Story
Everly Buttercup Kiss seeks audience members to ooo and ahhh over her adorable tricks and cute antics. Estimated to be around 5 years old, this spectacular little black fluff ball appears to be a Pomeranian and German Spitz mix, though with rescue dogs that's simply our best educated guess. She may look like an elegant puff of fur from across the room, but don't let the glamorous coat fool you. Everly is equal parts circus performer, professional smooch distributor, road trip companion, and champion cuddle bug, all bundled into one wonderfully well-rounded little dog.
Go watch Everly on YouTube, then come right back to read more. You'll see her happy little tricks, her confident personality, and perhaps most importantly, the enthusiasm she brings to absolutely everything.

Everly has the kind of personality that makes living with a dog feel delightfully interactive. Ask for a trick and she's ready to perform. Sit? Easy. Shake? Of course. Spin? Happily. Down? She's got that covered too. She's food motivated, eager to be involved, and clearly enjoys learning just as much as she enjoys earning the treat at the end. Every day comes with its own tiny performance, and she's more than happy to be the star of the show.
When she's not showing off her repertoire, she's busy making sure everyone receives an appropriate number of kisses. Everly is wonderfully affectionate without being overwhelming. She genuinely enjoys being close to her people, happily snuggling beside you after an adventure or curling up in bed at night, which is admittedly her preferred sleeping arrangement. She'll tolerate a crate when needed during the day, but if given the choice, she'd much rather consider herself an official member of the cozy-spaces committee.
For all her playful personality, Everly is remarkably easy to live with. She's house trained, rides beautifully in the car, walks confidently on leash, and settles into new places with the kind of confidence that makes taking her almost anywhere feel effortless. She especially enjoys riding up front where she can supervise the journey, keep you company between destinations, and deliver her signature smooches every few miles.
She also has excellent social skills. Everly enjoys other dogs and is happy sharing her world with them, though she isn't particularly interested in turning every interaction into a play session. She prefers friendly coexistence over constant play, making her an easy addition to homes with other respectful dogs.
She hasn't had the opportunity to meet cats yet, but based on the gentle, easygoing nature we've seen from her, we suspect she'd likely approach a feline housemate with the same polite curiosity she shows everyone else, but any introductions should still be thoughtful and gradual.
Although she isn't currently living with young children, she's been wonderful around pre-teens, and from everything we've seen, we believe she'd likely make a lovely companion for a family with kind, respectful kids.
The only thing Everly isn't especially suited for is apartment living. She can be a vocal little commentator from time to time, and while we happen to think she has plenty of worthwhile opinions, shared walls may not appreciate hearing all of them.
Some dogs specialize in one thing. Everly somehow manages to be a little bit of everything. She's clever enough to keep teaching, affectionate enough to keep cuddling, confident enough to tag along almost anywhere, and easy enough to fit beautifully into everyday life. If you've been hoping for a dog with personality, polish, and just the right amount of theatrical flair, Everly is already warming up for her encore.

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about creating lasting matches between dog and family for long term success, and take the time to ensure each adoption is a fit through our matchmaking process.
At our 2 acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog’s growth and we enjoy seeing their progress!
We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap—ranging from $100–$1,000+ per dog.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
