With her gorgeous brindle coat, human-like eyes, and the prettiest ember coloring, Rainee Bee is the kind of dog that stops you in your tracks. Add in her happy personality and incredibly loving nature, and you’ve got a girl who doesn’t just catch your attention… she keeps your heart. She’s happy, loving, and full of sweet personality, with the cutest little bursts of playful energy mixed in with her cozy, homebody charm. Rainee Bee may take a moment to warm up in new environments or with new people, but once she knows you, she lights up in the most special way. Her tail starts wagging, her goofy side comes out, and suddenly you’ve gained the most devoted, affectionate companion who just wants to be near you. She tends to open up especially quickly with women, and once you’re in her circle, her love is easy, genuine, and completely heart-melting. Watch her video and fall in love with her: https://youtu.be/2df99z-eqo0?si=iMP1fHgedij04Z4R Rainee Bee is believed to be a pittie mix approximately 2 years old and currently weighs 48 lbs. She is a rescue dog and with any rescue, it’s always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age. Rainee really does teach you how to slow down in life and to appreciate everything around you. She loves laying out in the backyard, belly up and just soaking it all in like there’s no care in the world. She’s just a sweet and cuddly homebody that thrives in a slower paced environment with people that have the exact same mindset as she does. She loves a good snuggle and can be very affectionate towards the person she bonds with. Rainee promises to never pull your arm off looking for love from a stranger. She will take a moment to get to know you before professing her love, but… psst—don’t tell her we told you this, but Rainee’s heart is easily won with patience, gentle voices and trust. Once you're in her corner, it's game over! You’ll forever be her favorite person and you’ll gain the sweetest little shadow. The same can be said about Rainee when she is meeting new people. She will take a moment to get to know them but as long as she is with the people that she knows, loves and trusts, she quickly realizes your guests are an extension of her favorite people and she'll be resting her head on their lap and snuggling with them in no time. Especially towards women, she tends to open up fastest with women. She is good around men too and has been around plenty of them. It just takes her a little bit longer to feel fully comfortable around men and prefers to be around patient gentle toned men in life. Not only is Rainee your next best friend but she will also be your dog's next best friend! She has been introduced to so many different types of dogs and thrives around other dogs. Rainee is currently fostered with multiple dogs in the home and she gets along great with all of them. She is great about matching energies with other dogs, from romping, bouncing, wrestling gently, and throwing paws with dogs who enjoy that style. When play is done, she’ll calmly walk away and enjoy the fresh air. Rainee is shy when she first meets new dogs and will do best in a home with a doggy friend that will allow her to get the lay of the land, feel comfortable, etc. and then the rest is history. Rainee is good about sharing treats, affection, couch time and toys with her dog friends too. Speaking of toys, this little lady loves them! Especially stuffy toys! She loves tossing them up in the air and catching them like she’s air bud from the movies. She also does the cutest little hops when she’s playing too. Rainee knows how to entertain herself quietly with a chew toy or a stuffy. She can be relaxing on the couch with you by her side while you’re watching tv or even working from home and there will be Rainee quietly chewing her toy entertaining herself. She also has fantastic house manners! She is crate trained, potty trained, has never destroyed anything in the home, and doesn't get into anything she isn't supposed to. Rainee also met our house cat Biggie and met him appropriately and was very respectful around him. She did not chase Biggie, nor was she bothered by Biggie jumping or doing what cats do. Biggie also felt comfortable around her as well. We do not know if she has ever lived in a home before with a cat and this was our first time seeing her with a cat. If you have a cat in the home, we can arrange for her to have a sleepover with a cat upon request. Just let us know! Rainee would do best in a home with a backyard in a more residential area rather than in the heart of the city with all the noises that come with the city life. Rainee has great listening ears and some noises do spook her so a quieter neighborhood will ultimately be best for her. She also just loves to spend time outside and sunbathe and play with her dog friends. If you’re looking for a sweet, happy dog with personality, affection, and just the right balance of playful energy and cozy companionship, Rainee is ready to bring all of that and more into your life. We are willing to test Rainee Bee with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Meet Mygena Hyena: The Gorgeous Cuddly Adventure Princess✨ Why “Mygena Hyena,” you ask? One look at her giant goofy smile, her hilarious little expressions, and those absolutely breathtaking golden honey eyes, and it just makes sense. She has the face of a majestic woodland princess mixed with the energy of your funniest best friend who accidentally trips over air but somehow still looks beautiful doing it. At around 3 years old, Mygena Hyena is truly one of those dogs who just loves being loved. During her assessment, she floated around the room collecting affection from every human possible like she was running for mayor. She met tons of people and acted like every single one was her long-lost family member returning from war. Tail wiggles? Check. Face kisses? MANY. Leaning her entire body weight into you for scratches? Absolutely. This girl believes affection is a full-time job. If you sit down, congratulations, you now have a cuddle buddy. If you stand up, congratulations, you now have a shadow. If you look at her for more than three seconds, she assumes you obviously wanted to kiss her forehead and tell her she’s beautiful. And honestly? She’s correct. One of the cutest things about her is how soft and sweet she is while asking for attention. She’ll gently hop up for love, roll onto her back dramatically for belly rubs, and stare at you with those giant golden eyes like you are personally responsible for making her day magical. It’s impossible not to laugh around her because she has this goofy, lovable, slightly dramatic personality that makes everything more entertaining. Watch Mygena's video here! https://youtu.be/MvDwb5y8LDc?si=uwip4s6MztVamzXU And while she is an Olympic-level snuggler, Mygena Hyena is not just a couch potato. Her foster says one of their favorite things about her is how much she loves adventures and being active. She would be SUCH a fun companion for someone who likes getting out of the house. Walks? Yes. Exploring? Absolutely. Hiking buddy? 100%. Farmers markets, patio hangs, road trips, wandering around town pretending she pays rent there? She would thrive. She has that perfect mix of “let’s go do stuff!” and “okay now let’s cuddle for six straight hours.” On leash, she was easygoing and followed directional changes really nicely with just tiny little guidance. She naturally wanted to stay connected with her people and was very pleasant to walk. When it came to other dogs, Mygena Hyena was honestly hilarious because she was so chill about everybody. She met all kinds of dogs during her assessment (playful puppies, dominant females, energetic dogs, calm dogs) and she handled everything beautifully. Her vibe was basically: “Oh hi.” sniff sniff “Anyway… where are the humans petting me?” She mostly wandered around doing her own thing, occasionally greeting dogs politely before continuing her important business of being adorable. She shared affection from handlers well, tolerated all the dogs she met nicely, and overall was just super easygoing socially. Her foster says she lives with multiple dogs and does great. For very tiny dogs, her foster mentioned she can sometimes play too enthusiastically and may chase smaller active dogs, so dog friends around 20 pounds and up would likely be the best fit for her. During her assessment, she did very well with a calmer small dog and was mostly aloof and polite. Now for the one thing Miss Mygena Hyena says she cannot compromise on: absolutely no cats. Tiny tiger roommates are not for her. As for kiddos, she hasn’t officially been around children yet, but she is incredibly affectionate and loving with every person she meets. We can absolutely kid-test her for interested adopters! She is a sweet girl, but because she sometimes gently jumps up for affection and she’s a bigger gal, we’d want to make sure everyone is a good fit together. Her dream forever home is one where she gets to be included in everyday life. She’s not the kind of dog who wants to sit alone in the background — she wants to be part of the family. She wants to go on adventures, get showered in love, follow you around the house dramatically, supervise snack time, and then curl up next to you afterward like the giant affectionate baby she is. Honestly, Mygena Hyena feels like one of those dogs people talk about forever after adopting: “That’s my soul dog.” “That’s my best friend.” “That’s the little golden-eyed lady who changed my life.” She’s silly, affectionate, adventurous, cuddly, and full of personality. And those gorgeous golden eyes? They look right into your soul like she already knows she belongs with somebody out there. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?
