Story
Betty is 1 year and 5 month old, and she’s full grown at 15 pounds. She’s a funny, playful, sassy, and loving little dog who will keep you smiling. Betty loves to play fetch and enjoys spending time with other dogs — she’s been going to doggy daycare every week since she was 3 months old, so she’s very well socialized. She is mostly potty trained: she knows to go outside, but she still needs some consistency and patience to fully learn to hold it indoors. Betty is kennel trained — she sleeps in her kennel at night and stays in it while I’m not home. She does very well in her kennel, rarely whines, and never has accidents in it. Betty would do best in a home with someone who has the patience to finish her potty training and the time to give her the love and attention she deserves. A fenced yard would be wonderful (though not required), and she needs a family who won’t leave her alone for more than 8–9 hours a day.

Story
Rowdy (neutered male)12 years (dob Oct. 8th) - Shitzu/Poodle (14lbs)Surrendered because owners moved into nursing home Described as affectionate - playful Lived inside - Moderate energy Cons: Barks excessively - Chews - Separation anxiety Does have bite history when grabbing him Pros: Housebroken - Walks on leash - Gentle - Smart - Playful - Rides in car Knows no - come here Enjoys squeekies Fair w/ women, men, other dogs and cats No children due to nipping Adoption Fee: $0 (sponsored adoption)From staff:His mom and dad had to go into a nursing home. They`re very worried about him and with his age we don`t think he`ll do well at all. Definitely no kids as he is very nippy with being held or fast movements. He will need a calm home that`s willing to just let him live out the rest of his old man life. He has had dental cleanings, grooming to shave him so his skin doesn`t get irritated and shots for being old. Vet is sending over records so we can be more specific when meeting with potential adopters.
