Story
Meet Bridget 💕 Bridget is a 9-year-old Shih Tzu who has already lived through more than any little dog ever should. She was found in a rundown home, extremely matted and neglected, until a kind-hearted woman stepped in and convinced her owner to surrender her so she could finally get the help she needed. Bridget was groomed, vetted, and began learning what love and comfort feel like. Just four short months later, that same wonderful woman unexpectedly passed away — and Bridget once again found herself needing rescue. Bridget does have some hearing and vision impairment, but she is otherwise healthy and fully vetted. She’s currently settling in, learning her new surroundings, and doing what she does best: enjoying long, peaceful naps on soft beds. She isn’t looking for chaos or constant activity — just a safe, permanent place to rest, be loved, and feel secure. Small dogs like Bridget can easily live to be 15 years old, which means she still has many years of companionship, quiet moments, and gentle love to give. If you have a calm home, a cozy bed, and a heart open to giving a senior dog the happy ending she deserves, Bridget may be your perfect match. ✨ Can you be Bridget’s final landing spot? ✨

Story
Hi, I'm Barney! Ever wondered how a charming senior like me ended up in foster? Well, I once decided to follow my nose on an epic adventure. Turns out, I'm not as spry as I used to be, and I lost my way back! But here I am, heart murmur and all, still the king of cuddles and goofy grins. I'm looking for a forever home where I can share my boundless love and maybe chase a squirrel or two (or just dream about it from a comfy couch). Adopt me for a lifetime of laughs and loyalty! Barney is a senior Shih Tzu. He is very sweet and potty trained and does great with dogs and cats and kids of all ages. This sweet boy is struggling with some skin issues that he came in with and was diagnosed with a grade 2 heart murmur when he was neutered on intake. If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting this baby, please fill out an application. They currently are fixed, up to date on shots, wormings, preventatives and are microchipped (with lifetime registration). Adoption fee is $215 with approved application, applications can be filled out at this link. https://www.petstablished.com/adoption_form/10167/generic . ##2620976##

Story
BONDED PAIR!!! These girls will need to find a forever home together. Hi there my name is Mary Kate, they say I'm 2-3 years old but I act very much as a puppy. I love kids, playing outside, packing my toys around, getting in the bath, dancing for treats and most of all lovings. I am a huge snuggle bug and just want a forever home for me and my sister, I am more withdrawn that my sister Ashley but that's because I learned at a younger age you can't always trust people. On the up side, I do pretty good on a leash, I am crate trained and puppy pad trained, I love also go outside to potty. If you can find it in your heart to welcome me and my sister in your home that would be amazing. Hello there, I'm Ashley ! I'm estimated to be 2-3 years old, crate trained, puppy pad trained and trained to go outside and potty as well. I dance for treats, toys, and even love getting snuggles! Kids seem to love me and my sister, and we love them as well! What more could you ask for? Im outgoing, bubbly, quiet, tend to my sister, and she tends to me..all we ask is to keep us together and love us forever. If you're interested in giving me and my sister Mary Kate forever homes then hit that application button, what are you waiting for?
