Story
Meet Snoopy! 🐾 Snoopy is an adorable 2-year-old Rat Terrier mix weighing 18 pounds. This sweet boy was heartbreakingly dumped in front of a Good Samaritan who brought him to us for care and safety. Despite his rough start, Snoopy is incredibly loving and affectionate. He’s snuggly, does well with other dogs, and truly lives for human attention. Snoopy is ready for a forever home where he’ll never be left behind again—just loved, cherished, and spoiled the way he deserves.

Story
Meet Waylon, a 10-year-old wire-haired Jack Russell Terrier who definitely hasn't read the rule book on aging! Despite his age, Waylon is packed with the energy and playful spirit of a much younger dog, ready to bring joy and excitement to his forever home. 🐾 About Waylon: Age: 10 years old (but acts like a 2-year-old!) Breed: Wire-Haired Jack Russell Terrier Energy Level: High—still has that puppy zip and loves adventure. Personality: Feisty, curious, affectionate when he wants to be, and always up for fun. ❤️ Waylon's Favorites: Belly Scratches: He melts for a good belly rub session. Toys, Toys, Toys: Playtime is his favorite time of the day. The Great Outdoors: He adores being outside, especially near water. Sniffari Adventures: Exploring and sniffing out every new scent in his environment is pure bliss for him. 🏡 Ideal Home & Training Needs: Waylon is a work in progress and needs a patient and understanding family committed to helping him thrive. House Manners: Waylon is not currently housetrained and struggles with traditional house manners. He needs a dedicated owner willing to work on consistent training routines and possibly manage an indoor space where accidents are okay while he learns. Companions: He is dog-selective and prefers to be the star of the show. No cats or small animals, please. He might do best as the only dog or in a home with another calm, well-matched canine companion after a careful introduction. Environment: A secure yard where he can safely explore, sniff, and enjoy the water would be a huge plus. ✨ Why Adopt Waylon? If you’re looking for an active, engaging companion who will keep you on your toes and fill your life with laughter, Waylon is your guy. He promises endless entertainment during playtime and deep affection during cuddle time. He’s looking for a committed home that sees past his current training needs and recognizes the vibrant, loving dog underneath. Ready to give this energetic senior the second chance he deserves?
