Story
Meet Dwight Schrute. Yes, that Dwight Schrute — only shorter, fuzzier, and way more into cuddles than beets. And yes, we realize that identity theft is not a joke—but we couldn’t resist! His life motto is: “I am ready to face any challenges that might be foolish enough to face me.” Dwight is a lovable little pug mix with a whole lot of personality packed into his small frame. Dwight enjoys following you around the house like it’s his job — and let’s be honest, it probably is. He takes his self-assigned role of “assistant to the regional human” very seriously. He loves his daily morning stroll (about a mile!) and often rewards himself afterward with some spirited zoomies—because why not? He’s great with other dogs, though he sometimes loves them a bit too much and can get vocal if he sees a pup he can’t meet. He’s house-trained and will politely let you know when it’s time to go outside. Most of Dwight’s day is spent snoozing peacefully in his kitchen bed (roughly 20 hours per day!). Despite being an older gentleman, Dwight is incredibly friendly—with zero signs of the typical “little dog” attitude. He greets all humans with ease and enthusiasm, and his doggy hellos are… exuberant, to say the least. Despite moderate cataracts, some hearing loss, and a bit of stiffness (he just started carprofen to make him a bit more comfortable), Dwight is in good spirits. If you’re looking for a companion with a goofy side and a heart of gold, we think you’ll fall in love with Dwight faster than you can say “Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica.”

Jax is a sweet puggle who has been through a lot of late, but shows no negative signs. He has had to move homes twice in his senior years. Jax had TPLO surgery in 2024 but moves well and is feisty for a 10 year old dog! He loves to cuddle in bed and gets along great with other dogs. He would do best in a home with someone who wants to lavish him with love and have a snoozing buddy for a good nap. Apply for Jax at apply.neshamarescue.org
