, competes with devices for attention and is a "night owl". We can't keep him because we live beside 50–70 mph traffic, and he can escape standard fences. We want him to have a safe environment where he can thrive.

Story
Looking for a loving home for Oso ❤️This is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. I’ve had Oso for the past 5 years, and he means so much to me. My son has always helped take care of him, but my son recently left for the Army, and now it’s just Oso and me.I work 10-hour days, and unfortunately, I don’t have a yard or the time I feel Oso deserves. He spends too much time alone in the house, and as much as it breaks my heart, I know he would be happier with someone who has more time to give him the attention, exercise, and companionship he needs.Oso is a very loving, playful, toy-driven dog who absolutely loves playing fetch. He has a lot of love to give and deserves a home where someone can spend time with him, play with him, and make him part of their everyday lifeThis decision is being made because I love him—not because I don’t want him. ❤️ feel free to text or call 360 771 7843
