Story
Gladys is a little lady who is ready to experience all the fine things in life. Gladys would love a lowkey house where she can lounge and be showered with love and affection. She is a low energy girl and would be happy to go on a few walks a day, then hangout in the house with you. She does not require a whole lot, just a loving home to call her own. If you are interested in a loyal lap dog, fill out an application on our website to meet Gladys!

Story
Elmo is the world's sweetest and most loyal, loving creature. He currently lives with another dog, Chloe, who is also listed here. I would like to find them a home together, ideally. Elmo was adopted from a rescue in 2022. DNA tests reveal he is primarily shihzu with poodle and chihuahua mixed in. He has amazing recall and loves to snuggle underneath all of the blankets. In 2025, my ex and I separated, and we have been rotating the dogs between our homes for the last year. It's not going well. I want to find them a place to live in a single home, and not split between two. I'm willing to adopt the dogs separately, but an ideal situation would be that someone can take them both, since they have lived together for the last four years, and got along beautifully. Elmo (the gray one) is pictured here with Chloe. Happy to share additional information as requested.

Story
Meet Odie Odie is a big, lovable guy who believes the quickest way to his heart is through his stomach. He likes the ladies, he likes the guys… honestly, he likes pretty much everyone — and if you happen to have snacks, you’re already his favorite person. Odie is simply a really good boy. He’s house trained, crate trained, great with kids, and an amazing sidekick who loves being with his people. He’s affectionate, friendly, and has plenty of love to give. Odie is a Shih Tzu mix and a solid guy at around 45 pounds. He’s carrying a few extra pounds at the moment, but some portion-controlled meals and regular walks should help him get back to his fighting weight. He can also be a bit of a runner, so his future family will need to be mindful about keeping him secure. If you’re looking for a lovable, food-motivated, kid-friendly sidekick who already knows how to be a good boy, Odie might just be your guy. ##2853443##
