🐾 Meet Dobby — Your Future Little House Pup! 🐾Say hello to Dobby, a 4–6 month old Boxer/Chihuahua mix (we think — and yes, we’re as confused as you are 😂). He was named by our amazing Facebook followers as part of a group of uniquely-named pups based on their looks, and honestly… the name could not be more perfect.Just like his magical namesake, Dobby is a free-spirited, loyal little goofball who is basically Dobby the House Pup. He’s sweet, gangly, and full of that “did I just trip over my own feet?” kind of charm. He’s expected to be a medium-ish sized dog when fully grown — perfectly sized for adventures and couch cuddles.✨ Dobby’s special powers include:• Turning regular toys into magical treasure• Casting “Zoomius Maximus” during playtime• Making messes disappear (by redistributing them around the room)He’s playful, a little ornery in the cutest way, and loves to roughhouse and wrestle with toys. He’s still learning his puppy manners, but he’s got a heart full of mischief and love.And don’t worry — Dobby is a free elf… he just needs a forever home instead of a sock. 🧦🐶If you’re ready for some magic, laughs, and puppy chaos, Dobby is ready to be loyal to you forever.📍 Available for adoption now🪄 Come meet your very own house puppy elf!

Story
⛏️❤️ Meet Yukon Cornelius ❤️⛏️This brave boy’s name isn’t just cute — it’s a promise.Yukon Cornelius is about 4 years old and came to us with 5 other dogs from the same situation. When he first arrived, he was completely shut down — frozen in fear, unable to move, unsure how to exist in a safe place. But just like the character he was named after, he’s slowly, bravely finding his footing.We were told he is a mix of apple-headed Chihuahua and Boxer, and his beautiful red coat makes him just as striking on the outside as he is tender on the inside.Yukon doesn’t rush. He doesn’t demand. He gently reveals who he is when he feels safe. For the people he trusts, he becomes playful, silly, and surprisingly goofy. Watching him come out of his shell has been one of the quiet joys of our shelter.Yukon Cornelius needs a patient, kind-hearted home — someone who understands that healing isn’t instant and love is built slowly. In the right home, with the right person, this sweet boy is going to blossom in the most beautiful way.If you’re the kind of person who believes in second chances and soft landings, Yukon is waiting for you.📋 If interested, please fill out an application at effinghamcountyhumanesociety.org
