Story
We are looking for a loving, stable home for our terrier chihuahua, Oscar. Oscar was adopted from a local shelter when he was about 8 months old and given the birthdate 2/14/2019. Oscar needs someone who doesn’t have young children around, and someone who is home a lot and doesn’t travel much. He has always been anxious/skiddish of guests, but he is especially fearful of men. That doesn’t mean he won’t chill out around them; it just takes a minute longer than a female. He has progressively gotten more and more temperamental over last couple years. He has nipped at almost all of our guests, but especially children who don’t know to give dogs space. He does not like people to pet him if he has not come to you and sniffed you out. We love Oscar, but our lifestyle with aging children is always on the go. He is used to walking twice a day. He has serious leash aggression, and so we walk with a buzz/beep collar so he knows to chill out.

Story
Hi! My name is Dionysus, but my friends call me NeNe. I’m a super sweet, fun, medium sized dog weighing about 40lbs. I am already potty trained and know basic commands. Chewing is paws down my favorite hobby! I'm a toy connoisseur—squeaky chew toys are my favorite. My birthday is April 15th and my theme song is "Just a Girl" by No Doubt. My foster mom says I'm the best girl, and the only thing I'm missing is “spatial awareness"... whatever that means. I am a bit goofy sometimes, and I enjoy having plenty of room to spin and jump around. When meeting new people, I can be a little shy and nervous, so I’m looking for someone patient and understanding who will give me ample time to settle in and build my confidence. Once I feel safe and comfortable, I’m incredibly affectionate and snuggly. I’m ready to find a loving home where I can keep being my sweet, goofy self.

Story
Ranger is house trained and uses a pet door. We use to have 3 other dogs in the house and he got along with them. He does not bark a lot. We live on the corner. He sleeps in a bed or lays on a rug. He has not been much a lap dog, but that because of the elderly lady that has him. He is still energetic and lays out side when the weather permits.
