Story
I acquired Sasha from my friend who found her on the street in 2020. She did not do a great job of watching Sasha and let her out to roam during the day, which resulted in a sweet puppy, Jujubee, who is now part of Sasha's household. I would love to be able to find a loving home in which they can both remain together, if possible. Sasha is incredibly sweet and noble, and would never ever hurt anyone. She is very quiet and calm, and loves to be cuddled and pet. She is approximately 7-8 years old. I would love to find a home for her where she is loved and given lots of care to keep her happy and healthy. She is super loving and deserves nothing but the same in return. I am looking to rehome both her and her puppy Juju (who is now 3 years old) because work has gotten increasingly busy with travel and I am home less days a year than I am traveling. This is hard on the pups and I would like to find them a place where they have stability and don't have to deal with many sitters all the time.

Story
At first glance, Charlie may seem like just another small dog, but beneath his fluffy exterior lies a unique personality. He is an easy going guy who thrives in the company of adults who appreciate the tranquility he brings to their lives. The bond between Charlie and his chosen human is a testament to the trust he places in those who understand his need for a quiet and nurturing environment, which is why a home with children wouldn't be the best fit. Charlie also has a strong sense of boundaries, particularly when it comes to mealtime. His distaste for sharing food, while a minor quirk, is one that can be easily worked with. Charlie, unfortunately, has a bite history from a past incident of inappropriate handling. When put in situations that made him uncomfortable, he communicated his discomfort through warning signs that were ignored. In the right environment, surrounded by caring adults who recognize and honor his unique personality, Charlie blossoms into the sweet, mellow companion he was born to be, reminding us all of the power of compassion and understanding in our relationships with our furry friends.

Speaking of loyalty, Louis is incredibly devoted to his human companions, forming deep and lasting bonds. Louis' unwavering loyalty will undoubtedly bring immeasurable joy and love to his new family. He is a bit shy with other dogs but can be very loving and playful when he opens up in a comfortable environment, making playtime and social interactions a delightful experience. Louis' lap dog tendencies extend even to car rides, ensuring that every journey is filled with warmth and snuggles. He also has a remarkable ability to coexist peacefully with cats. His gentle demeanor and respectful behavior make him an excellent choice for households with feline friends. He is up to date on vaccines and the groomers have also expressed their admiration for this dog, as he has been a pleasure to work with during grooming sessions. Currently, Louis is in the process of recovering from his neuter procedure and will soon be ready to embark on a new chapter with his forever family. If you are seeking a loving, loyal, and sociable companion, this dog is the perfect match.
