Story
Meet Pearl 🤍 (aka the crusty queen with opinions 💅) Pearl is 3.5 years old, 6lbs, and came to us back in September with 12 other dogs. She’s officially retired from her past life as a “milk dog” mama — done raising babies and finally ready to live life on her terms now. And trust us… she has terms 😂 This girl has come SUCH a long way with socialization, but she’s still very much an independent lady. If you’re looking for a cuddle bug… Pearl said “respectfully, no.” BUT if you’re looking for a bestie who will absolutely smother you in kisses and demand head scratches and has the cutest little wiggle?? She’s your girl 💕 Her favorite hobbies include: 🎾 Throwing her toys for herself (yes, really) 🛋️ Perching on the back of the couch like a tiny gargoyle 💋 Handing out unsolicited kisses 🕺Wiggling when she hears someone say “Pearly girly” Pearl is crate trained and potty trained, though she may need a little refresher in a new home. She thrives on routine — once she learns it, she sticks to it like a pro. ✨ Requirements for Miss Pearl ✨ 🏡 Must own your home 🌳 Fenced-in yard required 🐶 Prefer to be the only dog OR have a very submissive dog sibling (she’s got a little attitude and not everyone appreciates her spice 🌶️) 💋 Must love kisses 🚫 No cuddling expectations She’s still not a fan of being reached for and may need to be leashed or gently led outside, but with patience and consistency, she does great. She has never showed any aggression to people, she just doesn’t fully grasp she’s safe right away. Pearl isn’t for everyone — but for the right person, she’s hilarious, quirky, and so full of personality. If you love a dog with boundaries and a whole lot of sass, Pearl is waiting for you 🤍 Apply here to meet Miss Pearly: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/LKR/Dog

Story
Meet Clover 🍀 Clover is a 3-year-old, under-10-pound former mill rescue with a gentle heart who is still learning how to feel safe in the world. She is sweet, quiet, and connection-oriented, but she needs the right home to continue building confidence. Clover’s ideal home MUST have: • A secure, physically fenced yard • NO children • Another calm, friendly dog in the home • A family with patience and realistic expectations Important care needs: • Clover must be leashed at all times until she is fully comfortable — even indoors and in fenced yards • Free roaming is frightening for her • She does best with a secure space near her people • She is fully pee-pad trained and keeps her space clean Clover isn’t looking for an active or busy household. She wants a calm home where she can stay close, observe quietly, and build trust at her own pace. Once she feels safe, she bonds deeply and loves being held or resting beside her people. If you have a quiet home, a soft heart, and the patience to let Clover move at her speed, she could be your perfect match. 🍀💚
