Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Osaka, the pint-sized tornado with a bark big enough to keep your whole block informed of every passing squirrel, leaf, or suspicious breeze. Subtle? Not her style. But hey, if you’ve ever dreamed of owning your very own furry security system, she’s got you covered. She’s currently perfecting kennel training—translation: she’ll sleep peacefully in her foster’s room, but she’s not shy about reminding you when she thinks bedtime came too soon. Digging is also on her résumé, though whether she’s unearthing buried treasure or just following her nose, only Osaka knows. This girl has energy to spare, so be prepared for zoomies, ball-chasing marathons, and the occasional brain game to keep that clever mind busy. And once she’s worn herself out, she’ll happily claim her favorite spot on the couch to supervise the outside world through the window—because clearly, neighborhood watch is a full-time job. Potty breaks? She’s working on it. Sometimes she’s so eager to get back inside and be with her people that she forgets to finish. Priorities, right? She adores other dogs and always comes ready to play, though her “enthusiastic” style may test the patience of more mellow pups. Her car ride review: “1 star, way too bumpy, but I survived.” On the flip side, she already knows “sit” and “shake,” proving she’s both smart and trainable. With structure, activity, and a family who appreciates her blend of sass and sweetness, Osaka will be the perfect mix of watchdog, workout buddy, and cuddle companion. Osaka is from a local rescue partner. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi! I'm Hadley, a curious puppy with a love for toys and just a dash of shyness. While I enjoy exploring on my own, I'm also quite playful, and I’d love an older, confident pup to play with! My siblings might stick together, but I’m usually off on my own little adventures, sniffing around and discovering new corners of our play area. I can be a bit shy at first, but once I get to know you, we’ll share plenty of wonderful moments—and maybe even a few fun games. If you’re looking for a spirited companion who brings a touch of adventure to your life, I’m the perfect match! Take a look at this video of Hadley romping around with her siblings. And here’s another video of them playing with toys. Hadley is from a local reservation. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application.
