Story
Meet Luna! She is a 3-year-old purebred princess. She came into our lives through an online adoption and has been loved and taken care of. Luna is a true lap dog who thrives on affection and calm companionship. She loves car rides, belly scratches, cozy naps, and will get the cutest zoomies when she’s happy. She bonds closely with her person and does best in a peaceful, predictable environment where she can feel secure and spoiled. Luna would be happiest in an adult-only home. She is not playful with children and needs a home with no kids and no plans for kids, so she can relax and have all of the attention she deserves. Because of this, we are looking for a home that is a better match for her needs. This decision comes from a place of love and responsibility. Our goal is simply to find Luna a safe, calm, and loving forever home where she can truly thrive.

Story
Knox came in to the shelter in very bad condition on the outside, but on the inside, this love-bug has a heart of gold. Even in the horrible condition of his fur, he had kisses for the staff and wanted to be held. He came in with another female who was also in bad condition. We immediately took him to the groomer and had all the hair stripped off. You can see in the "before" picture how bad he was. He and the female (Indie) seem very bonded and may be related, so we will try to adopt them together if possible. He had been seen wandering through parking lots in Stockton for a week before arriving, so we do not know where he was living before here. New owner should be prepared to work on house manners in case he hasn't had any prior training. The vet estimates he is between 1 and 3, so we settled on 2. Dog will need regular grooming in the future. $350.00 adoption will help us with the grooming, vaccinations, microchipping and neuter. Let's get this good boy a much better home.

Story
Meet Cloonie, a cuddly and playful Pug and Maltipoo mix pup born on April 16, 2025. Weighing in at 22 lbs, this cutie is a great size for playtime and lovings. Cloonie found his way to us because his youthful puppy energy was simply too playful for his previous owner's senior dog, so he is now searching for a home that matches his zest for life. He is a friendly, social boy who is wonderful with children as young as three years old, making him an excellent addition to a family. Potential adopters should be prepared to offer Cloonie some extra patience and consistency, as he still needs work on his house training. He is currently vaccinated and microchipped, and his adoption fee is $350. Cloonie is scheduled to be neutered on February 18th and will be ready to head to his forever home the very next day on February 19th. Apply for Cloonie at www.petsnpals.org!

Story
Benny is a handsome guy! He is a 4.5-year-old, 16-pound, blond colored, Maltese / Terrier mix. Benny gets along fine with other small friendly dogs; he is not fond of bigger dogs. He also likes cats. He was surrendered for not liking the grandkids. He does not enjoy being hugged on but will sit in your lap. He is used to sleeping in a human bed at night. He does not like your face in his face, so he is ideal for an owner not wanting a kissy face. He would prefer a quieter, calmer home without children. He enjoys walks and does very well on a leash. He is a mellow guy and is content hanging out on the couch watching TV. He will sit in your lap once he is comfortable. Benny is house trained and will sit at the door to let you know he needs out. He is neutered, current on vaccinations and micro-chipped. He will require regular professional grooming. You must have a securely fenced yard to adopt Benny; he climbs and digs out. He will wander if given the chance. NO chickens! Female only home please! #Kindnessandloveisforever Follow us. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61582104536779 to see what we are doing and to see other dogs.If you are interested in this dog or would like more information please send me an Adoption QuestionnaireThank youAdoption Fees For Dogs Start At $ 400- 500 Medium & Large Mixed Breed Adult Dogs: $400 plus Medium & Large Pure Breed Adult Dogs or Puppies: $450.00 plus Medium & Large Mixed Breed Puppies: $400 plus Small Mixed Breeds (Puppies & Adults): $450 plus Purebred & Designer Dogs (Puppies & Adults): $500 plus (Fees subject to change) Adopt Today!

If we need to look something up later and you used a different email we are often not able to find it. 2. Adopt a Pet and Petfinders ask you to send us an enquiry. This always delays our response. (Why) a. Our biographies are always very detailed. Therefore sending an enquiry asking us to repeat what it says in the biography causes a lot more work and delays our response. b. We are a small non-profit and do not always have the help to answer as many enquiries as we get. c. Again our Biographies are very detailed and if you just click the link near the bottom of their bio you can fill out an application which we will respond to. 3.
