Story
Meet Lulu (and her bestie Lily!)  — two tiny lovebugs ready to steal your heart! Lulu is an adorable black terrier mix, around 1–2 years old, with a snuggly soul and the softest fur made for cuddles. She was rescued as a stray in Puerto Rico and spent a happy year with her human before life took an unexpected turn. Now she’s ready to start a new chapter — this time, side by side with her best friend, Lily!  About Lulu: A total lap dog who loves nothing more than cozying up with her favorite person. Gentle, sweet, and happiest when she’s being held or snuggled under a blanket. Doing great in her foster home with kids and other dogs! Working on potty training and getting the hang of the routine like a little champ.  Better Together:Lulu and Lily are a package deal — and trust us, you’ll be so glad they come as a pair! These girls are inseparable and give each other confidence, comfort, and plenty of giggles. They play together, nap together, and melt hearts together daily.  Their Dream Home:They’d love a home where someone is around often to soak up their affection and return it tenfold. They’ll reward you with double the love, double the snuggles, and double the tail wags!  Lulu and Lily have so much joy to share and are waiting for the family that will let them keep writing their story — together. Their combined adoption fee is $500. Ready for twice the love and endless cuddles? These girls are ready to meet you!  ##2650439##

Story
Tiramisu is a 5-month-old little girl with a huge personality and an endless supply of joy. She was found with her siblings and mom when she was just one week old after being surrendered from a difficult situation, and she has grown into a happy, confident, playful pup who is ready to take on the world. This girl is very, very playful and absolutely lives for fun. She and her sister Mochi love to romp around together, and Tiramisu would do best in a home with another playful dog who can keep up with her energy and enthusiasm. Playtime is her favorite thing, but she also has so much love to give and bonds deeply with her people. Tiramisu has that perfect mix of silly puppy energy and a big, bold personality. She wants to play, explore, and soak up life, and she can’t wait to find a forever home that will let her be her joyful, playful self while continuing her puppy training and adventures. If you’re looking for a fun-loving pup with a big heart and an even bigger personality, Tiramisu might be your perfect match.    ##2609454##

Mochi is a five-month-old bundle of pure joy who’s as sweet as her name. She was rescued from a tough start in life alongside her mom and five siblings, but you’d never know it—this happy, bouncy pup radiates love and energy wherever she goes. Mochi is playful, curious, and full of puppy personality. She adores playtime, zoomies, and belly rubs, and she’s always ready to make you laugh with her goofy antics. She would thrive in a home with another playful dog friend to wrestle and romp with, or an active family ready to keep her engaged and loved. She’s the perfect mix of silly and snuggly, and she’s ready to find her forever home where she can keep growing, learning, and spreading happiness every day. ##2559779##

Chanel is currently in foster in Los Angeles and is looking for a forever home in the Los Angeles area.   She is a gentle, loving girl who has already given so much and is ready for a safe, stable place to call her own. Chanel was rescued from an area where dogs were living in heartbreaking conditions. She belonged to an elderly unhoused woman who loved her deeply and asked for help keeping her safe. We stepped in, helped Chanel raise her puppies, and every one of them is now healthy and placed in loving homes.   Now it is Chanel’s turn.   She is wonderful with dogs, cats, and kids. Calm, affectionate, and easygoing, Chanel bonds deeply with her people. She is the kind of dog who quietly fills a room with warmth and simply wants to be close to the ones she loves. After everything she has been through, she deserves consistency, comfort, and a family who will cherish her.   Chanel is being fostered in Los Angeles and is available for adoption locally. If you are looking for a steady, devoted companion with a gentle spirit, Chanel may be the perfect fit.   To apply to adopt, please visit compassionkind.org/adopt or send us a message to learn more.   ##2656038##

Story
🌟 ACCEPTING PRE-APPLICATIONS ✨ These tiny survivors have already beaten incredible odds… and now they’re ready for the happiest chapter of their lives. Found huddled together beneath a shed in the freezing cold of rural Alabama, these sweet little rat terrier–type puppies endured more in their first weeks than any baby ever should. Tragically, their siblings didn’t survive the cold; but these brave little souls held on. And today, they are warm, safe, thriving, and full of playful puppy joy. At around 9 weeks old, they are everything you’d hope for in a puppy! Curious, bouncy, snuggly, and impossibly adorable. They love to play, explore, and then curl up close for the sweetest naps. Because of their unknown past, there are a few mysteries that come with loving them: • We didn’t see mom or dad, so breed and adult size are only our best guess. • We don’t know their full health or genetic history. • We can’t predict shedding or exactly how big they’ll grow. • And like all young puppies, they are not housetrained yet and will need patience, structure, and lots of love as they learn. What we do know is this: They are incredibly loving. They are resilient. And they are so, so ready to belong to someone who will love them forever. *They’ll be ready to go home this Friday following their vetting.* 📍Clearwater, FL 💻 https://www.southernstatesbullyrescue.org/blank
