Story
BONDED PAIR Oreo & Miley need a home together.Woof-Facts Name: Miley and Oreo Breed: Yorkie and Shih Tzu Age: 6 and 7 Gender: Female and Male Health: goodForever home recommendations:  Miley and Oreo are sweet and playful dogs and love everyone and dog they meet. Miley is sweet and sassy and a little bossy and likes to be the center of attention. Oreo is more reserved but also sweet and goofy and lets his sister do the talking.  Miley and Oreo would do best in a home with people that are home most of the time. They love to be around their people and snuggle up with them. They both love to play with toys and other dogs but also just love curling up on the couch with you. They would do best in a home with a fenced in yard, they love to leisurely walk and explore.  Kids: unsure  Dogs: great with other dogs  Cats: unsure Crate trained: yes but don’t love it. Prefer gated room or exercise pen House trained: mostly, will go to the door to go out and go on pee pad. Occasional accidents Leash manners: good on leash  Personality: both friendly with people and dogs   Miley – playful, loves new people and dogs. Can be bossy as a yorkie often is Oreo – more reserved, sweet, also likes people and dogs. Let’s his sister be the center of attention. October 4, 2026, 1:47 am

We share these notes on our website so adopters can get an accurate, realtime picture before requesting a meet & greet. Please read everything carefully before contacting us. Doing so helps cut down on unnecessary emails and allows us to respond faster to adopters who truly need assistance. A reminder: behavior can shift dramatically between environments, and every dog needs a decompression period in a new home. For some, that’s a few days; for others, it may take several weeks or even months. If no update is currently listed, please check back soon. We’re actively working with the foster to gather the most recent information. Briefly describe the dog's overall personality and temperament:Pure puppy! Loves to play with toys, go on walks, play with other dogs, snuggle and be with people.What does a typical day currently look like for the dog? (Feeding, walks, play, naps, crate time, etc.)Potty at 530, nap until 7, walk for 30 minutes, eat, play with toys for an hour, sleep (crate) for 1-2 hours, play, sleep for an hour, play, play, play, walk, eat, play, nap, play, bed around 10(crate). Lots of potty breaks in between due to pea size bladder!Is the dog housebroken?*Still working on itOptional: any accidents, patterns, or housebreaking progress to note?He has the ability to use the yard  but I have noticed he prefers to be on a leash to go potty. Does the dog sleep through the night?YesBased on what you've observed, could this dog comfortably live in a home with shared walls (apartment, condo, or townhouse)?NoWhat makes this dog nervous or unhappy? (Triggers, fears, handling sensitivities, environments, noises, people, animals, or situations.)He hears everything! Sound asleep, a noise will wake him but he is now falling back to sleep faster so I think he is adjusting to normal noises.How does the dog behave around other dogs?Friendly and socialEnergy Rating (1 = very high; 5 = very low): *2Leash Walking Rating (1 = difficult; 5 = perfect): *3- getting better with pullingWhat walking equipment is currently being used? (Select all that apply)MartingaleSlip leadApproximately how long is the dog typically crated during the day?1–2 hoursWould this dog do well with a first-time dog owner?Depends on the person/home (explain below)Optional: tell us more about what kind of home/experience level would be the best fit:If the person is a first timer, they need training as much as he does. He is very loving so I can see a new adopter falling for his tricks of love instead of training him.What should potential adopters know about this dog? (Personality, ideal home, deal-breakers, anything that would help them decide if it's a good match)*I can see him fitting in with most scenarios. I don't think shared walls would be good unless the person is home all day or he is better trained. ##2838601##

Story
Sweet Jewel is looking for a longer term foster or adopter now that she's feeling better and on the road to recovery!After being hit by a car and left with a broken pelvis, she's had a rough few weeks but is finally feeling better and on the road to recovery with strict crate rest and some changes to her pain medication. She is able to use all 4 legs for short walks to relieve herself (although she seems to mostly know to use wee wee pads). She will need at least another month of crate rest as she continues to heal but everything is headed in the right direction. She's a little shy but very sweet little girl, we think some kind of shih tzu/doxie/terrier mix, about 3 years old and 14lbs. She was previously missing an eye- either an older injury or birth defect but sees out of the remaining one. Please submit an application if you have a quiet home environment for our sweet girl to continue her recovery Primary Color: Tri Color Age: 3yrs 2mths 1wks
