Story
Hi! I'm Midge. I've been Barbie's best friend as far as I can remember. But now I'm looking for a new best friend! I mean why wasn't there a movie named after me? Is it my underbite? My wanting to give kisses? Or the way I hug you when I'm held? I mean I'm everything you're looking for in a best friend I'm about 12-14 weeks old and the smallest in the litter. My legs are long which is a good thing because I love jumping in foster mom's pond. I get along with all the dogs at my foster home. But I love people. Cuddling is awesome. Oh and I'm learning to potty outside! So let's create a movie together Our adoption process is usually quick but may take up to two weeks. When you find an animal you are interested in, we ask that you fill out an application as a first step so we can determine if your family is a good fit for the animal. If you are, then we will contact you to arrange a time for you and your family to meet the animal so you can decide if it is a good fit. If you currently have dogs, we require that the dogs be present at the meeting to make sure it's a good fit all around. Once compatibility is determined, we move on to the paperwork and finalize the adoption. If the meet is not a good fit, we will keep your application on file for 6 months and we will gladly consider your family for another dog.

Story
Meet Larry. Although I am the biggest of my siblings, I am also the most calm. I tend to let them get into mischief while I hang back and observe. I love playing with my siblings and cuddling on the couch. I will be on the smaller side of medium when I grow up. I am crate trained and working on potty training.

Hi, I'm Curly. I'm the runt of the litter but I make up for it in personality. I don't let my siblings boss me around. I love toys, food, and playing with my really big foster brothers.
