Story
Sir Ukulele is a 6-year-old Rat Terrier with a stunning blue coat, long deer-like legs, and undeniable main-character energy. Currently 23 pounds (aiming for 15), he’s on a relatable wellness journey fueled by love… and snacks. The good stuff: • Extremely friendly — strangers are just future friends • Gives full-body, world-class hugs • Great with other dogs; would love a dog sibling • Cats and respectful kids are fine • Leash walks are great • Potty training in progress • Car rides fine (unless it’s to the vet) The honest stuff: • Doesn’t love being alone • Nail trims = absolutely not Sir Ukulele would thrive with someone who’s home often, has a calm, confident leadership style, and a sense of humor.

Story
Ike is an adorable 16-pound puppy with a playful spirit and a personality that’s sure to keep you smiling. Our best guess is he is a Jack Russell Terrier mix, but his DNA is really a mystery. Born on 1/8/26, this sweet boy is full of all the classic puppy charm: energy, curiosity, affection, and just the right amount of chaos to keep life interesting. He’s the kind of pup who will happily bring joy, laughter, and a little bit of mischief-free mayhem to his forever home. As a young puppy, Ike will need a family ready to help him learn the ropes. He’s still at the age where house training, crate training, and basic obedience will all be important parts of his routine. Like all puppies, he’ll thrive with structure, patience, and positive guidance as he grows into a wonderful lifelong companion. Ike is very friendly, loves meeting people, and is ready to find a family to call his own. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, affectionate puppy to add to your home, Ike may be the one you’ve been waiting for.
