Story
Available to foster or adopt!Breed: Shih Tzu / Pomeranian X DOB: 12/2016 Gender: male Altered: yes Coat: medium Size: small Color(s): tawn/blond Description: ***Needs a Foster Home*** This dog is in need of a foster home as well as a permanent home. If you are interested in fostering please fill out an online foster application. Hi, I'm Bentley, a distinguished senior gentleman with a heart of gold, who is seeking a forever family to call my own. I'm a unique mix of Shih Tzu and Pomeranian, with a tan/blond coat that shines like the sun. As a senior pup, I've learned a lot about life and love, and I'm hoping to find my perfect match with a family who understands my needs. You see, I'm what you might call a 'lone wolf.' I prefer to be the only dog in the spotlight, receiving all the love and attention. It's not that I don't have enough love to go around; I just like to keep my circle small and intimate. I'm also a bit particular about my resources—I like to keep my things close, and I can be a bit territorial. But don't let that deter you from seeing the sweetness beneath. I'm a feisty and opinionated guy, always up for an adventure or a good treat. I enjoy my walks and exploring new scents, and I'm house trained, so I know my manners. I'm also very affectionate and love spending time with my people; I just ask that they be female adults who understand my unique personality. In the right home, with the right family, I will shine and be the loyal companion you've always dreamed of. So, if you're looking for a dog with character, wisdom, and a whole lot of love to give, I may be the guy you've been waiting for. Please fill out an online application to meet me.October 6, 2026, 9:50 pm

Story
🖤 Meet Onyx 🖤 At just 2 years old, Onyx has already overcome more than any dog should have to. Onyx came to our rescue from another rescue that was quietly shutting down. The dogs we received were living in heartbreaking conditions—covered in urine and feces, with severely overgrown nails and little to no proper care. Despite everything she endured, Onyx’s spirit remains bright, loving, and full of joy. When Onyx was a puppy, she suffered an injury that was never treated. As a result, one of her legs never developed properly, and the muscles became completely atrophied. The leg is noticeably smaller than her others, but the good news is that she still has some use of it, gets around remarkably well, and it does not cause her pain. After consulting with veterinarians, it was decided that amputation was not necessary. In fact, Onyx gets around so well that she currently walks 3–4 city blocks before hopping into a stroller for a short rest, then happily gets back out and walks another 2–3 blocks. Don’t let her special needs fool you—Onyx loves to play! She is dog-friendly, enjoys romping around with her canine friends, and keeps up surprisingly well despite her bad leg. She also has the cutest little underbite that makes her impossible not to fall in love with. Onyx is spayed, vaccinated, and ready to find the forever family she has always deserved. All she wants is a safe home, a soft bed, and people who will love her for the incredible dog she is. Could you be the happy ending to Onyx’s story? 🐾
