Story
Hello, this is my dog Rocky. He is a Maltese mixed with shihtzu. He just turned a year old January 3rd. He is a very playful, energetic and loving pet. Rocky loves to play tug of war, fetch and cuddle at night. When his hair grows out he is a fluffy teddy bear. He gets along with kids, cats and other dogs. I am looking for a good home one that will love him and give him the affection and attention that he needs.

Story
Chewy  is an incredibly sweet and mellow little guy. He adores being petted and uses his whole body to show his appreciation. His favorite place is snuggled up next to his people anytime they sit or lie down. I can't say enough about how lovely and good a boy he is.  Energy Level?  Medium House trained?  Mostly. We are primarily using belly bands, and he stays dry inside and knows what to do outside. He may need some patience and support as he acclimates to a new home and new routine. Describe how they are on a leash?  Walks beautifully on a leash - heels well, doesn't pull, and is happy to go as long as you're able. Not reactive to other dogs or squirrels he encounters on his walks.  Describe how they are with other dogs?  Gets along very well with our three small resident dogs—patient, gentle, and non-reactive. We keep them separate at feeding time because he is highly food-motivated. Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they?  He met one cate and ignored him. I suspect he would be fine living with a cat in the home. Does not seem interested in chasing squirrels. Commands they know?  Comes when called, goes potty when asked, and does a sweet little dance when his meals are served. What are their favorite things?  Snuggles, pets, love, and food.  What do they need to work on?  Potty training. He is a pretty perfect little gentleman. How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone?  Chewy is crate-trained and snuggles up in his crate with his blanket when we need to leave the house. He will bark or react to noise, like our resident dogs, but he calms down quickly. Where do they sleep?  Chewy is happiest snuggled up with his people. He would love to find a home where he is welcome in the big bed. What is their ideal home?  Chewy would do well in a home with lots of love, attention, and regular walks. He is very patient and gentle with kids, visitors, and other dogs. He loves being close to his people, getting lots of pets, and being told what a good boy he is. He is a wonderful companion and will bring lots of joy to his forever family. Chewy is 7 years old and 8 pounds. Our Adoption fee is $325.   For adoption consideration or to meet our dogs, please complete our online application:   www.everypetsdream.org/adopt  and we will have everything we need to know to call you back and set up an appointment.  Follow us:  Facebook  and  Instagram   January 3, 2026, 8:37 pm

Story
Meet Neyetam and Kiri, an adorable, sweet bonded pair of small dogs who are looking for a home together. They are both soft, gentle, and shy by nature, especially when meeting new people, and will need a patient and understanding adopter to help them feel safe and confident.While they may take some time to warm up to people, they are very playful with each other and love to run around, chase, and enjoy happy moments together. Their bond is strong, and they truly bring out the best in one another. Once they feel comfortable, Neyetam and Kiri enjoy gentle pets and cozy lap time, happily settling in for quiet affection. With patience, consistency, and love, these sweet dogs will blossom into loyal and loving companions.They would do best in a peaceful home with children over the age of 7 who can be mindful of their sensitive nature, giving them the time and space to adjust comfortably while they continue to build confidence together, all while staying side by side with their best friend. Neyetam and Kiri are currently available by appointment. Please call (831) 264-5422 to learn more about them and meet them! Primary Color: Black Brown Weight: 7.4 Age: 1yrs 6mths 3wks
