Miniature Poodle puppies and dogs in Corvallis, Oregon

We have a transport leaving at the end of October 2026 from where we are located in Southern California to NorCal, OR, and surrounding states as needed for our adopting families where we bring our dogs all the way to their homes 💗 For peace of mind we never ask for anything up front. The adoption fee along with your share of travel costs will be due the day we arrive in person ultimately finalizing the adoption then and there with you. We would love to add Lacey to our trip for the right family 😊 Meet Lacey, our beautiful Cavapoo girl, born November 11, 2024, weighing 16.2 pounds of pure happiness, love, and personality! She is fully grown, at a wonderfully healthy weight, and has one of those extraordinary little spirits that makes it nearly impossible to be around her without smiling. 🩷 There are some dogs you meet who take a little time to introduce themselves, and then there is Lacey, who has absolutely never met a stranger in her life! 😂 I will never forget the very first moment I met her. Her mom was holding her in her arms, and Lacey was so overcome with excitement at the sight of someone new that she quite literally jumped out of her arms, ran straight over to me, and immediately rolled onto her back, belly up, asking for belly rubs as though we had been best friends for years! And the moment she received those belly rubs? She jumped right into my arms, completely content and convinced that was exactly where she belonged. That was my introduction to Lacey, and I couldn’t have imagined a more perfect representation of the beautiful soul she is. She is HAPPY. Not just occasionally happy or happy when something exciting is happening, but genuinely, wholeheartedly happy to be alive, to be loved, and to have someone to share her world with. She has this incredible way of making every interaction feel like the best part of her day, whether you’re greeting her after being away, inviting her onto the couch, or simply walking into the same room. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious, and the love she gives is so abundant that I truly believe she is meant to transform someone’s world in a way only she can, with enough love to carry through a few lifetimes and then some. 🩷 Lacey is incredibly friendly, outgoing, affectionate, and spirited, with a personality that is as welcoming as it is joyful. She absolutely adores people and does beautifully with men, women, and children alike. She is equally wonderful with other dogs and cats, making her a lovely candidate for a home with existing furry family members or one where she can enjoy being someone’s one and only. She is naturally social and loves the company of others, but what makes her especially wonderful is how easily she settles into whatever is happening around her. She can be your little adventure companion, happily accompanying you as you venture out into the world, explore somewhere new, or enjoy a beautiful afternoon together. She can just as easily be your lounging companion, curled up beside you while you watch a movie, catch up on your favorite show, or simply enjoy a quiet day at home. She loves to play, loves affection, and loves being included, but she doesn’t need every moment to revolve around excitement. If your day is full of activity, she will happily embrace it. If your day calls for rest, she will be just as content sharing those peaceful moments with you. She has a wonderful ability to adapt to the rhythm of the people she loves, finding joy in the simplest things because, to Lacey, being together is what matters most. She is also a beautifully mannered girl with an established foundation of training that makes sharing a home with her such a pleasure. Lacey is house trained and understands our daily potty routine wonderfully. When we ask the dogs who needs to go outside, she will happily head out if she needs to relieve herself, and if she doesn’t, she simply stays behind. She understands what is being asked of her and has been wonderfully consistent with her routine here. She is crate trained as well and sleeps peacefully in her crate throughout the entire night. She settles in comfortably and understands that nighttime is for resting. While she does beautifully with this arrangement, she is certainly not limited to it. If her future family would prefer having her sleep in a little bed beside theirs, or even snuggled up in bed with them, I believe she would happily welcome either arrangement. She is such an easygoing, adaptable little girl who simply wants to be part of her person’s life, whatever that may look like. Lacey also has the beautiful, poodle-like coat that so many families appreciate in a Cavapoo. Her coat has the soft, curly characteristics of her Poodle heritage and is considered hypoallergenic, making her a wonderful possibility for families seeking a lower-shedding companion, although no dog is guaranteed to be completely allergen-free. As with any Poodle-type coat, regular brushing and professional grooming will be important to keeping her comfortable, healthy, and looking her very best. Her story before coming to us is one of love and a difficult but selfless decision. Lacey was very much loved by her previous owner, who found herself carrying responsibilities that left very little time for the companion she adored. She worked during the day and spent her evenings caring for her mother, leaving her with hardly any time to give Lacey the companionship and attention she knew she deserved. It wasn’t that Lacey was unwanted or that she had done anything wrong. Quite the opposite. Her mom recognized that this beautiful girl had so much love to give and deserved a life where someone could be present for all those little moments that make having a dog so special. Rather than continuing to let the demands of life keep them apart, she made the difficult decision to ask us to take Lacey into our care and find her the incredible person, home, and life she knew was waiting for her. It was a decision made with Lacey’s happiness at heart, and one we are honored to help fulfill. Since joining our family here at Bread of Life K9 Refuge, Lacey has continued to show us just how remarkable she is. She has been surrounded by love, companionship, structure, and daily opportunities to enjoy life while we prepare her for the next beautiful chapter of her story. Her natural confidence, wonderful social skills, and affectionate nature have made her such a joy to have with us. She is one of those dogs who reminds you that sometimes the greatest gifts in life arrive on four little paws, with a wagging tail and a heart that has absolutely no idea how to love halfway. Her veterinary care has been completed, and she is ready to begin her next chapter with a wonderful foundation of health and wellness. Lacey has been spayed, microchipped, and is current on her vaccinations. She has also received a thorough veterinary examination, which went beautifully, including an evaluation of her dental health. Her teeth were found to be in excellent condition, with no dental concerns noted during her examination. At 16.2 pounds, she is fully grown and maintaining a healthy weight. What I hope most for Lacey is that she finds someone who will treasure the very thing that makes her so special: her enormous capacity to love. Someone who will appreciate her enthusiastic greetings, her spontaneous requests for belly rubs, her desire to be close, and the way she can turn even the most ordinary day into something worth celebrating. She doesn’t need a life filled with extravagant adventures or constant entertainment. She simply deserves a life where she is included, cherished, and given the opportunity to love her person as wholeheartedly as she knows how. I can already imagine the happiness she will bring to her future home. The excitement when her family walks through the door, the little moments of laughter that come from her playful personality, the peaceful evenings spent curled up together, and the countless memories that will be made simply by sharing life with her. Lacey has so much of herself to give, and the beautiful thing about her is that she gives it so freely. She doesn’t wait to be invited to love you. She just does. Completely, joyfully, and without hesitation. 🩷 Her adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of her adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/lacey-3 It helps cover her completed veterinary care, including her spay, vaccinations, microchipping, and comprehensive health examination, along with the months of daily care, training, grooming, and socialization we have lovingly invested in her throughout her time with us. Lacey is ready for someone to love her just as wholeheartedly as she will love them, and I have no doubt that whoever is blessed enough to call this beautiful girl theirs will wonder how they ever lived without her. 🩷

We would love to add Sadie to our trip for the right family 😊 Meet Sadie, our beautiful Cockapoo girl, born June 6, 2024, weighing 13.7 pounds of sweetness, quiet devotion, and a heart that has so much love waiting to be given. 🩷 She is fully grown, at a wonderfully healthy weight, and has a beautiful coat with a soft wave and gentle curl to it, reflecting a little more of her Cocker Spaniel heritage while still having the lovely non-shedding qualities that make Cockapoos so special. There is something incredibly beautiful about a dog who doesn’t give her heart away to just anyone. Not because she doesn’t have an abundance of love to offer, but because she wants to know who you are first. She wants to understand the world around her, feel safe in your presence, and discover for herself that the person standing before her is someone she can trust. And that is our sweet Sadie. 🩷 Sadie is naturally observant, thoughtful, and wonderfully intelligent. She is the kind of girl who notices everything, from the people entering a room to the other dogs moving around her, and even the little sounds that most of us wouldn’t think twice about. She likes to understand her surroundings and the individuals who share them with her. Rather than immediately running up to someone unfamiliar, she prefers to take a moment to observe, allowing herself the opportunity to become comfortable at her own pace. But what makes Sadie so incredibly special is what happens once she decides that you are her person. That little barrier she keeps around her heart begins to disappear, and in its place emerges one of the sweetest, most loving, affectionate companions you could ever hope to know. She looks at you differently. She seeks you out, wants to be close, and begins inviting herself into the little moments of your day. There is a certain admiration in her eyes when she looks up at someone she loves, and I cannot begin to explain how meaningful it feels to be on the receiving end of it. I see that look from her every single day 🩷 Sometimes it’s when I’m sitting at my desk, working through the responsibilities of the day, and I look down to find Sadie quietly resting nearby. She doesn’t demand my attention or make a fuss about being noticed. She is simply happy to be close. Other times, when she realizes I have a free moment, she’ll make her way over, gently place her little paws on my lap, and look up at me as if to ask whether she might be included in whatever comes next. And of course, how could I possibly say no to that sweet face? 🩷 Those are the moments when you realize just how much love she has inside her. She doesn’t need grand gestures or constant entertainment. She wants companionship, reassurance, and the comfort of knowing that she belongs somewhere, with someone who understands her. One of the things I love most about Sadie is the trust she has developed in us. Because she is naturally cautious with unfamiliar things, there are moments when a new sound or something she hasn’t encountered before will catch her attention. She isn’t a barker and doesn’t react by making a scene. Instead, she’ll quietly observe, and if she’s uncertain, she will come back to the person she trusts, almost as though she’s asking them to investigate whatever has caught her attention. It’s such a sweet quality, and one that speaks volumes about the relationship she builds with her person. Once Sadie trusts you, you become her safe place. The one she looks to for reassurance, comfort, confidence, and guidance when the world feels a little unfamiliar. And as she continues to learn that she can rely on you, those moments of uncertainty become opportunities for her confidence to grow. Sadie is still a young girl with so much of life ahead of her, and I truly believe that in the right home, with the right person, she will continue flourishing just as beautifully as she has here with us. She has already made wonderful progress during her time in our care. We have watched her become increasingly comfortable, affectionate, and willing to experience the world around her. She is a happy, loving little girl beneath that initial caution, and with patience, consistency, and gentle encouragement, her beautiful personality continues to reveal itself more and more. She does wonderfully with other dogs and cats alike and offers lovely companionship to the animals around her. She is comfortable sharing her space and has shown us that she can coexist beautifully with furry friends. However, I want to emphasize that Sadie does not need another animal in her future home to be happy. While she enjoys their company, the relationship she builds with her person is what truly makes her feel secure and fulfilled. I could easily envision her thriving as someone’s one and only, receiving the individual attention and companionship she so deeply appreciates. I would especially love to see Sadie in a home with a calmer, more predictable atmosphere, where she can settle into a routine and continue building her confidence without feeling overwhelmed. That doesn’t mean she needs a life without adventure or new experiences. Quite the opposite! I would love for her to continue discovering all the wonderful things the world has to offer. She simply needs someone who understands that confidence is built through positive experiences, patience, and trust rather than being rushed into situations before she is ready. And once she knows she can count on you, I believe there will be very little she won’t eventually be willing to experience by your side. Sadie is house trained and has been wonderfully consistent with our daily routine. When we ask her to go outside to use the restroom, she understands what we’re asking and does very well. She has established good habits here, and I would encourage her future family to continue communicating with her and maintaining a consistent schedule as she settles into her new surroundings. She is also crate trained and sleeps peacefully in her crate throughout the entire night. She settles in comfortably and has no trouble resting until morning. While she does beautifully with this arrangement, I can certainly imagine her enjoying a little bed beside yours, or even sharing your bed if that’s something you prefer. I have a feeling she would be more than happy to agree to any arrangement that allows her to be a little closer to the person she loves! 🩷 Her leash training has been coming along beautifully, and she genuinely enjoys going for walks. It’s one of the ways we have been able to help her experience new things while continuing to build her confidence. She enjoys exploring alongside someone familiar, and with each positive experience, she becomes a little more comfortable with the world beyond what she already knows. I would love to see her future family continue those walks, allowing her to explore and discover new surroundings while always knowing she has someone she trusts beside her. She also does very well during her grooming appointments. Our groomer has gotten to know her sweet personality, and Sadie seems to believe that grooming appointments should include plenty of affection along the way! She enjoys being loved on so much that our groomer makes sure to give her little snuggles between the different parts of her appointment. 😊 It’s another beautiful example of how affectionate she becomes once she’s comfortable with someone. Sadie’s journey to us began when her previous family experienced a change in their living circumstances. They had moved into a smaller apartment and, unfortunately, found themselves unable to afford the additional pet fees required to keep her there with them. As much as they would have loved to continue sharing their lives with her, the financial responsibilities associated with their new home made that impossible. They made the difficult decision to entrust her to our care, hoping we could provide her with the stability and love she needed while finding a family who could offer her a permanent place to call home. Sadie has now been with us for approximately two months, and during that time, we have had the privilege of getting to know the wonderful little soul behind those thoughtful eyes. We have given her the space to become comfortable, encouraged her through unfamiliar experiences, continued her daily training and socialization, and most importantly, allowed her to discover that she is safe, loved, and understood. Her veterinary care has also been completed, and she has received a wonderful overall report from our veterinarian. Sadie has been spayed, is current on her vaccinations, and has been microchipped. She underwent a thorough veterinary examination and was cleared to begin looking for a home of her own, with a health certificate issued by our veterinarian. During her examination, our vet noticed some very mild redness in her ears consistent with a possible allergy flare-up. There were no other visible signs of allergies elsewhere, and her ears otherwise looked very good. As a precaution, she received an allergy injection, along with Posatex, a medicated ear treatment applied to both ears to address the remaining irritation. The redness resolved following treatment, and we have not experienced any further flare-ups during her time with us. Sadie has been doing wonderfully on her lamb-protein diet, and while we suspect her previous diet may have contributed to the irritation, we cannot say that with certainty. At this time, there are no ongoing symptoms that have caused us concern, although I would encourage her future family to remain mindful of her history and monitor for any recurrence, as allergies can sometimes be seasonal or related to environmental or dietary factors. Aside from that mild episode, her examination went beautifully, and she has been doing wonderfully. At 13.7 pounds, she is fully grown, maintaining a healthy weight, and ready for the next chapter of her life. What I hope most for Sadie is that someone will read her story and recognize the incredible gift that comes with earning the trust of a dog like her. She may not be the little girl who runs into your arms the very first moment she meets you. She may need a little time to understand who you are, to become familiar with your voice, your routine, and the way you move through the world. She may quietly watch you for a while before deciding that you’re someone she can completely let her guard down with. But when that moment comes, when she looks at you with those beautiful eyes and you realize that she has chosen to trust you, I promise there is something about that kind of love that stays with you. I know because I have experienced it with her myself. 🩷 I have seen the admiration in her eyes, felt the love behind those little paws resting on my lap, and watched her confidence grow as she has learned to look to us for comfort and reassurance. And I cannot wait for someone else to experience that same beautiful connection with her. Sadie doesn’t need someone to change who she is. She needs someone who will appreciate her for exactly who she is while gently helping her discover all that she is capable of becoming. Someone who will celebrate her little victories, offer encouragement when she needs it, and understand that the most meaningful relationships are often the ones that take a little time to grow. She is sweet, affectionate, intelligent, beautifully mannered, and has so much love waiting to be shared. All she needs is a person willing to meet her where she is and walk beside her as she continues to blossom. Her adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of her adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/sadie-2 It helps cover her completed veterinary care, including her spay, vaccinations, microchipping, allergy injection, medicated ear treatment, comprehensive veterinary examination, and health certificate, along with the months of daily care, training, socialization, and grooming we have invested in her throughout her time with us. Some dogs enter your life and love you immediately. Others take their time, quietly learning your heart before offering you theirs. Sadie is the kind of girl who reminds us that sometimes the most beautiful love stories begin with a little patience, a lot of understanding, and one very special soul who finally realizes she is home. 🩷🩷🩷

We have a transport leaving at the end of October 2026 from where we are located in Southern California to NorCal, OR, and surrounding states as needed for our adopting families where we bring our dogs all the way to their homes 💗 For peace of mind we never ask for anything up front. The adoption fee along with your share of travel costs will be due the day we arrive in person ultimately finalizing the adoption then and there with you. We would love to add Lillie to our trip for the right family 😊 Meet Lillie, our beautiful little Maltipoo girl, who at just a year and a half old is quite possibly one of the sweetest little souls you could ever have the pleasure of knowing. 🩷 She is naturally small and petite, with a beautiful white coat kissed with the softest hints of apricot, and a personality that makes you wish you could somehow bottle up all the love she has to give and carry it with you everywhere you go. If I could describe Lillie in the simplest way possible, I would tell you to imagine your favorite slice of pie, freshly baked and served warm from your grandmother’s oven. You know that feeling? The comfort, the sweetness, the familiarity, and the happiness that comes with something made entirely out of love? Well, that is Lillie, served up fresh and warm every single moment of every single day! 🩷 She is sweetness in its purest form, wrapped up in four tiny paws and a heart that seems to have been made for the sole purpose of loving someone. Lillie is, without question, a people dog. She absolutely adores human companionship, and there is nowhere in this world she would rather be than right beside the person she loves. Whether that means curled up in your arms, resting comfortably beside you, accompanying you around the house, or simply keeping you company while you go about your day, she finds her greatest happiness in being included. She isn’t demanding in the sense that she needs you to entertain her every waking moment. In fact, she is quite content to go about her day while you tend to the responsibilities of yours. She will happily settle into a comfortable spot, enjoy one of her favorite toys, or lounge nearby while you work. But every so often, you’ll catch her checking to make sure you’re still close, as though she’s simply reassuring herself that her favorite person hasn’t wandered too far away. And when she realizes you have a moment to spare? Well, she will happily accept every bit of affection you’re willing to offer! She loves being held, snuggled, carried, and loved on. She has such a naturally affectionate personality and seems to find genuine comfort in physical closeness. There is something incredibly sweet about how completely content she becomes when she’s nestled in your arms, as though the entire world could keep turning around her and she wouldn’t have a single concern as long as she was right there with you. Because companionship means so much to Lillie, I would especially love to see her in a home with someone who is retired, works from home, has a flexible daily schedule, or perhaps even has the opportunity to bring her along to the office. She would make an absolutely wonderful little companion for someone whose lifestyle allows her to be included in much of their day. And when I say included, I really do mean included! 😂 Lillie has already shown us that she is perfectly happy accompanying us in a doggy carrier when we’re out and about. If your lifestyle allows for a little companion to tag along on errands or outings where pets are welcome, she would absolutely embrace that opportunity. She is small enough to make carrying her convenient, and she seems to think that being tucked into her carrier while remaining close to her person is a pretty wonderful arrangement. Of course, we understand that there will always be times when our dogs simply cannot come along, and Lillie has been learning that those moments are perfectly okay, too. We have been very intentional about helping her feel comfortable and secure when we need to step away from home. Before leaving, we make sure she has her favorite bed, a cozy blanket, familiar toys, and a few treats to enjoy while we’re gone. It’s become our little compromise with her. She may not get to accompany us on every outing, but she gets to settle into a familiar, comfortable space with some of her favorite things until we return. And she has done well with this routine. While I don’t believe Lillie would be happiest in a home where she is left alone for long stretches of the day, she certainly doesn’t require someone to be physically holding her every moment. She simply thrives on companionship, consistency, and knowing that the people she loves are part of her everyday life. She is not a high-energy dog whatsoever, which makes her such a lovely companion for someone looking for a peaceful, affectionate little friend to share their days with. She enjoys being involved in whatever is happening, but she doesn’t need constant activity to feel fulfilled. A comfortable place to rest, a little time to play, a nice walk, and plenty of opportunities for affection are the kinds of things that make her world complete. And if you’ve been going through your days feeling as though something is missing, I have a pretty good feeling that what you need is a little dose of Lillie! 🙃🩷 She also has the most adorable playful side, and I absolutely love seeing it come to life. Lillie has a special fondness for soft plush toys and genuinely enjoys entertaining herself with them. Watching her become silly and playful is such a joy because she seems to put her whole little heart into those moments. She has this beautiful way of finding happiness in the simplest things, and her playful personality brings such a wonderful balance to her otherwise calm, affectionate nature. Lillie is also wonderful with other animals and would happily welcome the opportunity to become a little sister to another dog or even a cat. She is comfortable sharing her space and enjoys the companionship of other furry friends. However, she certainly doesn’t need another animal in her life to be happy. If her future home consisted of just Lillie and her person, I truly believe her heart would be every bit as full. For her, it’s not about how many companions she has, but rather the love and connection she shares with them. She is house trained and has done beautifully with the routine we have established here. When we ask her to go outside to use the restroom, she understands what we’re asking and does very well. There is one little thing about her potty routine that I think is especially endearing, and that is her preference for having someone nearby while she’s outside. Lillie doesn’t particularly enjoy being left outdoors by herself, and thankfully, she doesn’t take very long to do her business. We simply accompany her outside or remain close to the door so we can welcome her back in as soon as she’s finished. She seems to genuinely appreciate knowing someone is there waiting for her, and it’s such a small gesture that means so much to her. I would love for her future family to continue offering her that same reassurance, especially while she is becoming familiar with her new home and surroundings. She is crate trained as well, although we have discovered that she much prefers sleeping in a comfortable little bed of her own. So, naturally, we came to an agreement! 😂 Lillie gets to sleep in her bed beside ours at night, and she has been very happy with this arrangement. She gets the comfort of knowing we’re close while still having her own cozy space to rest. I believe she would absolutely love to continue sleeping beside her future family in a bed of her own. Now, if you’re someone who enjoys having your dog sleep in bed with you, I have no doubt Lillie would consider that the ultimate expression of love. Being invited to snuggle up beside her favorite person all night would probably be her idea of heaven! But I do have to offer one little word of advice: if you invite this girl into your bed, make sure it’s an arrangement you’re prepared to love for years to come, because I have a feeling once she discovers just how wonderful that is, she won’t be volunteering to sleep anywhere else! 😎🩷 Lillie does beautifully on leash and genuinely enjoys going for walks. She is such a pleasant little companion to have beside you, and I would love to see her continue enjoying regular outings with her future family. She also does wonderfully on car rides and has been a great companion during our trips around town. Whether she’s accompanying us on a little drive or heading out for an afternoon adventure, she seems happiest simply knowing she’s been invited along. She also enjoys her grooming appointments and does very well with our groomer during her spa days. When Lillie first came into our care, she had some matting throughout her coat that required us to have her clipped shorter than we ordinarily would have preferred. Her comfort and the health of her skin were our priority, so we made sure those areas were properly addressed. As her beautiful coat grows back, she’ll begin to regain that soft, fluffy Maltipoo appearance, and I can only imagine how adorable she’ll be with a little more length to her hair. Although, truthfully, I think she’s absolutely beautiful just as she is right now. Another lovely quality about Lillie is that she is not a habitual barker. She is generally quiet and content, but she is also incredibly smart and has learned how to communicate her needs with us. If she needs to go outside or notices that her water bowl needs to be refilled, she has her own little ways of letting us know. She pays attention to the people around her and is wonderfully engaging, making it easy to understand what she’s trying to tell us once you become familiar with her personality. There is a genuine intelligence behind that sweet little face, and I think her future family will have so much fun discovering all the little ways she communicates and connects with them. Lillie’s story before coming to us is one that truly pulls at the heart. Her previous owner loved her very much, but unfortunately became seriously ill and found herself needing to spend significant amounts of time in and out of the hospital receiving medical treatments. With no family or friends available to help care for Lillie during those absences, she was faced with an incredibly difficult situation. She loved her little girl and wanted nothing more than to keep her close, but her health had reached a point where she could no longer provide the companionship and daily care that Lillie needed. With each hospital stay, Lillie was spending more time alone, and her owner could see how much that was affecting a dog who simply wanted to be near the person she loved. Rather than allowing that to become Lillie’s everyday life, she made the heartbreaking decision to put her little girl’s happiness and well-being first. She reached out to us and asked if we would welcome Lillie into our care and help find her a home where she could once again enjoy the companionship, security, and affection she so deeply craved. And that is how this beautiful little soul found her way to our family. 🩷 Since coming to Bread of Life K9 Refuge, Lillie has been surrounded by love, companionship, and the daily routines that help her feel secure. We have had the opportunity to learn her preferences, continue building on her training, encourage her independence when necessary, and discover all the wonderful little things that make her who she is. She has reminded us that sometimes a dog’s greatest wish isn’t a big backyard, endless toys, or a life filled with extravagant adventures. Sometimes, all they truly want is someone to share the ordinary moments with. Someone to sit beside while they work, someone to accompany on a walk, someone to snuggle with at the end of the day, and someone whose presence makes everything feel right in the world. Lillie’s veterinary care is scheduled to be completed within the coming week, prior to her adoption. She will be spayed, brought current on her yearly vaccinations, microchipped, and receive a thorough veterinary examination to ensure she is healthy and ready for her next chapter. Her adoption listing will be updated once those appointments have been completed, including any additional findings or treatments recommended by our veterinarian, such as a dental cleaning if one is determined to be necessary. We believe in making sure our dogs receive the care they need before beginning their new lives, and Lillie will be no exception. What I hope most for this little girl is that she finds someone who has been wishing for exactly the kind of love she has to offer. Someone who looks forward to having a little shadow following them from room to room. Someone who doesn’t mind pausing what they’re doing to scoop her up for a cuddle. Someone who will smile when they see her happily entertaining herself with a plush toy, appreciate the way she checks to make sure they’re nearby, and understand that being included in everyday life is what makes her happiest. She doesn’t need someone to keep her entertained from morning until night, and she doesn’t need a life where every day is filled with something exciting. She simply needs a person who enjoys companionship as much as she does, someone who will welcome her into their routine and give her the opportunity to be the affectionate, devoted little girl she was always meant to be. Lillie has already experienced what it feels like to miss someone she loves, and I would be so happy to see her find a home where those long, lonely days become a thing of the past. A home where she can settle into a beautiful routine, feel secure in her surroundings, and spend her days knowing she belongs. Her adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of her adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/lillie-1 It helps cover her upcoming spay, yearly vaccinations, microchipping, comprehensive veterinary examination, and the daily care, training, grooming, and socialization invested in her throughout her time with us. Her adoption fee may be adjusted if additional veterinary care is recommended or required at the time of her examination or spay, and her listing will be updated accordingly. Lillie is the kind of little girl who will make a house feel warmer, ordinary days feel sweeter, and the quiet moments in life feel a little less quiet. And just like that warm slice of pie from your grandmother’s oven, she has a way of making everything feel a little more like home. 🩷

We have a transport leaving at the end of October 2026 from where we are located in Southern California to NorCal, OR, and surrounding states as needed for our adopting families where we bring our dogs all the way to their homes 💗 For peace of mind we never ask for anything up front. The adoption fee along with your share of travel costs will be due the day we arrive in person ultimately finalizing the adoption then and there with you. We would love to add Jazzy to our trip for the right family 😊 Meet Jazzy, our beautiful, petite Mini Goldendoodle girl, born April 4, 2024, weighing 29.8 pounds of sweetness, affection, and the most wonderful companionship you could ever hope to find. 🩷 She is fully grown, at a wonderfully healthy weight, and naturally smaller in stature, with a lovely little frame that makes her such a special representation of her breed. But as beautiful as she is on the outside, it is the heart behind those sweet eyes that has truly captured ours. Jazzy is one of those dogs whose love isn’t always announced with grand gestures. Sometimes it comes quietly, in the form of a little head resting in your lap, a pair of loving eyes gazing up at you, or a gentle kiss offered simply because she is happy you’re there. I cannot tell you how many times I have looked down to find her standing beside me, her head resting comfortably against my lap, patiently waiting for me to acknowledge her. And the moment I do, even if it’s only for a few seconds, she is completely content. There is something incredibly endearing about a dog who finds so much happiness in the smallest moments of affection, and Jazzy has mastered the art of making those moments feel extraordinary. She is incredibly sweet, loving, affectionate, and wonderfully personable. She enjoys meeting new people and has been amazing with men, women, and children alike. One of the sweetest things we have discovered about her is the special fondness she has taken to my almost four-month-old grandson. She has been absolutely wonderful around him, and watching her gentle, affectionate nature shine through in those moments has only made us fall more in love with her. She has such a beautiful way of connecting with the people around her, and I truly believe she will form an incredibly meaningful bond with the family fortunate enough to welcome her home. Before coming to us, Jazzy lived on a farm surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes. She shared her world with other dogs, pigs, goats, chickens, horses, and even a few barn cats! Because of this, she has grown up with an incredible variety of animal companions and has been wonderfully comfortable around them. Her familiarity with farm life has given her experiences that many dogs never have, and she has carried that confidence and adaptability beautifully into our care. While Jazzy does wonderfully with other animals and could certainly thrive in a home with existing pets, I want to share something equally important about her. She does not need another dog or animal companion to feel fulfilled. In fact, some of the most beautiful moments we have shared with her have happened during our one-on-one time together. There is a certain excitement that comes alive in her when she realizes she has someone’s undivided attention. Her eyes brighten, her affection becomes even more apparent, and you can almost feel how much it means to her to be someone’s focus, even for a little while. I genuinely believe Jazzy would be just as happy being the center of someone’s world as she would be sharing her home with other animals. Perhaps even more so, depending on the life waiting for her. There is something so special about watching a dog discover that she doesn’t have to compete with the world around her for affection, that sometimes she gets to be the reason someone stops what they’re doing, sits down, and simply enjoys being with her. And Jazzy deserves to experience that kind of love every single day. 🩷 She has a wonderful balance to her personality that makes her such a lovely companion for many different lifestyles. Jazzy loves to play, enjoys being active, and will happily keep up with a family whose days are filled with outings, adventures, and things to do. She has a beautiful enthusiasm for exploring the world and especially enjoys the opportunities she gets to venture out with us. Whether it’s heading out for a walk, spending time outdoors, or accompanying her person on a new adventure, she approaches those experiences with genuine curiosity and happiness. Yet she is equally content when life slows down. She has a naturally calm, patient side and does beautifully simply hanging out while we go about our day. She doesn’t need to be constantly entertained or have something happening around her every moment. She is happy to lounge nearby, observe what we’re doing, and patiently wait for the next opportunity to be included. That balance between her playful spirit and peaceful companionship is one of the qualities I appreciate most about her. Jazzy is also a beautifully mannered girl who has done wonderfully with the daily routines and training we have established here. She is house trained and understands when we ask her to go outside. She has been very responsive to our verbal communication, and one thing I would absolutely encourage her future family to continue is simply talking to her! 🙃 She genuinely seems to appreciate being spoken to and included in the conversation, and she responds so nicely when we communicate what we would like her to do. Whether we’re asking her if she needs to go outside or inviting her to come along with us, she pays attention and has shown us how well she understands the consistency of our routine. She is crate trained as well and sleeps peacefully in her crate throughout the entire night without fuss. She settles in comfortably and has been wonderfully content with this arrangement. However, I could easily see her transitioning to a little bed of her own beside yours if that is what you prefer. I have a feeling she wouldn’t need much convincing to accept any sleeping arrangement that brought her a little closer to the person she loves! She is adaptable, easygoing, and simply happy to have a place where she feels secure and loved. Her leash manners have been coming along beautifully, and she has been doing very well on our walks together. She enjoys getting out and seeing the world beyond our home, taking in new surroundings and sharing those experiences with us. I would love to see her future family continue building on this wonderful foundation, as I believe regular walks and opportunities to explore will be something she truly looks forward to. Another quality that makes Jazzy such a pleasure to have around is that she is not a habitual barker. Having spent much of her life on a ranch, she has been exposed to all kinds of sounds, animals, activity, and everyday commotion. She is quite accustomed to the world being busy around her and generally takes it all in stride. She may occasionally alert us if she notices something unfamiliar, as many dogs naturally do, but she is not one to spend her days barking at every little sound or movement. Jazzy’s story before joining our family is one that comes from a place of genuine love and the realization that sometimes the life we can provide isn’t necessarily the life a dog deserves to experience. Her previous family loved her immensely. She was cared for, surrounded by animals, and had the freedom and experiences that come with growing up on a farm. But as time went on, with so many animals depending on them and so many daily responsibilities demanding their attention, they began to recognize that Jazzy was becoming just another animal among the many they cared for. Not because she wasn’t loved, but because there were only so many hours in the day and so much of themselves they could give. And Jazzy deserved more than simply being one of many. They wanted her to have the opportunity to grow beyond the boundaries of their farm. To travel, to explore new places, to experience new things, and most importantly, to be someone’s truly special companion. They imagined a life where she could be included in everyday moments, where her presence was not simply part of the routine but something genuinely treasured. A life where someone would look forward to coming home to her, making memories with her, and giving her the individual attention she so clearly enjoys. Recognizing that they couldn’t offer her everything they envisioned, they reached out to us and asked if we would bring her into our care and help find the wonderful home and person they knew was waiting for her. And so here we are, with this beautiful girl who has so much love to give and an entire future still waiting to unfold. 🩷 Since coming to Bread of Life K9 Refuge, Jazzy has been such a joy to know. She has shown us her playful side, her peaceful side, her wonderfully affectionate personality, and the quiet happiness she finds in simply being near someone who loves her. She has continued building on her training, enjoying companionship, and receiving the daily attention and care that allow us to know her as an individual rather than just another dog in our care. Her veterinary care has also been completed, and she has received a wonderful report from our veterinarian. Jazzy has been spayed, is current on her yearly vaccinations, and has been microchipped. She also received a dental cleaning and polishing, with no extractions necessary. Her teeth cleaned up beautifully, and she now has a fresh, healthy smile to go along with that sweet face of hers! She underwent a thorough veterinary examination and was cleared by our veterinarian to begin looking for a forever home of her own. At 29.8 pounds, she is fully grown and maintaining a healthy weight. What I would love most for Jazzy is a home where she gets to experience the beautiful difference between being loved and being someone’s whole world. Not that she needs to be the center of attention every waking moment, because she certainly doesn’t. She is far too patient and well-adjusted for that. But a home where her presence is celebrated, where someone notices that little head resting in their lap and takes a moment to love on her, where she is invited along for walks and adventures, and where the quiet evenings are just as meaningful as the exciting days. She would make a wonderful companion for someone who enjoys spending time outdoors, a family looking for a loving addition to their home, or someone simply hoping to find a loyal friend to share life’s ordinary and extraordinary moments with. She has already shown us how beautifully she can coexist with animals and people of all ages, and I believe her adaptability will allow her to settle wonderfully into a home where she is given the same love, patience, and consistency she has come to know here. There is a whole world waiting for Jazzy beyond the farm she once called home, and I cannot wait for her to discover it with someone who sees her for exactly who she is. A sweet girl who loves to give kisses, who finds comfort in being close, who is always ready for an adventure but never too busy to stop for affection, and who has spent her life surrounded by so many others while quietly waiting for the opportunity to become someone’s one very special girl. Her adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of her adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/jazzy-1 It helps cover her completed veterinary care, including her spay, dental cleaning and polishing, yearly vaccinations, microchipping, and comprehensive veterinary examination, along with the daily care, training, grooming, and socialization invested in preparing her for her next chapter. Jazzy has already known what it means to be part of a big, busy world. Now it’s her turn to discover what it feels like to be someone’s favorite part of it. 🩷

We have a transport leaving at the end of October 2026 from where we are located in Southern California to NorCal, OR, and surrounding states as needed for our adopting families where we bring our dogs all the way to their homes 💗 For peace of mind we never ask for anything up front. The adoption fee along with your share of travel costs will be due the day we arrive in person ultimately finalizing the adoption then and there with you. We would love to add Bobby to our trip for the right family 😊 Meet Bobby, our handsome 2-year-and-5-month-old Cockapoo who is looking for his forever home. ❤️ Born April 18, 2024, Bobby is fully grown at just under 20 pounds, giving him such a great in-between size—not too small and not too big. He’s sturdy enough for everyday adventures and playtime with other dogs while still being a wonderfully manageable size to take along wherever life leads. Bobby came to us after his previous owner experienced the heartbreaking loss of her husband. With so many unexpected life changes following his passing, she needed to move in with her daughter and grandchildren, where there were already other dogs in the home. She loved Bobby very much and ultimately felt that everything changing around him wasn’t the life she wanted for him. She reached out to us so that we could give him some stability while finding the loving family and forever home he deserved. When Bobby arrived, his coat was significantly matted and unfortunately couldn’t be saved. His previous owner had been going through an incredibly difficult season in her life, and his grooming needs had simply gotten away from her. Our groomer gave Bobby a fresh start and took his coat down short, and his beautiful Cockapoo coat is already growing back in. With routine brushing and professional grooming moving forward, he’ll have all of that fluffy hair back before long. Bobby can be a little shy when he first meets someone new, but he’s really more observant than anything. He simply likes a moment to take you in, figure out who you are, and become familiar with you. He warms up quickly, and once you become his person, he will love you with absolutely everything he has to give. He’s a very sweet, happy boy who gets genuinely excited when he sees us walking through the door. His overall demeanor is quiet and serene, and he isn’t a barker. He’s also not a high-energy dog. Bobby loves his walks and enjoys being included in whatever his people are doing outside of the home, but he’s equally content spending a lazy afternoon lounging around with you for as long as you’d like. Bobby is wonderful with other dogs and has done beautifully with the different personalities and sizes he’s encountered while with us. He is house trained and does wonderfully about going outside when asked. He’s also great on road trips and around town, making him such an easy little companion to bring along. At night, Bobby sleeps peacefully through the entire night in his crate. He’s very comfortable with his bedtime routine, but I could absolutely see him transitioning to sleeping on a dog bed beside his future owner if that’s where they would eventually prefer him to be. He is wonderful at the groomers as well, which will be important throughout his life. Regular brushing and professional grooming will need to remain part of his routine to keep his coat healthy and comfortable. Bobby received a wonderful overall examination with our veterinarian and is fully vetted. He is neutered, microchipped, and current on his vaccines. His adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of his adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/bobby It helps cover all of his veterinary care, neuter, microchip, vaccinations, professional grooming, training, and the time and care invested in him while with us as we prepared him for his forever home. ❤️
