Story
Meet Charlie 💙 This is incredibly hard for us to write, but we are hoping to find the perfect home for our sweet dog, Charlie. Charlie is a well-behaved, very friendly, and incredibly loving dog. He adores people, enjoys companionship, and has the kindest, gentlest soul. He has been a wonderful part of our family. As much as we love him, we have a one-year-old at home and two very busy parents, and we’re heartbroken to admit that we can’t give Charlie the time and attention he truly deserves. Our goal is to find him a family who can. Charlie is diabetic and does very well with his care routine. He receives insulin twice a day, which he handles calmly and reliably. He also has decreased vision, but he is not blind and gets around comfortably in familiar spaces. He is up-to-date on all vaccinations and currently has pet insurance. This is not a decision made lightly. We are deeply sad to be parting ways with Charlie.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Otto - The Tiny Tornado of Charm & Sass Otto isn't just any Maltese mix - he's a one-of-a-kind spark plug wrapped in fluff with a heart as big as his personality. At around 9 months old and weighing in at a sprightly 11-12 pounds, Otto is still figuring out this whole "growing up" thing - but he's doing it in style. Otto came to us after finding it tough to share space with a toddler. Honestly, we get it - being a toddler himself, Otto just wasn't ready for the grabby hands and constant attention. He's a sensitive soul with a strong sense of self. Sometimes he's the life of the party, and other times he's off with his doggie crew doing important dog things (read: zoomies, stick inspection, tail-chasing strategy meetings). Playtime? Count him in. Other dog? Love them. Small children? Not his vibe. Because of his past, Otto's ideal home is one without kids under 10. He's looking for a family that gets his balance of cuddle time and "me time." He has some puppy manners to polish up, but he makes up for it with buckets of love and a truly special personality. Otto's not just looking for a home - he's looking for a teammate, a playmate, a soft place to land when the world gets a little too loud. If you've got the patience to let him grow, and the heart to love him just as he is, Otto might just be your forever sidekick. Currently accepting applications here for Best Friend positions - must love dogs and tolerate a little sass!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 17, 2025, 8:01 pm
