Story

🩷 Rescue Story Ongal was admitted to "Jeongeup City Shelter" in very poor condition, with her coat badly matted and tangled. She spent her days clinging to the shelter environment, clearly overwhelmed. Thankfully, she was rescued before things worsened and moved into a foster home, where she has been able to recover both physically and emotionally. In a safe setting, her bright and lively personality has begun to shine. 🌿 Temperament & Behavior Ongal gets along well with other dogs and is currently living harmoniously with a Pomeranian and a Pomeranian mix. She enjoys canine companionship and would do well in a multi-dog household, especially with dogs of similar size or age. With people, she needs only a brief moment to warm up—after about ten seconds of observation, one treat is usually all it takes for her to become friendly and engaged. Her compatibility with cats has not yet been tested. 🚶 Walking & Daily Life Ongal may pull slightly on the leash at first, but her walking is easily manageable and improves quickly once boundaries are clearly communicated. She responds well to guidance and understands verbal cues. Her shedding level is moderate, around 5 out of 10. She has no food allergies and eats very well. She strongly prefers outdoor potty breaks and will often hold her bathroom needs if she doesn’t get a walk. 🏡 Habits & Training Ongal is comfortable with grooming and does well during baths and professional grooming sessions. She does not have separation anxiety and is crate trained, staying calm and relaxed even when separated in her own space. She may bark briefly when deliveries arrive, but she settles down quickly afterward. She rides well in the car and does not experience motion sickness. 💛 Likes & Personality Ongal loves tug-of-war games and enjoys running and playing with her dog friends. She does not like sudden approaches, so calm and gentle introductions are best. A home with other dogs of similar size or age would be a great match for her. She is currently living in a foster home.

Story

Meet Sammy, our miracle puppy!Our sweet boy just turned a year old and has gone though more medical challenges than any puppy should have to. Born anatomically incorrect, he has needed multiple surgeries starting at a very young age to be just to be able to relieve himself comfortably. He is unfortunately fecally incontinent with soft stool permanently due to his challenges, and needs to wear a diaper, but he's a pro at his diaper changes and butt baths at this point and seems to enjoy the extra pampering and attention. Like having a baby that will never grow up, if you are an empty nester missing having a baby rely on you for care he's the perfect little project for hopefully the next 15 years! He's been lovingly raised in a foster home since he was only a few weeks old and is finally ready to find a permanent home committed to his special needs and extra care for life. He's otherwise a happy playful puppy, loves other dogs, about 10lbs of fun playful terrier scruffiness. He needs a very special understanding person committed to giving him the best life possible, and willing to go the extra mile to keep him clean and happy for life. Please submit an application to meet Sammy by appointment Primary Color: Black Age: 1yrs 0mths 1wks

Story

Meet Violet — The Little Survivor With the Biggest Heart and an adorable Personality! Violet is an approximately 5-year-old small terrier mix who has already lived one incredible comeback story. She was rescued from an RV in Pennsylvania where she lived with nearly 40 other small dogs in a heartbreaking hoarding situation. On top of that, this tiny girl had a large hernia hanging from her little body — but thanks to PPAR and our amazing vet team, she received the life-saving surgery she needed. And now? She’s thriving, safe, and finally living her best life. About Violet: • Sweet as can be — one of the kindest, gentlest dogs you’ll ever meet • Has a fun, adorable little personality • Will very clearly let you know when she wants to be picked up for cuddles or belly rubs • Total snugglebug who melts right into your arms and loves to give kisses, even when you aren't ready for one! • Dog-friendly and loves other pups • Obsessed with stuffies • Working on house training and doing well with frequent outdoor breaks Despite her rough start and years of neglect, Violet is nothing short of amazing. She’s resilient, loving, and so deserving of a family who will cherish her forever. If you’re looking for a sweet, silly, cuddly little dog who will adore you endlessly, Violet is your girl. She is spayed, vacccined, and microchipped. She is being fostered in Clementon NJ https://peytonsplaceanimalrescue.org/adoption-application ##2601649##

Usually we are in our foster homes so this is a bit more stressful and a slightly artificial environment but we do want to be seen and find our furever homes too. Please consider providing a home for more than one dog, especially if you are considering adopting a puppy.
