Story

Meet Papi, a sweet little gentleman with a big heart and excellent manners at 11 years young and 20 lbs, this Rat Terrier mix is the definition of easy living. Papi loves people just the right amount—happy to hang out, happy to snooze nearby, and especially happy to cuddle when it’s bedtime. He’s a champion sleeper who will gladly match your sleep-in schedule. Papi is generally a laid-back guy, but don’t let that fool you—walks and car rides are his JAM. He gets adorably excited when it’s time to head out, then settles into a nice, relaxed stroll (even easier when he’s walking solo). At home, he’s a total potty-training rockstar, uses the doggie door like a pro, and allows all handling with zero fuss. He’s lived peacefully with other dogs and mostly ignores them on walks, though cats are a no-thank-you for Papi. Toys are still a mystery to him, but he’s curious about crinkly ones and might discover his playful side with a little encouragement. Papi would thrive in a calm, loving home where he can enjoy daily walks, cozy cuddles, and all the love he so clearly deserves. Looking for a mellow best friend with a sweet soul and a cute little strut? Papi’s ready to meet you.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Gatsby and others came out of a hoarding home with too many dogs living in the yard. They were all very afraid of humans who let them down. He's a tiny feisty 9lbs, and loves water! In his foster home he gets along with other dogs big and small as well as cats! His furever home has to have a secure yard (he doesn't even know what a leash is lol), another dog, and adult humans with patience. It might involve a few meet and greets first so patience begins there.if you are interested in meeting any of our dogs, please answer some questions on our website at www.lovefordogs.org/adopt-foster so a volunteer can reach out.

Jepp

Rat Terrier Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 1 yr 10 mos

Tempe, AZ

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,

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.

Story

Meet Avery — your next adventure buddy in a petite package Avery is a sweet little girl we believe is a Rat Terrier mix with the most gentle, loving soul. While she may look bigger in photos, Avery is actually quite petite — a perfect size for cuddles and adventures! Avery is a fantastic walking and hiking companion and truly enjoys being out and about with her person. She rides great in the car once she’s inside, though she can be a little unsure about hopping in on her own at first — just another reminder of her sensitive, gentle nature. She’s a bit shy when you first meet her, but it doesn’t take long for Avery to warm up. Once she does, she loves getting pets and soaking up affection. She takes treats gently, walks well on a leash, and has shown no reactivity toward other dogs so far. She’s simply a very sweet, easygoing girl who wants to feel safe and loved. Right now, Avery is living in a kennel, and we know she would truly thrive in a foster or forever home where she can relax, build confidence, and show off her full personality. She’s ready for her next chapter — all she needs is someone willing to give her that chance. &#226&#156&#168 Interested in helping Avery?

As her foster mom so eloquently put it, this precious pup just wants to be loved. At five years old, she has lots of love left to give, so come be Hilda’s hero and adopt her today!

Story

When we said we would give him a soft spot to land, 10-year-old Mason took that quite literally. This scruffy little furniture connoisseur knows all the best soft spots! Whether it’s his favorite armchair, a plush sofa, the passenger seat, or an awesome ottoman, little 14lb Mason is so content to sit and snug – as long as it’s with you! And don’t worry: he takes the “fur” out of “furniture” and is careful not to leave too much of it behind. Quiet, adorable, and so loving, Mason promises you a cozy life of cuddles and excellent taste. Take this well-mannered man shopping at HomeGoods or At Home! Or – best of all – take him home today.
