Precious is a sweetie who loves people and gets along great with other dogs and puppies.

Precious is just looking for someone to be her new best furend and we know that she will repay them with endless amounts of love and tail wags.

Story
Meet Doug — the perfect house guest with a gentle heart.Doug is the definition of a sweet, easygoing companion. He loves cuddling and is happiest when he’s close by, soaking up all the affection you’re willing to give. He’ll happily lean in for pets or wag his tail to let you know just how much your attention means to him.On walks, Doug is calm, attentive, and well-mannered on leash — a true pleasure to handle. At home, he enjoys playing with his toys and entertaining himself with a gentle, happy enthusiasm. When you’re away, you can rest easy knowing he’s fully potty-trained and content to relax on his bed for several hours.Doug already knows “sit” and is eager to keep learning, especially with a patient, encouraging person by his side. Around other dogs, he’s a bit unsure — curious, but cautious — and prefers to take things slow while he builds confidence at his own pace.If you’re looking for a lovable softie who brings comfort, calm, and quiet joy wherever he goes, Doug is your guy. With kindness, reassurance, and a cozy place to land, this slightly timid sweetheart is ready to blossom into a loyal, devoted best friend.

Baylee

German Shorthaired Pointer

Story
Elegant, affectionate, and just a little bit goofy — Baylee is a 5-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer who is as stunning in person as she is sweet. This petite beauty bonds quickly and loves being close to her people (she chose to sleep under the covers her very first night in foster). She’s sensitive, eager to please, and thrives with calm, consistent guidance. Her recall is excellent and after a good run in a secure field, she settles nicely at home. Baylee is fully housebroken (she’ll whine to go out), not a counter surfer, and easy to redirect. She can be a little anxious in new environments but improves quickly with structure and daily, breed-appropriate exercise. True to her pointer roots, she has a silly streak — shadows are fascinating, and she proudly drags her blankie around like a prize. She has lived with a dog and a child previously, has done well at dog parks, and is currently most comfortable with calmer dogs. Slow introductions are recommended. She’s been easily redirected from a cat and does not show unmanageable prey drive. She’s not fully crate-comfortable in foster yet but has crated successfully before and is improving with positive reinforcement. Baylee would do best in an active, steady home — ideally with someone familiar with sporting breeds — who will provide exercise, structure, and patience while she builds confidence. If you’re looking for a loyal, trainable, affectionate companion with classic pointer charm, Baylee may be your girl. Baylee is spayed and up-to-date on vaccines. The adoption fee for this dog is $425 which includes routine vetting and spay/neuter. PetConnect Rescue cannot guarantee the exact breed of any animal in our care. The breed listed is based on any background we may have been provided, and the general appearance of the animal at the time they enter our system. For more information, please email kmbberger@petconnectrescue.org. **If you're viewing this on Petfinder, please visit www.petconnectrescue.org to complete our non-binding application.**
