Story
Spongey arrived to TJO with lots of matting, so much so that he almost resembled a certain sea creature from Bikini Bottom. Once freed from all the stuck together hair, Spongey settled in and started relaxing. He does best in a quiet environment that allows him to enjoy the benefits of frequent naps so he can continue to be playful. A slow integration to a new home, and a reliable routine will help him acclimate to his new digs.OTHER PETS: Spongey is interested in other dogs and has invited play with another older dog. His best fit would likely be with another older dog who is social with a similar play style (not too rambunctious). As with all our dogs, Spongey should meet any dogs he would be living with prior to adoption. [Case by Case (Must Meet First)]OWNER EXPERIENCE: Spongey can be particular about the kind of handling he likes and when exactly he wants it. He would do best with someone that has experience with dogs and positive reinforcement, and knows when to let him have his own space. [Some Experience]KIDS: Spongey is particular with handling but has not exhibited resource guarding while at the shelter. He flourished in a quiet space in the kennel and would do best in a quiet home. Any minor humans should meet Spongey prior to adoption. [Case by Case (Must Meet First)] ACTIVITY LEVEL: Spongey enjoys laying in bed, rolling around in his bed, and playing with various toys. As he feels better is becoming more active and curious about the environment. He is the quintessential old man who refuses to stop playing, even if he can't play as much as he used to when he was younger. He's affectionate when he is comfortable and enjoys being social. Mental enrichment (play, food puzzles, games) will help meet his nees. [Couch Potato] VETERINARY CARE: Spongey will need a good relationship with a vet with bi-annual check-ups to ensure that he has a good quality of life as he continues to age. He has recently had a dental in which the rest of his teeth were removed. [Above Average] LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Positive reinforcement training will help Spongey bond with his new owner as well as help him learn new skills and tricks to keep his mind active. Spongey barks when he experiences big changes and will likely bark initially, but once he feels more relaxed he barks less. A reliable potty schedule and lots of treats & happy voices will help him transition to a new home and limit potty accidents. [Minimal] GROOMING: Regular brushing will keep Spongey's coat clean and matt-free between grooms, he should be groomed every 6 -8 weeks. [Professional Grooming] December 24, 2025, 4:22 pm

Daisy is a 1yr old Shih Tzu/Bichon mix.

She currently lives with cats but will chase the ones that run from her and isn't yet trusted around small kittens. She is good with the adult cats that don't run from her.

Story
Hercules lives up to his name — strong, loyal, and fiercely devoted to the one he loves most. This handsome pup forms deep bonds with his person and thrives in a calm, one-on-one environment where he can truly shine.Due to his protective nature, Hercules needs a home with a single adult owner who understands dog behavior and can provide firm, consistent guidance. He becomes very attached to his person and may act defensively around strangers or other animals. But once he trusts you, you’ll have a loving, loyal companion who’s always by your side.Hercules would do best in a quiet home without a lot of visitors or chaos. He’s smart, trainable, and eager to please — he just needs the right environment to feel safe and thrive. No apartments or condos
