Story
Angel is a gentle senior dog. She is hard of hearing and is occasionally incontinent of urine now at night. She mostly sleeps but does enjoy sunbathing in the back yard since it’s warmer. She gets along with other dogs and is passive, although she was totally alpha in her prime. She minds (if she can hear the command.) She is a sweet-tempered dog and enjoys being scratched and petted. She was a stray and the vet estimated her to be 1 year of age in 2011 when I rescued her. In her youth she was my tree climber; she gave those squirrels a run for their money! I can’t take her where I’m relocating and she deserves to live her remaining time in comfort with plenty of love.

BREED-Rat Terrier Mix SEX-Male; SIZE-Small. WEIGHT-15 lbs.; AGE-Approximately 2 Years; SPAY/NEUTER-Yes; HOUSETRAINED-Currently Uses Doggie Door; GOOD WITH KIDS-Yes; GOOD WITH DOGS-Yes; GOOD WITH CATS-Unknown; HISTORY-Rescued From A Local Shelter; ADOPTION FEE-$300; Hi there, I'm Zaden! I'm a little shy, but once I warm up, I'm as sweet as can be. You see, I ended up in this shelter after a hilarious mix-up. I was happily chasing my tail in the park, when a squirrel caught my eye. I forgot about my tail and chased the squirrel instead. Somehow, I lost my human in the process and ended up here. I'm still a playful pup at heart, always ready for a game of fetch or a belly rub. If you're looking for a friendly, fun-loving companion who might occasionally forget you in favor of a squirrel, I'm your guy!April 15, 2025, 8:04 am

I'm Portia, a spirited lass from Mexico. Once, I was just an ordinary pup, until a strange meteorite crashed near me, bestowing me superpowers. I could leap high, run fast, even understand human language! I became 'La Perra Poderosa' - the Powerful Pup, protecting my neighborhood from mischievous cats and pesky squirrels. But, my superpowers attracted attention. A kind-hearted human discovered me and brought me here, to this shelter. Now, I await a new adventure with a loving family. I promise to protect, love, and play with you. Will you be my superhero?April 13, 2025, 2:45 pm

Rat Terrier

Story
Niko is a true lap dog with a lively interest in being outdoors. He was spotted multiple times running the streets before his rescue.  Ideally, he should have daily walks and a very secure backyard since he still seems to hear the call of the wild.  Niko also enjoys looking out the window and going to dog parks, is cooperative getting his harness on, can be left loose when you're out, is good on car rides, and is not a picky eater. Niko is generally low-maintenance with some high-maintenance moments.  He seems okay around respectful children (about 6+), and dogs of all sizes (favors larger dogs), he is playful, and has guard dog tendencies of barking at people/noises near your windows and doors.  He lunges towards squirrels and rabbits, but with bicyclists he ignores some and barks at others.  He alternates from walking with a confident, princely gait, to intensely following a trail nose down, to stopping and sprinkling multiple objects, to galloping towards a desirable tree. As energetic as Niko sometimes can be, he is a deep sleeper who loves to snooze on a dog bed with comfy blankets or get under the covers on a people bed.   Niko is chock full of personality, but the sort that is especially endearing.  He is a charmer with an independent streak.  But most of all he is a loving little guy who needs a loving home. ##2280678##
