Meet 1 year old, 10 lb fluffy Pug/Spaniel mix, Wednesday. Wednesday came to us from a good samaritan who rescued her and a second dog after being abandoned. Wednesday is a typical puppy - chewing, playing nonstop, and all-around being an active dog. Wednesday does have fear of strangers and large dogs. She will do best in a home where she gets lots of attention, and has another active small dog as a companion, as she gets depressed without a companion pup. Apply to meet her at adoptocpets.org/adopt

Story
Vader was adopted from us 6 years ago and recently returned. His skin was in bad shape but he was still such a happy little dude. A petite little bulldog at only 44#. We have had him on a regimen for his skin, regular baths, oral meds, salon dog food and he is doing great!  His smell no longer enters the room before he does!  He is the sweetest most wonderful bulldog. He’s fun, cute, stubborn and all the other things you would associate with the breed. We feel like we failed him the first time he was adopted out, so he needs someone that really knows and loves this breed. Someone that enjoys the maintenance they need on the regular.  If you are that person please fill out our application at www.carmaoc.org. You can call or text any questions you have as well. February 4, 2026, 7:59 pm
