✨ Meet Nova ✨ Nova is a beautiful 2–3 year old female who came to us straight off the streets of Visalia. When she first arrived, she was completely shut down—scared, unsure, and clearly used to having to fend for herself. With time, patience, and love, Nova has already come such a long way. She’s still a bit timid at first, but once she knows you’re safe, her sweet and loving personality shines through. She truly just needs someone willing to go slow and let her build trust at her own pace. 🐾 About Nova: • Crate trained • Walks well on leash • Still working on house training • Good with other dogs • Does well with our outdoor cats • Best suited for a home with no young children, as new things can make her nervous Nova doesn’t want to fight anymore. She’s ready for a calm, patient home where she can finally feel safe and loved. With the right person, she is going to be an incredibly loyal and gentle companion. If you feel like you might be the one to give Nova the time, patience, and love she deserves, we would love for you to meet her. 📧 Email: pawsforjuliarescue@gmail.com 📱 Text: (209) 447-7666 Let’s help Nova find her forever 💕

We have a transport leaving the weekend of August 28th 2026 from where we are located in Southern California to NorCal, OR, and surrounding states as needed for our adopting families where we bring our dogs all the way to their homes 💗 For peace of mind we never ask for anything up front. The adoption fee along with your share of travel costs will be due the day we arrive in person ultimately finalizing the adoption then and there with you. We would love to add Elle to our trip for the right family 😊 Meet Ellie 🩷 Ellie is a beautiful little Yorkshire Terrier/Maltese mix who was born April 3, 2026, and she truly is as sweet as pie. 🩷 Currently weighing just 4 pounds, Ellie is still a tiny little thing with some growing left to do. We expect her to mature somewhere around 8–9 pounds full grown, but what she lacks in size she already makes up for with the enormous amount of love packed inside her little body. Ellie is one of those puppies who becomes connected to her people so naturally. She loves knowing where you are, following you from room to room, and simply being included in whatever the day brings. She is a happy little shadow who genuinely enjoys being near her people. Whether you’re moving around the house getting things done, heading out for a drive, or settling in for the evening, Ellie is happiest knowing she gets to be right there with you. She loves everyone she meets and has been absolutely wonderful with dogs and cats. She has such a sweet, social little spirit and is at a beautiful age where she is still discovering the world around her and learning what life with her forever family will look like. Ellie and her brother came to us from a family who owned both of their parents. Their female became pregnant before she was able to be spayed and ultimately had a very small litter—just these two little ones. Of course, the family fell in love with them. 🩷 Their original plan was to keep both puppies and simply grow their family a little more. Unfortunately, sometimes our hearts make plans before life reminds us of what is realistically possible, and a change in their financial circumstances eventually made caring for two additional dogs more than they could responsibly take on long-term. They reached out to us for help finding Ellie and her brother the wonderful homes they deserved, and her brother is now pending adoption with a wonderful family of his own! Now we are hoping Ellie’s family isn’t far behind. 🩷 Their story also gave us an opportunity to make sure their parents would never find themselves in this situation again. We were able to have both mom and dad spayed and neutered, allowing their family to continue loving and caring for the dogs they already had while ensuring there would never be another unexpected litter. And now it is simply Ellie’s turn. 🩷 For such a young puppy, she is already doing beautifully with her training. Ellie is crate trained and does wonderfully having that familiar little space when needed. We have also started introducing her to walks around our home so she can gradually become accustomed to her harness, leash, and the idea of following her person while exploring the world around her. She has been doing very well with those introductions and continues gaining confidence as she goes. Her house training is also coming along wonderfully. Because Ellie is only 4 pounds right now, she is always accompanied when she goes outdoors. She is simply too tiny at this stage for us to send outside unattended. Keeping her on a good, consistent potty schedule will be important in her new home while she continues learning, but she already has a wonderful foundation in place. She is great at bath time and already loves hopping in the car for little road trips around town. 🚗🩷 She really is the kind of little girl who doesn’t care nearly as much about where you’re going as she does about the fact that she gets to go there with you. Medically, Ellie has been thoroughly evaluated by our veterinarian and received a wonderful overall physical examination. She is current on all age-appropriate vaccines, is microchipped, and had a fecal sample sent to the laboratory that cleared her of all parasites. Our veterinarian also sent her home with a health certificate, which will accompany Ellie and all of her medical records to her adopting family. Ellie is not yet spayed. At her young age and tiny size, we want to give her body the opportunity to continue growing and fully maturing before sterilization. She will therefore go home on a spay contract, requiring her adopting family to have her spayed once she has reached the appropriate age and physical maturity. More than anything, we are looking for someone who isn’t simply falling in love with the adorable 4-pound puppy Ellie is today, but who is ready to love and guide the dog she is still becoming. She needs a family willing to continue the beautiful foundation she already has, to keep working on her house training and leash skills, continue her socialization, maintain a consistent routine, and be mindful of just how tiny she currently is. In return, they are getting one truly special little girl. Ellie is affectionate, social, eager to learn, wonderful with other animals, happy to meet new people, already becoming a wonderful little traveler, and deeply connected to those she loves. She truly is a doll looking for a good home to flourish and grow in, so she can somehow become even greater than she already is. 🩷 Ellie’s adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of her adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/_elle It helps cover the care that has gone into preparing her for her forever home, including her veterinary examination, age-appropriate vaccinations, microchip, laboratory fecal testing, health certificate, daily care, grooming, socialization, and the training foundation we have begun with her. Now all this sweet little girl needs is someone whose shadow she gets to be for the rest of her life. 🩷🐾

We would love to add Beau to our trip for the right family 😊 Beau 🩵 Beau was born August 28, 2025, and is a Maltese/Yorkie mix weighing 7.9 pounds full grown. He is at a wonderful, healthy weight for his little frame, and underneath that ridiculously cute face is one of the sweetest little hearts. Beau is shy when meeting someone he doesn’t know. That is simply part of who he is, and I actually think there is something incredibly special about watching the moment he realizes he is safe with you. He doesn’t immediately walk into a room assuming everyone is his best friend. He observes, takes things in, and looks for reassurance from the person he trusts. Once he realizes that your hands are kind and your heart is safe, that little wall starts coming down surprisingly quickly. And then you get to meet the real Beau. 🩵 He is funny, affectionate, incredibly loyal, and has so much personality packed into his tiny 7.9-pound body. He loves playing with other dogs and does wonderfully with dogs both big and small. He is also great with cats. But as much as Beau enjoys his animal friends, at his core he is absolutely a people’s dog. When Beau chooses his person, he loves them deeply. He wants to be near you. He wants to be included in whatever you’re doing. Your day doesn’t have to be exciting or elaborate for him to be happy. If you’re moving around the house, he’s content being part of it. If you’re settling down, he’s happy settling down with you. He has that wonderful ability to simply fit himself into the rhythm of the person he loves. He has been wonderful with our older children, and he recently met our newest little grandson. Beau was perfectly happy sitting alongside me with the baby, simply enjoying being included. Those quiet little moments tell you so much about his temperament. He’s also an incredibly quiet dog. Beau is not a barker. He is accustomed to the normal sounds and activity of everyday life, so it generally takes something unfamiliar to catch his attention. Occasionally he will alert us when something is new or different, but he isn’t a dog who feels the need to carry on about it. Once he knows everything is okay, he’s perfectly content letting his people handle the investigation while he goes back to being Beau. 😂 When I first met him, Beau ran straight to his mom. She was his safe place. He didn’t know me, and he had absolutely no reason yet to believe that I could become one too. So I sat with him. I didn’t expect him to immediately trust me or understand what was happening. I just showed him that while I wasn’t the mom he had grown up knowing and loving, I would love him and take care of him just as fiercely while he was with me. I believe he knows that now. Somewhere along the way, I became his person here🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵 And that is probably why I understand so clearly what Beau is going to give the person who is willing to give him that same opportunity. His shyness may prevent someone from seeing everything extraordinary about him within the first five minutes of meeting him. But give him a little time to build a relationship with you, and there is an entirely different little dog waiting underneath. His previous family loved him, but circumstances in their lives changed. Beau’s dad suffered an injury that required back surgery, and his recovery was expected to be extensive. With everything that came along with that, he and his wife realized they could no longer give Beau the life, activity, and attention they wanted him to have. They made the difficult decision to ask us to take him in so he could have the opportunity for the happiness and companionship he deserves. Because of those circumstances, and the very hot weather we’ve had here, leash walking is still fairly new to Beau. His dad wasn’t physically able to take him out before he came to us, and we’ve been introducing leash time as weather permits. This is simply an area his new family will need to continue building on with him. He is young, eager to be with his person, and has every reason to continue doing beautifully as he gains experience. Inside the home, Beau already has wonderful habits. He is housetrained and thrives with consistency. Here, he is taken outside approximately every 2–3 hours and will go potty when asked. Keeping him on a predictable routine has worked beautifully for him. He is also crate trained. At bedtime, open his crate door and Beau will happily run right in. There’s no struggle or convincing needed; he understands his bedtime routine and settles nicely. If his forever family would rather have him sleep in a little bed beside theirs, or eventually curled up in their bed, I have a feeling Beau would adapt to that arrangement without too much objection. 😂 He travels wonderfully, too. Long or short road trips don’t bother him, which is such a wonderful quality for a family hoping for a little companion who can truly be part of their life. Even grooming is something Beau handles beautifully. He loves our groomer and enjoys a nice cool bath, especially when the deal includes plenty of lap time while he’s being brushed afterward. 🩵 His adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of his adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/_beau-1 It covers his neuter, microchip, current vaccines, thorough veterinary care and his light dental scaling and polish. Although Beau is still young, he did have some mild buildup that warranted a light cleaning. Dental needs aren’t determined by age alone. Genetics, breed and diet can all play a role, particularly in small breeds. His teeth were otherwise in great health and no extractions were needed. His dental was simply an opportunity to give him a beautifully clean, healthy start going into his forever home. There are dogs who show you everything they have to offer the instant you meet them. Beau isn’t that dog. He’s the little boy who may initially stand back and wonder whether he can trust you. He’s going to look toward the person he already knows is safe before deciding whether you might be safe too. But I have had the privilege of being on the other side of that uncertainty. I know the Beau who comes after it. I know the funny little boy with the huge personality. The affectionate companion. The dog who loves his people deeply, gets along beautifully with the animals around him, happily goes wherever life takes him, and really doesn’t ask for much beyond being included and loved. And now that I have become his person, I will have the honor of eventually bringing him to the person who gets to be his forever person. Someone who won’t measure their connection with him by the first few minutes they spend together, but who will give him the opportunity to realize once again: I’m safe here. I’m loved here. This is my person now. Give Beau that chance, and I truly don’t believe you’ll ever regret opening your home and your heart to him. 🩵
