💕 Meet Gigi 💕Age: 4 yearsWeight: 17 lbsBreed: Chihuahua / Shih Tzu mix (best guess!)Adoption Fee: $500Location: CaledoniaGigi came to us from a hoarding situation, carrying more than just her tiny 17 pounds — she carried her babies, Laz and Lina, through survival. Both of her puppies are parvo survivors… and through it all, Gigi stayed exactly who she is at heart: soft, gentle, and unbelievably devoted.This girl is the definition of sweet.When she sees you, she gives the tiniest full-body wiggle — like her whole world just walked into the room. She doesn’t jump, she doesn’t demand. She simply leans in for kisses and settles right beside you, happiest curled up in a blanket on the couch.She is:• Very cuddly• Extremely affectionate• Quiet and low energy• Patient beyond words (her puppies climb all over her and she just lets them)• Laid back with perfect manners• Truly one of the most gentle souls you’ll ever meetGigi sleeps in an open crate or on the couch, walks nicely on leash, is crate trained, likely housebroken, great with kids and dogs, and is fully up to date on vaccines. She is spayed and will be microchipped.But beyond all the boxes she checks… Gigi just loves. She soaks up hugs. She melts into you. She gives soft kisses like she’s saying thank you for choosing her.After surviving chaos and raising babies, it’s finally her turn to be someone’s baby.If you’re looking for calm companionship, quiet loyalty, and a warm little body to curl up next to you every night… Gigi is ready.Apply at www.biggiepawsrescue.org 💕DATCP # 494550

Story

Meet Jarvis! Jarvis is a 9-month-old Lab mix with a gorgeous golden coat and a heart of pure sunshine. This sweet boy is the best of both worlds—playful and energetic when it’s time for fun, and affectionate and cuddly when it’s time to relax. He truly loves being with his people. Jarvis does wonderfully with kids and would make an amazing family dog. He’s crate trained and currently polishing his leash skills (he’s getting better every day!). At his young age, Jarvis is eager to please and full of potential to keep learning and growing into an incredible companion. Once a stray, Jarvis is now ready for his furever home—one filled with love, adventure, and lots of snuggles. Jarvis at a glance: • 9 months old (DOB: 3/18/25) • 41 lbs • Lab mix • Great with kids • Crate trained • Learning leash manners Adoption Fee: $250Includes neuter, microchip, up-to-date vaccines, heartworm test, and a current vet check.

Got her 2 months ago. Very loving very playful. But I work between 88-123 hours on the gravy yard shift and don’t have much time for her. She gets along with other dogs but plays very ruff with cats. My landlord doesn’t want me to keep her and did to rehome her.
