Story
Diesel here, reporting for duty as your loyal shadow, fetch partner, slightly over-sized lap-dog, and the reason fore everyday laughs. Now Diesel’s name might give you visions of some high-octane, need-for-speed boy but please know that he is far from it. This Diesel has mini-zoomies, is toy-tossing, and is a people-loving pittie mix who’s always ready to spread his contagious happiness. We cannot guarantee it given he is a rescue but we believe Diesel is about 1.5 years old and he weighs 42 pounds, really a perfect medium, to-go size boy. Take a look then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/iVVpWAkEMlY My favorite thing about Diesel is the way he plays with toys! I don’t think there is a toy he doesn’t like. Whether its a stuffy or a bouncy ball, we is going to light up, bounce around, ask if you want to play fetch and then go throw the toy for himself. Right after that he will run to the toy basket, pick out another toy and start the cycle all over again. He is quiet and mindful of the space but it is still hard not to stop what you are doing just to watch him be so cute and happy. Simply, he is the perfect mix of playful energy and sweet affection. Diesel is young and active, and we believe he would be happiest in a home with a yard where he can zoom, toss toys in the air, and play fetch until his heart’s content. With an active life including regular adventures and play sessions, he could be an apartment boy but a home with a yard would be best. On leash, Diesel has great basic leash skills and shines when walking in an area without distraction, keeping an easy, steady pace is steady and showing great manners meeting new people. Diesels foster shared that when passing other dogs, he can get excited and occasionally bark. We did not see that during our afternoon with him but he was so receptive to gentle corrections and boundaries that we feel confident he will learn quickly once it is established what is expected. He’s social, outgoing, and adores people-he’ll happily climb into your lap for cuddles after a good play session. Diesel is dog-friendly and has a bouncy play style and can easily match a “rough and rowdy” player. He will thrive with a confident, playful female dog who can match his energy and handle his bouncy style. A more submissive dog could feel overwhelmed by his friendly and playful approach so we are looking for the right canine sibling fit but he could easily your one-and-only. Cats, however, Diesel would love to play chase with them so no feline friends in the home for him. Diesel is fostered in a loving home where he is learning and practicing all the best house manners. His foster shared that he is both crate and house-trained, and settles down nicely overnight, with only occasional moments of whining before relaxing for the evening. He’s full of enthusiasm, loves dinnertime, and will keep you smiling with his goofy, floppy ears and toy-flinging antics. Diesel is still young so he will need an adopter that is active and can give him on-going training, structure, playtime, and all the love he craves. In return, you are going to get an adoring, happy-go-lucky boy to welcome you home each day. Ready to welcome Diesel into your life?

Story
Meet Pixie People Lover! Pixie is a little under three years old and is believed to be a Pit Bull / Bull Terrier–type mix (rescue mystery, of course). What she is without question is adorable, affectionate, and absolutely full of life. She’s got the cutest floppy ears ever, one spotted, one solid, that fold and bounce depending on her mood, a tiny curl at the end of her tail with a little white tip, and that big ol’ pittie smile that makes it impossible not to grin back at her. Pixie is truly joy on legs. Pixie loves people. Like, really loves them. She’s the kind of dog who happily walks right up to say hi, asks for pets, leans in for cuddles, and wants to be near her humans as much as possible. Booty scratches? Yes please. Couch naps? Her favorite. Hugs? Absolutely. She’s social, affectionate, and would do great in a home that enjoys having visitors because Pixie thinks everyone is her friend. Watch her video to see her personality shine! https://youtu.be/15TuxlnM6Vk?si=AkN2gDONgRJWZzqk When it comes to playtime, Pixie is all in. Toys are her jam — stuffies, balls, tug toys, chew toys… she loves them all. She’ll play fetch with you, tug like a champ, or zoom around the yard entertaining herself when the mood strikes. She’s got a fun, bouncy energy but also knows how to settle and enjoy a good, long nap once she’s had her outlets. Pixie walks nicely on a gentle leader, which helps her stay grounded when exciting things pop up on walks. She can get a little amped at first (maybe sharing a few words with other pups on walks across the street), but she learns quickly and continues to improve as she works on checking in with her handler and staying focused. She enjoys being active and does best with regular exercise and a bit of structure, it helps her shine! She even went to a board and train where she made leaps and bounds going on pack walks and learning to stay neutral! Dog-wise, Pixie is selective. She can be playful with certain goofy, easygoing dogs and enjoys social time in the right settings, but she doesn’t want to share her home. Pixie would be happiest as your one-and-only pup, soaking up all the attention and not having to worry about managing other dogs full-time. And no kitties for this girl, way too tiny and fun to chase! Pixie has not officially been kid tested or been around kids much! So for now we’re guessing she’d be happiest with 10 and up! However with her people loving nature, we assume she’d be an amazing family dog! Pixie is looking for a rural home (no busy city life) with an experienced, confident handler who enjoys being involved, going on walks, and continuing her training in a positive, structured way. She’d love a yard to zoom in, a couch to nap on, and humans who want a loyal shadow with a big heart and a silly streak. Pixie thrives on companionship and connection and would be happiest in a home where she’s included in daily life and never feels like she’s missing out. The more time you’re home to spoil her, the better!! Pixie is not a “plug-and-play” dog — she’s a relationship dog. The kind who bonds deeply, loves hard, makes you laugh, and fills your home with warmth. For the right person, Pixie won’t just be a pet… she’ll be your best friend. 💗 Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Story
If you’ve been searching for a built-in best friend and the world’s finest couch companion, look no further, Tom is your guy! At around 5 years old, he’s reached the perfect age: old enough to know the house rules and young enough to still be goofy, playful, and full of love. With his handsome salt-and-pepper face and the softest fur you’ll ever bury your hands in, Tom is the kind of dog who just keeps getting more charming by the day. Tom is a pro snuggler and a certified cuddle bug. His favorite hobbies include leaning his whole body into you, carrying around his favorite toys (especially stuffies!), and making sure your couch never feels lonely. He loves his people deeply, if you want a dog who will choose to be right by your side, Tom is your man. Tom recently enjoyed a full day out with our Director of Behavior and his personality absolutely shined from start to finish. His very first interaction was with her 5-year-old boy and her 3-year-old autistic little girl and Tom handled it beautifully. He rode great in the car with the kids, taking everything in stride like a seasoned family dog. Loading into the car did require a bit of help, which turned into a comical moment everyone enjoyed. Tom may not be the most agile dog in the world, but what he lacks in athleticism, he more than makes up for in affection. Once settled, he was calm, content, and ready for adventure. Throughout the day, Tom met many new people — and every single interaction seemed like love at first sight. He immediately melted into arms and laps, rolling onto his back to ask for affection in his signature way. Several people even asked if his name was Teddy Bear, which would certainly fit given his thick coat, soft fur, and constant smile. Tom also visited the vet during his outing and was fantastic. He greeted the vet with affection, calmly accepted handling, and showed no interest in pulling toward other dogs walking into the clinic. He remained relaxed, polite, and people-focused the entire time. With the children, Tom was excited, joyful, and full of love. He showed particular enthusiasm with the 5-year-old, matching his energy and soaking up attention. With the 3-year-old, he was noticeably more mindful and gentler. Even when she made high-pitched cries, Tom remained completely unbothered. We couldn’t help but wonder if he was especially in tune with her behaviors and emotions. One of the most entertaining moments of the day came when Tom spotted his reflection in a mirror. Believing he had discovered a new dog friend, he had a brief but hilarious standoff - a bark, a stare, and then the realization that it was just himself. Once he figured it out, he promptly lost interest. We get it, Tom… mirrors can be scary lol Tom’s loving nature doesn’t stop there, he also attended doggy daycare and did fantastic. The staff couldn’t say enough good things about him and sent us this message afterward: “We love having Tom! He is the most loving, happy boy.” 🎥 Watch Tom’s personality shine in his video! https://youtu.be/YgYWbRTraE4?si=0wgads_zaaYXEZrM With dog friends, Tom is a respectful and thoughtful guy. He prefers calm or medium-energy buddies and takes his time getting to know new pups. Once he’s comfortable, he can absolutely be playful — he may even let out a few silly vocalizations to show he’s having fun! He could also happily thrive as the only prince of the household. Cats, however, are a firm “no thank you” from Tom, he has made his stance on felines very clear. 😅 Tom has lived in a home and is potty-trained. He’s got good manners but would love a family willing to help him continue his leash-walking skills so he can strut confidently on all his future adventures. Because he’s calm and people-oriented, Tom is a great candidate for apartment living if you are able to continue the leash work our behavior team has worked on! Tom was fostered with an elderly couple in their early 90’s. They adore him and were grateful for the experience of bringing their first large foster dog home! Tom is the whole package: loving, handsome, loyal, and ready for his new beginning. All he needs is someone to love him right back. Could that be you?
