Story
Meet Lake! Lake is a 5 year old, 12 pound, Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mix. Lake came to TNT from a hoarding situation, so he is still decompressing and getting accustomed to life in a home as a family dog! He does well with other dogs, but he's still nervous about new people. His foster family is helping him along the way, including starting to work on training. Slow and steady wins the race! He is looking for a forever home with a family that will be patient as he learns how to feel comfortable with them. He would love to have a confident resident dog who can show him the ropes! He's already started to show us that he wants love - he approaches his foster family for pets and paws gently for more. We are sure that with more guidance and love, he will understand that his life has really just begun! Let us know if your home could be a good fit for Lake! Lake's adoption fee is $400

Story
Brandy is a 1-year-old rat terrier mix who is house-trained, great with other dogs, and friendly with people. She’s energetic and playful, but may not be ideal for homes with small children due to her tendency to nip during play. Brandy is very vocal, especially when she's excited about dinner or playtime -- she sounds like a little "demon" but in the best way! At night, she sleeps in our bed, though she’ll happily move to a dog bed if she’s had enough. In the mornings, she’ll greet you with kisses or a wagging tail to help wake you up, making sure your day is off to a great start. Brandy loves walks, though she can be a bit unruly for the first few minutes. Once she settles, she walks well but tends to be reactive to other dogs, so a harness is recommended to prevent injury to her neck. Brandy is healthy, though she does have bilateral luxating patella, a condition she was likely born with. The vet suggests keeping her under 16 lbs. to manage it. Her ideal home would be active, possibly with another dog her size who enjoys playing. Brandy is smart and would benefit from formal training.

Meet Kiko and Kody! These adorable 8-year-old Rat Terrier brothers came to us after being surrendered to local animal control. They are sweet little guys who love to sit on your lap or shoulders. Kiko is a bit over 10lbs and Kody is a bit under 10lbs. They've done well around the other dogs so far here as well. They also appear housetrained. They're wonderful boys and have quickly become staff and volunteer favorites! Kiko and Kody are a bonded pair and looking for a home together.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, I’m Kendall And yes… I have officially come out of my shell. Surprise! It turns out I’m fast, playful, petite, and powered by pure puppy energy. They say I'm a Feist/Lab mix but my foster says I'm 100% cute! I'm almost 5 months old and still waiting for a forever family! I’m basically made for an active family — especially one with a yard where I can zoom like a tiny rocket. I love other dogs (they’re my people), and I’m OBSESSED with playing with my sister Kylie. She’s my partner in crime, my bestie, my wrestling buddy. We love to cuddle in our jammies after a play sesh! At night? I’m an angel. I sleep through the night in my crate with zero accidents (please clap). During the day… okay, I’m still learning. Sometimes I miss the memo, but I’m getting better every single day and I’m figuring out how to tell you when I need to go outside. Progress, people! I’m sweet, lively, and just the right amount of silly. My fosters say I'm calm for a pup my age! Hey, I'm mature! I was born 7/11/25, which makes me young, cute, and totally ready to steal your heart (and maybe your socks). Don’t wait — apply to adopt me at projecthopearf.org I promise to bring joy, zoomies, and lots of love.  born 7/11/25   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 21, 2025, 3:18 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, I’m Kylie And yes, it’s true — I may be one of the sweetest, calmest puppies you’ll ever meet. I don’t mean to brag… okay, maybe I do a little. I’m about 5 months old, a Lab/Feist mix (probably… mystery makes me interesting), and I’m a big fan of the finer things in life: mind-stimulating games, cozy cuddles, and pajamas. After I play with my sister Kendall, my foster dresses us up in the cutest outfits and we snuggle for HOURS. It’s basically a puppy spa day, every day. I’m working hard on potty training and learning new commands, and I take my studies very seriously (treats help). I don’t bite, I’m not mischievous, and I’m really just a gentle little love bug who wants to be near her people. Kendall and I are honestly the full package — sweet, affectionate, well-mannered, and ridiculously cuddly. I truly don’t understand how no one has fallen in love with me yet… but I’m hopeful you might be the one. I can’t wait to meet my forever family and start our happily-ever-after.
