Story
Meet Harlee! Harlee has somehow managed to age into a tiny, distinguished gentleman instead of a cranky old man. He is exceedingly polite, emotionally stable, and he comes with a glowing reference list: housebroken, great with kids, respectful of cats, and currently living peacefully among other dogs like a tiny HOA president who just wants everyone to get along. Harlee is easygoing, affectionate, and adaptable in that magical senior-dog way that makes you forget what chaos feels like. He’s the kind of dog who fits into your life instead of rearranging it. He enjoys squeaky toys, though occasionally he loves them a little too much and must be supervised like a toddler with a kazoo. He loves a good walk, a committed couch partnership, a reliable mealtime, and his emotional support stuffy. He is happiest curled directly into a lap, pressed close like he’s trying to memorize your heartbeat. And then, occasionally, he remembers he has legs and releases a set of joyful zoomies ~ flying around with the kind of infectious happiness that turns your day around. Despite being a senior, Harlee did not get the memo about slowing down. He rides great in the car, walks nicely on leash, handles stairs without dramatics, and happily joins in on walks like this is simply part of his daily obligations as a dog. A recent dental and full vet workup confirmed he’s an overall healthy guy. He does have some mild arthritis starting in his hind end, which is being responsibly managed with a joint supplement - because self-care matters. Harlee loves riding in the car, which to him is decidedly not a passive activity. He rises onto his two back legs like a concerned citizen harassing a children’s lemonade standing asking to see their business license. Completely upright in the passenger seat, keeping watch over traffic, pedestrians, and any suspicious landscaping choices. He doesn’t bark or panic. He simply supervises. Like a small, elderly neighborhood watch captain in a wiry fur coat. And then he comes home and melts into any hooman willing or unwilling. Harlee is going to make someone extraordinarily happy. Hallmark happy ~ quiet evenings, warm laps, and a dog who checks on you as often as he checks on the road. Harlee is proof that senior dogs are not “past their prime.” They are the prime. Calm, loving, grateful, and still very much here for the good stuff. Apply today to meet him! Harlee is approximately 13 years old and 15 lbs of extremely good boy.

Story
Meet Aspyn! This sweet girl is small enough to fit in the bend of your arm and quiet enough to disappear into a blanket to send you into a panic that she’s vanished. Aspyn was surrendered because the person who loves her could not provide the medical care she may need long term. Her records talk of chronic ear infections, and the luxating patellas we see so often. The slow, manageable things that become more weighty with time. Aspyn is a good pup whose family was struggling with the quiet maintenance of a small aging body. Aspyn is gentle and has lived peacefully with young children, cats, and other dogs. She has been left home alone for a few hours at a time and simply sleeps in her bed like a polite little loaf of bread waiting for her person to return. She’s not use to a crate, and she’s not fully housebroken, but she is potty pad savvy. Aspyn LOVES going outside and practically levitates at the sight of a leash. She toddles along like the world has personally invited her for a stroll and it has instantly become her best day ever. She's not the biggest fan of car rides, preferring to walk everywhere she needs to go. She's not the best at manuevering stairs, unless they are carpeted. Fortunately, she is very light to carry up and down as needed. She's also good with using ramps to get onto couches and beds. She also adores snuggling, preferring to be in your lap or your arms at all times - the best kind of Stage 5 clinger. She's hopging the humans in her forever home are around most of the time to lavish her with the attention she deserves. She's also love to have a canine companion. Aspyn does not need chaos. She does not need perfection. What she needs is steadiness. A home where a small dog with delicate knees and tender ears can be carried when she’s tired and celebrated when she’s brave. A place where she can finish the second half of her life with dignity and grace, and we intend to find it. Aspyn is approximately 9 years old and 5 lbs.

Story
If love had a personality, it would look a lot like Pesto. This sweet little guy is pure affection wrapped in fur. Pesto is a certified Velcro dog who believes personal space is optional and cuddling is mandatory. If you stop petting him, don’t worry, he’ll politely remind you by reaching out and petting you right back. Yes, really. Consent is negotiable in Pesto’s world when it comes to affection. He adores people, thrives on companionship, and wants nothing more than to be close to his human at all times. Couch time, bedtime, lazy Sundays, quick kitchen trips, he’s your tiny, devoted shadow. Pesto gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes and does great with cats too. He walks nicely on a leash and is an easygoing, all around good boy who just wants love and a cozy place to belong. A few important notes about this charming little gentleman: • Must have a privacy fence because Pesto is a talented escape artist and believes adventure awaits beyond the yard • Recently neutered and still marking occasionally, but this should improve as hormones settle • Professional cuddle expert and enthusiastic ear cleaner. He will lovingly clean your ears whether you requested spa services or not Pesto is sweet, funny, affectionate, and completely devoted. The kind of dog who makes a house feel warmer just by existing in it. Adoption fee: $300 Covers neuter, vaccines, parasite prevention, and microchip Apply at www.fullcirclerescueandsanctuary.com to add this lovable little shadow to your life.

Whether it’s playtime in the yard or cozy time on the couch, she’s happiest when she’s included in the fun. Mirabel’s adoption fee of $300 includes her spay, vaccines, parasite prevention, and microchip. Visit www.fullcirclerescueandsanctuary.com to fill out an application.
