Story
Aloha! 🤙🏽 My name is Coconut and I am a 1 year old rescue puppy from Hawaii!🌈 I am an incredibly sweet, cuddly, goofy, and energetic puppy. I am crate trained, house trained, microchipped, up to date on all my shots, and do very well with other dogs! I love going on long walks, carrying sticks, going to the beach, cuddling, playing with toys, and driving in the car. My favorite snacks are coconut (of course🥥), pup cups, and peanut butter. I love toys, comfy beds, and good music. I don’t do very well with cats, so I would be best off in a house with lots of love, other puppies, and plenty of room to run around! I’d love to meet you and find my forever family!🏝️😍

Story
Cammie **Not Available to Be Seen Until Open House on Wednesday July 1st** Good with Kids & Dogs! Meet Cammie! 11 yrs./21 lb./Female/Chihuahua/Whippet Mix Name: Cammie Age: 11 years Weight: 21 lbs Breed: Chihuahua/Whippet Mix Status: Distinguished lady seeking cozy couch, soft blankets, and someone to adore 🐾 ​ About Me: Hi there, I'm Cammie. At 11 years young, I've learned a thing or two about what really matters in life. Fancy toys are nice, but have you ever tried a cozy blanket? Long meetings are overrated, but quality cuddle time? That's where it's at. I'm a sweet, gentle girl who enjoys the simple pleasures—relaxing with my people, soaking up affection, and finding the comfiest spot in the house to call my own. While some dogs are busy causing chaos, I've perfected the art of companionship. Don't let my age fool you, though. I still enjoy being part of the action and spending time with my favorite humans. I just prefer my adventures to include comfortable seating and reasonable snack breaks. If you're looking for a loyal friend who appreciates the quieter side of life, I may be exactly who you've been waiting for. ​ Best Qualities: • Sweet and affectionate • Expert cuddler and couch companion • Calm, easygoing personality • Loyal and devoted to her people • Fully house-trained in the art of being adorable ​ My Ideal Match: • Someone who appreciates senior dogs • A family looking for a loving companion • Humans who enjoy cozy nights and quiet moments • A home with plenty of blankets and love to share ​ Deal Breakers: • I refuse to apologize for taking up my fair share of couch space • Blankets are not optional—they're a lifestyle • If you're looking for a marathon training partner, I'm probably not your girl • I fully intend to convince you that one more cuddle is always a good idea 💜 ​ Fun Fact: I've reached the age where I know exactly what I want in life—and most of it involves blankets, snacks, and being close to my favorite people.

Story
Meet Mia Bella – Your Adventure-Ready Best Friend! 🐾 If you’re looking for a fun-loving, active companion to be your sidekick in life, Mia Bella might just be your girl! This adventurous pup is always up for a good time — whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch (her absolute favorite!), or exploring somewhere new. Mia Bella is house trained and crate trained, making her an easy addition to the right home. She does well with children and would thrive with older kiddos who can match her playful energy. She gets along with other dogs as long as food isn’t involved, but truthfully, she would probably love being your one-and-only so she can soak up all the attention. (No cats for this girl.) Mia Bella would be the perfect companion for an active person who wants a loyal partner for daily walks, outdoor adventures, and plenty of playtime. When the fun winds down, she’s happy to relax by your side — especially if it means being close to her favorite human. She’s not just looking for a home… she’s looking for her BFF.

🐾 Meet Amy – the Smart, Sweet Cattle Dog Pup! 🐾 Adoption Fee: $449 Adoption Application - Copy & Paste https://forms.gle/FmtRtYxQNnemdkdw9 Amy’s story could have ended very differently — this brave little girl was found dodging cars and trucks in the middle of a busy highway until a kind person stopped to save her.
