Meet Mesquite 🌵 Mesquite is the confident leader of the litter and clearly knows it. As the alpha of the pack, he’s naturally curious, quick to learn, and always the first to figure things out.

He’s a great eater, thrives on routine, and absolutely loves being held. Despite his leadership role, Mesquite is affectionate and enjoys close contact, happily settling into your arms when it’s time to slow down. Mesquite would be a wonderful match for someone looking for a smart, confident puppy with a strong bond to people.

Pecan is social, expressive, and full of charm, always letting you know what he wants and how he’s feeling.

Meet Oak 🌿 Oak is a Shih Tzu–Terrier mix with a sweet, easygoing personality and a playful side that comes out when he’s with his brothers.

He’s affectionate, gentle, and happiest when he’s close to his people, soaking up attention without being over the top. He has a calm confidence about him and a loving nature that makes him an instant favorite. Oak would do well in a home that wants a playful companion who also appreciates cuddle time and a relaxed pace.
