Story
Meet Bentley Bentley is an 8-year-old pup with a sweet, loyal personality once he warms up to you. He’s house-trained, protective of his home, and happiest in a calm, child-free environment—perfect for a single owner, couple, or retiree who can give him patience and attention. He’s low-maintenance, content being home alone during the day, and doesn’t need much exercise. Bentley can be nervous around men and other dogs but becomes incredibly affectionate once he feels safe. He’ll need a little extra leash training, as he tends to bark on walks. Grooming is needed about 3–4 times a year—he does best with a mobile groomer he’s comfortable with. It breaks our hearts to rehome him, but we know he’ll thrive in the right home. If you’re looking for a loyal, easygoing companion, Bentley might be the one.

Story
(01/04/26) FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED Meet Haunter! Haunter is a 4-year-old, 15 lb Shih Tzu/Pekingese mix with the cutest little underbite and a soft, fluffy coat. He’ll need a home committed to regular grooming to keep him comfortable and looking his best. Haunter came to us from a difficult past where he missed out on early socialization, and because of that, the outside world can feel overwhelming for him. He is very fearful in unfamiliar environments, especially with loud noises and busy surroundings, and he will need continued support learning the basics—including leash walking—at his own pace. For this reason, Haunter will do best in a standalone home with a fully fenced yard. Apartments or high-traffic living situations would not be a good fit for him. At heart, Haunter is a gentle, loving boy who just wants to feel safe. He loves being close to his person, enjoys being held, and prefers a calm, predictable lifestyle. He has not shown to be a high-energy or playful dog and would thrive in a quiet home where he can move at his own pace while slowly building confidence with the world. Haunter would do well as an only dog with an adopter committed to patient, positive socialization, or in a home with a laid-back, calm dog companion who can peacefully coexist and help him feel more secure. He will need a patient, understanding adopter—ideally someone experienced with shy or fearful dogs—who can help him learn that the world doesn’t have to be scary. This sweet boy has so much love to give and is looking for a soft place to land with someone who will give him the time, structure, and compassion he deserves. Haunter is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, and neutered. His adoption fee is $500.

Story
FOREVER HOME NEEDED Meet Anise! Anise is a 1-year-old, 11 lb Shih Tzu mix who came to us as a stray from an overcrowded shelter. This little guy is super sweet, goofy, and full of charm! Anise loves being held, carried, and enjoys sticking close to his people. He’s treat-motivated, eager to please, and always up for a walk or an adventure by your side. Whether it’s daily strolls, outings, or just tagging along with his humans, Anise is happiest when he’s included. He does great with other dogs and would love a home with another friendly pup as a full-time playmate. He could also thrive as an only dog as long as he continues to get regular socialization and doggy playdates. Anise will need adopters who are committed to keeping up with his grooming needs. He has not been tested with cats. If you’re looking for a small, affectionate companion who’s equal parts cuddly and adventurous, Anise could be your perfect match! Anise is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, and will be neutered prior to adoption. His adoption fee is $500.

Story
Beacon is a six year old Shih Tzu. He’s a sweet, calm little man who is looking for a loving home. He has done really well since coming into foster care and has relaxed and is enjoying life. He is great about going potty outside on leash or roaming free in fenced yard. He is pretty quick about doing his business and isn’t bothered by a little rain. At night, he enjoys white noise (if there’s a lot of traffic sounds) but he sleeps really well all night in his space in the bathroom. During the day he comes out and hangs out with his foster mom and takes naps on the couch. He enjoys belly rubs and sitting by the fireplace. He has been very comfortable around our indoor cats. He shows no aggression towards them or any other animals he’s encountered. He has found some cat toys he likes and picks them up and carries them around. He’s slowly learning to play. He likes car rides and sits in his doggy car seat like a gentleman. He has been so good with baths and his eye meds. A calm reassuring voice is all he needs to understand that you are helping him. He is fairly comfortable around adults and teens and has shown no aggression at all. He’s getting more confident every day. He is a wonderful companion who enjoys sitting on the couch watching tv or walking around the block sniffing bushes and wagging his tail. Beacon is a good boy!

Story
Pudding is a tiny Shih Tzu puppy with a huge personality. She’s got spunk, confidence, and just enough sass to keep things interesting. She’s pretty independent and likes to explore on her own, but the second you sit down, she’s more than happy to curl up next to you for a cuddle. She’s super curious about everything going on around her and is always ready to investigate a new sound, toy, or corner of the house. She loves to play and would do great with someone who wants a little sidekick with personality. Pudding is sweet, kind, and just wants to be your tiny best friend. Pudding sleeps in an indoor play pen and is starting to sleep through the night, but with very early wake ups! She also loves napping by your side throughout the day. Pudding is still working on potty training. She’s a young puppy but she catches on quickly. Taking her out on a regular schedule, using positive reinforcement when she goes outside, and watching for her signals at the door will help build the habit. She is good with other dogs and cats and cars, but doesn’t have experience with kids yet. She is food motivated, Good with cats, She might bark a little at with, but will bark a little bit at cats, depending on the moment Pudding is one of those little dogs that feels like she was meant to be someone’s best friend. She’s independent enough to explore and entertain herself, but she absolutely lights up when she gets attention. She’s playful, sweet, and so full of personality. You can already see what a wonderful companion she’s going to grow into with a little guidance and consistency. -----

A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters:
Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained. Most come from tough or uncertain beginnings and may have never lived in a home or known basic routines. That means:

✧ They are not potty trained on arrival. Most dogs regress in potty training when moving to a new environment.

✧ They may lack basic manners (like leash walking or appropriate chewing).

✧ They’re learning, growing, and doing their best—but they will need patience, structure, and compassion to succeed.

The majority of these pups have lived in the confinement of a cage or kennel run for most - if not all - of their lives. Because of this, we strongly discourage the use of crates for anything other than vehicle transport. They deserve the chance to decompress and learn what true freedom and comfort feel like.

Our amazing foster homes work hard to start these dogs on the right path, but they are rescues, not finished products. These dogs need time, consistency, and a loving home willing to meet them where they are.

Also, breed designations are our best guesses based on appearance and behavior. We can't guarantee breed, size, adult weight, or coat type.
