Story
Why you will love him... The Athlete: Ciabatta has plenty of energy and loves to run. Whether it’s a long walk, a jog, or just zooming around a big backyard, he is always up for an adventure. The Snuggle Bug: Once his energy is out, he’s a total softie. He is a world-class cuddler who loves to lean in for pets and snooze right next to his favorite humans on the couch. Great with Kids: Ciabatta is a sweetheart with children. He is patient, gentle, and thrives on the love and attention of a family. Ciabatta is a 10 year old Rat Terrier Mix looking for a new home due to no fault of his own. He had a run in with a wire fence that got wrapped around his nose  earlier in life and has left a small scar. He is sweet as they come. He just wants to sit in your LAP and cuddle.

Story
This adorable little girl is just over a year old and weighs about 12.5 pounds. She’s fully vetted, heartworm negative, microchipped, and making great progress with her potty training. Her adoption fee is only $25! She came from a hoarding situation where dogs were kept in crates in a small apartment, so crates aren’t her favorite place to be. But, it sometimes can be her safety place. Understandably, she’s still a bit nervous and learning to trust. Sometimes she’s too scared to be caught, but with patience, gentleness, and time, she’ll come around and show her true loving nature. Because of her background, she’s not a good fit for apartment living—she’ll need a secure backyard where she can safely explore and feel comfortable. She does best with dogs her size or larger, and would thrive in a calm, understanding home that’s willing to let her open up at her own pace. She’s not an “instant dog”—she’ll need time to trust and adjust—but once she feels safe, she’ll reward you with a lifetime of love and loyalty. Could you be the one to give this sweet girl the safe, loving home she deserves? Complete your application today at https://chloespetrescue.org/application

Story

Meet Peppa! Your future lap dog and resident joy generator. 😃 Peppa is the definition of a love bug. Her absolute favorite place in the world? Your lap. If you sit down, she considers that a personal invitation for cuddles. And if you so much as touch the leash, get ready — this girl literally jumps for joy. It’s impossible not to smile watching her excitement for life. Peppa still has that irresistible puppy energy, complete with the most adorable zoomies you’ve ever seen. She brings a playful spark to every day, balanced beautifully with her deep desire to be close to her people. She’s the perfect mix of fun and snuggly. She does wonderfully in her crate and happily goes “home” when asked. She’s almost fully potty trained and just needs a little continued consistency as she finishes mastering the routine. Since she’s still completing her vaccines, she hasn’t done much public socializing yet. From what we’ve seen, she gets very excited to see new people — she’s eager, friendly, and ready to make friends everywhere she goes. With a little guidance and continued exposure, she’s going to blossom beautifully. Peppa rides well in the car. She gets excited when she sees other dogs and has shown no aggression — just happy enthusiasm. She co-exists well with cats and may attempt a playful chase now and then. And when it comes to kids? She absolutely adored the teenage neighbor she met. Peppa is looking for a home that will embrace her joyful spirit, continue her puppy training, and give her all the lap time her heart desires. If you’re ready for a best friend who celebrates every walk, every cuddle, and every moment with you then Peppa is your girl!
