(Bonded to Amos, must be willing to adopt both) There's a snake in my boot Andi! Meet everyone's best friend, Andi! She's a super sweet 12 lb dog looking for a forever home and family to adopt her and her brother. Like her brother Amos, she is a beautiful white Maltese/poodle mix and has a great temperament. She gets along with everyone and needs more experience with cats, but kids and other dogs are golden! Andi enjoys walks and does well on the leash and could keep your lap warm or help you walk out your frustrations and then cuddle with you to help you forget all your troubles!!

Story
Once Duke has become comfortable, and you with him, Duke can be an absolute sweetheart. His little tail wags to see someone he loves, and he'll jump, and spin around in excitement at seeing you, and in anticipation of being pet, loved and, oh, of course, fed. You really know you've won his heart when he starts giving you kisses. When held under his legs, with his back against your chest, he will tilt his head back to rest against you, and under your chin, soaking up the love and appreciating you in a very special way.In a low energy, mellow environment where he is the only animal, Duke will love his owner/s right back, and will happily sit on your lap while you Netflix and chill. And your own heart will melt when he lets you know that you have helped this very delicate little boy to feel like he is finally, and furever, home.That said, Duke is a very special, and medically fragile, dog who will require a very special kind of person.Duke's vision is failing, and he has a occasional bouts of what appears to be minor paralysis or nerve related issues affecting mobility. Unfortunately, this can make him reactive, so he does not get along we with other animals, at least not quickly, largely because he is unaware of their approach.Even people need to be careful, and slow in their approach with him. So, no kids, and no other pets.Please don't let his challenges dissuade you. The person who adopts Duke will be helping him realize a quality of life that he has never known, and sorely deserves, and he will truly love you in return. Are you that person? I sure hope so. He's longing for that connection. Apply here: https://form.jotform.com/60136667457159 ##1774191##

Story
Hello there, I'm Sandy Sue. I'm 4 years old. I traveled here from California. I recently had surgery to remove some lumps and bumps. Nothing serious. I'm good now. I was spayed at the same time. My hair was so matted I had to have it cut off. The vet did it, so I don't look exactly right, but I've had a little touch up since I got here, so I look pretty darn cute. I've been through kind of a lot, but I still have a heart full of love and a spirit as sweet as honey. I'm known for my gentle nature and mellow vibes. I'm always up for a friendly chat, even if it's just wagging my tail in response to your day. I love long walks, cozy naps, and the simple joy of companionship. I believe in spreading love, one wag at a time. Adopting me won't just bring a pet into your home, it'll bring a friend, a confidante, a beacon of joy. So, won't you open your heart and home for me? Go to OFOSA.ORG and fill out the application so my foster mom can contact you.
