Story
MEET GLENN!!! Glenn is a fun-loving, resilient dog who came to us from the county shelter’s euthanasia list after being brought in as a stray. When he arrived, he was fearful and under-socialized, but he has made meaningful progress with patience and care. Glenn would do best as an only dog. While he can tolerate some dogs, he tends to be protective and truly thrives when he can have his people to himself. Leash training is still a work in progress, as Glenn has lingering fear due to being previously caught in a snare while living as a stray. Once he has time to warm up, Glenn is friendly with people and children. He prefers a calm, predictable home where he can feel safe, secure, and closely bonded with his humans. He is energetic, patient, and very treat-motivated and when his person settles down, he’s more than happy to curl up and be a devoted couch potato.  If you are interested in meeting this dog, please visit our website for our online application www.underdogaz.com   February 1, 2026, 8:23 pm

Story
PWRESCUE.ORG *PHOENIX METRO AREA ONLY* Meet Jilly — A Sweet, Shy Little Terrier With a Big Heart! Jilly is a 1½-year-old, 22-lb terrier mix (likely Parson Russell Terrier and Wire-Haired Fox Terrier) who came to our rescue when her previous owner could no longer care for her.  She is very gentle, sweet, and eager to please—but she approaches the world with a quiet, cautious nature. Jilly is a very shy and sensitive girl who needs time, patience, and consistency to feel safe. New environments and people can be overwhelming for her, and building trust does not happen overnight. She will need an adopter who truly understands that her confidence will grow slowly, at her own pace, with calm reassurance and positive experiences. Once she feels secure, her soft, affectionate personality begins to shine. Because she gains confidence from other dogs, Jilly requires a home with another well-balanced canine companion who can help guide her, model confidence, and show her that the world isn’t so scary. A secure, fenced yard is also required so she can explore and decompress in a safe space. Jilly gets along beautifully with other dogs, especially those with a gentle, low-key play style. With patience, gentle guidance, and time, she will continue to make steady progress and blossom into a more confident dog. She’s also got a charming little quirk—Jilly is a collector! Shoes and small “treasures” may quietly disappear and reappear in her bed, a sweet reminder that despite her shyness, she’s still a curious puppy figuring things out. Jilly will do best in a calm, understanding home that values kindness, routine, and patience. For the right person willing to let her set the pace and earn her trust, she will be an incredibly rewarding companion with so much love to give. If you’re looking for a tenderhearted soul who needs time, understanding, and a gentle hand to help her feel safe, Jilly may be the perfect match. Jilly is up to date on vaccinations, spayed and microchipped.  Her adoption fee is $350.00.   If you are interested in this sweetheart, please visit our website at:  https://pwrescue.org and click on the "Adoption Application" button to complete an application.  Pathways Home Animal Rescue February 1, 2026, 9:27 pm

Story
🐶 Coming Soon to a Couch Near You… Jepp: The Lone Ranger of Sassville Rated R for Ruff Behavior In a world full of pack dogs and polite tail wags… One dog dares to walk alone. He pulls. He pouts. He refuses to share his toys. Meet Jepp — a misunderstood genius with a leash and a dream. He’s not here to make friends. He’s here to make statements. He doesn’t play well with others. He doesn’t do cuddles. But he does do drama, suspicious glances at strangers, high-speed leash chases, and emotional breakthroughs over peanut butter. Jepp isn’t just a dog. He’s a one-dog revolution against boring walks, clingy puppies, and small talk. He’s not anti-social, he’s just anti-dog. Other pups cramp his style. He’s got the soul of a misunderstood poet, the swagger of a retired rockstar, and the leash manners of a caffeinated toddler… He’s got the attitude of a cat… And the emotional availability of a houseplant. These days, every dog wants belly rubs… Jepp dares to say, “No thanks, I’m good.” Get ready for the dog who doesn’t fetch. Doesn’t sit. And definitely doesn’t do playdates. One leash. Zero chill. All attitude. Jepp doesn’t do group projects; he is The Project. He’s a one-man wolf pack with a strong preference for being the only four-legged legend in every room. He’s still learning that humans aren’t just treat dispensers with legs. Give him time, snacks, and space — he’ll come around. Think of Jepp as a fixer-upper with a heart of gold buried under layers of “don’t touch me, until you know me.” Jepp thrives with older kids who understand sarcasm and don’t mind a little emotional mystery. Jepp believes walking is a competitive sport. He’s training for the Olympics — you just didn’t know you were his coach. He needs someone who can handle the legend… JEPP. Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear harnesses and pull like a freight train. If Jepp were a movie: It would not be on Lifetime, because Jepp does not do basic or basic cable. Save your pumpkin spice lattes for another, little dog. Jepp is a no cream & sugar in your black label dark roast by the gallon guy. If basic cable critics would dare to review Jepp: “Jepp delivers a performance so raw, it chews through the scenery — and your slippers.” — Barking Weekly “A tour de force of canine independence. Jepp doesn’t fetch — he commands.” — The Tail Times “If Clint Eastwood were a dog, he’d be Jepp.” — Paws & Popcorn Now accepting applications for foster or adopter co-stars. Must be teen-approved, emotionally resilient, and okay with being upstaged by a dog. Jepp’s looking for a temporary throne while he waits for his forever kingdom. If you have patience, dark humor, and a love for quirky underdogs (he is pretty short), Jepp might just be your next great adventure. My adoption fee is $350.00 and includes the following: -Spay/neuter surgery -All current vaccinations -Microchip -FREE wellness exam through VCA Animal Hospitals -$25 gift voucher from our friends at My Pet Market -One free private lesson in home or in shelter from Bryana.
