Story
Ginny  is super sweet and playful, especially with other dogs. She's a little skittish at first and takes a little while to warm up, but once she's comfortable with you, she is sweet, a champion snuggler, and an all-around great companion. Energy Level?  Medium House trained?  Yes Describe how they are on a leash. Does well on a leash. Likes to stop and smell all the smells. Describe how they are with other dogs?     Ginny plays nice with other dogs and has lived with other dogs; however, she would do well as your one and only.   She loves all the attention. Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they?  Ginny has been in home with a dog-savvy cat and did very well. Commands they know?  She comes when called.  What are their favorite things?  Playing with other dogs, chewing on toys and treats, and snuggling with her people. She also enjoys being outside and exploring our backyard. What do they need to work on?   Ginny  is still learning what's okay and not okay to chew. She'll need lots of toys that are safe for chewing and some patience and understanding while she figures it out.  How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone?  She has been alone for up to 8 hours and has been okay. She may howl briefly as we leave but then quiets down. She is generally happy in her crate and has a good view of all her foster fur siblings. Where do they sleep?  In a small crate in our bedroom. She sleeps well through the night and enjoys a morning snuggle in our bed when there's time. What is their ideal home?   Ginny 's perfect home includes at least one other similarly-sized dog because doggy playtime is her favorite thing. She'll need a family who can give her some time and space to get comfortable, as she can be pretty skittish initially. She'll also need patience as she learns what's okay to chew and what's not. Once she's comfortable with you and all settled in, she is an excellent companion and will reward you with epic snuggles and much love. Ginny should be in an adult only home.

Story
Beautiful Mina is looking for her happily ever after. She is a 3-year-old, 16-pound, Rat Terrier/ Chihuahua/Corgi mix? Mina was 5 days away from delivering her 8 puppies when she was left on our front porch. Thankfully she was able to give birth in comfort in a loving foster home. FOSTERING SAVES LIVES! Her puppies are now weaned and it is her turn to go to her forever home. Mina is a very sweet girl and is enjoying life at the sanctuary. She loves to sit on the lobby bench and people watch. She will put her paws on your lap, for permission to jump up. She is BOSSY with other dogs and is best suited to a one dog home She is ready to “GO” when she sees you get your keys! She does not like being left alone and would do best in a home where someone is with her most of the time. She is well behaved and a great travel size, she will be welcome wherever you go! Mina is doing well going outside to potty but may need some reinforcement with housetraining. She may need leash training. She needs a securely fenced yard as she is a climber. Mina is scheduled to be spayed but we are looking for her home now. She is current on vaccinations and microchipped. If you are ready to fill your home with happiness and joy, Mina has a tail that wags nonstop! Apply today!
