Story
Fiesta means party and holidays are a time to party. If you really want to have a fun party, you’ll come to meet Fiesta! This sweet girl is just a year old and is the nicest lady you could hope to party with. She was rescued from the streets and is just as loveable and grateful as can be to have a chance to find the loving home she wants and deserves. If you come to meet her, Fiesta will greet you with a wagging tail, curl up near you and ask you for petting (and maybe even treats). So, please come to meet this charming young lady and then take her home to party for many years to come.

Story
Hear ye, hear ye: get ready for the Boy Wonder! Can homelessness stop him? No! This pretty brindle boy, about 2 and ½ years old, is full affection and a zest for life and for every person he meets. He’s got a bouncy enthusiasm but is quick to understand when the bouncing should stop. He’s a beauty, who is ready to learn everything good that life has to offer and give back heaps in return. A volunteer who recently spent time with him had this to share: Took Boy Wonder out yesterday. He was so sweet and such a good listener. We took him back to our apartment and got him some treats and toys. He slept and played and always wanted to sit right next to us. He loves toys and isn’t destructive at all. He also loves pup cups! He was so gentle and sat very nicely and waited. He wants to just curl up right in your lap and get some kisses and hugs. We also took him on a little walk by the water and he was so happy to be outside! Sits very nicely in the car! Knows sit, stay and lay down. I completely fell in love with him.

Story
Fila has won The Biggest Doggie Smile Ever contest! Would you please just look at that happy face. She at one time was not the happiest pups though. Poor gal arrived here as a stinky stray not feeling too good. HRA wasted no time fixing her up which made her smile even bigger! Fila is now feeling frisky and loved. She so enjoys her time outside with us and especially loves getting cuddles and treats. The way she trots alongside us is so charming and fun! So, meet this fun, wiggly sweetie today.
