Story
Silly DAIZY is a fun and affectionate little mixed breed girl looking for a home. Our best guess on breed is a rat terrier/Jack Russell Terrier-type mix, maybe with a little Min Pin as well? Daizy is bouncy, playful and energetic. She needs an active lifestyle, she must go to a home with another dog who loves to run and play. Daizy would also be a great agility dog, she's athletic and smart. When playtime is over Daizy loves treats and cuddles. Daizy is about 2 years old and fully grown at just 22 pounds. If you'd like to meet Daizy, please fill out a dod adoption application at dreamhouserescue.org. We are happy to arrange a private meet with an approved adopter. You can meet Daizy at our weekly adoption event, Saturday noon-2 at PetSmart Eastgate. Our fully-vetted adoptable dogs go to prospective homes for a one-week trial period to make sure the dog and home are the right fit before an adoption is finalized. We only adopt dogs into homes where all current pets are spayed/neutered and current on vaccines and heartworm and flea and tick prevention. We do check veterinary references to make sure adopters are compliant with standard veterinary care. Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed and current on flea and tick and heartworm prevention.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 2, 2026, 4:53 pm

Story
🐾 Meet Tobias! 🐾Male | 2–3 Years | 13 lbs | Believed Corgi MixAdoption Fee: $250Tobias is a sweet, shy little guy who just needs a patient, understanding home to help him blossom. The first thing you’ll notice about him is… he is loud. 😂 He’s all bark and no bite — a goofy, vocal wild child who uses his voice to tell the world how he feels. Underneath all that noise, though, he’s incredibly sweet.Tobias is a bit unsure when meeting new people and may bark or growl at first, but he is very food-motivated and can be won over quickly with treats and kindness. Once he trusts you, his gentle, affectionate side shines. Outside his kennel he is a super sweet boy who just wants to be near his people.Tobias has done well settling into a home environment, but leash walking is still a work in progress. Walking in a straight line isn’t quite his thing yet, and he tends to zig-zag back and forth in front of you, which can make him a bit of a tripping hazard. Because of this, Tobias would love a home with a fenced yard where he can safely run, play, and burn off his energy while continuing to work on leash manners at his own pace.He enjoys the company of other dogs and does especially well with confident dogs around his size — he’s used to sharing his space with other pups. He did great meeting small dogs and was a little nervous around a large poodle, but still showed interest in making friends. One adorable thing he does? He loves following Wilma around like her tiny shadow. 💛Tobias isn’t a full-time couch potato — he’s more of a spirited little adventurer — but he does enjoy napping on couches and riding in cars. He would do best in a patient home willing to give him the time he needs to settle in, build confidence, and learn new skills. With consistency and love, he will be a wonderful, loyal companion.We are unsure how he is with kids or cats.✨ Medical Info:Tobias is vaccinated, flea & tick treated, tested negative for heartworm and Lyme, microchipped, and neutered.If you’re looking for a quirky, vocal, lovable little guy who just needs a chance — Tobias may be your perfect match! 🐶💛💕You can apply on our website www.highlandhumanesociety.org OR stop into the shelter 12- 5 pm Tuesday through Friday or 11 am to 3 pm on Saturday to meet who is available at that time. Please arrive no later than 30 minutes before we close to ensure we have time to do the adoption.Worried about whether she will be a good fit for your home? No worries, we have that covered too! You have up to 2 weeks after adoption to return her for a full refund on your adoption fee.
