Story

Meet Jackson – The Quirky Gentleman with a Big Personality At around 7 years old, Jackson is the perfect blend of charm, independence, and heart. This small terrier cross may have a few gray whiskers, but he’s still full of spunk — the kind of dog who keeps life interesting in the best way possible. Jackson has what we lovingly call a “cat-like personality.” One moment, he’s your biggest fan, ready for cuddles and belly rubs; the next, he’ll politely excuse himself for some alone time, as if to say, “I love you, but I need my space.” It’s all part of his quirky charm — and those who understand him quickly fall in love with his funny, expressive ways. Despite his independent streak, Jackson is affectionate, loyal, and easy to have around. He enjoys short walks, relaxing in a sunny spot, and being near his person — even if he’s pretending not to pay attention. What Makes Jackson Special: Senior sweetheart with personality and wit Small and manageable size — easy travel companion or apartment buddy Leash and house trained Prefers to be the only dog (he enjoys peace and quiet) Best in a calm, adult home where he can set the pace and routine Jackson is neutered, healthy, and current on vaccinations. He doesn’t need much — just a soft bed, a gentle hand, and someone who appreciates his mix of independence and affection. After all, Jackson isn’t looking for constant attention — he’s looking for understanding, for someone who loves him for who he is: a loyal, sometimes silly, always endearing little companion with a big heart.

Story

Meet Ghost – The Gentle White Soul Who’s Learned to Love Again Once a spirited, vocal boy who barked at everything and everyone, Ghost has grown into a calm, loving senior who has come such a long way. Now around 6 years old, this beautiful white Pitbull mix has learned that the world isn’t so scary after all — and that love doesn’t always need words (or sound). Ghost is deaf, and that’s shaped both his challenges and his charm. Because he can’t hear other dogs’ cues — or always send his own clearly — he sometimes misreads doggy body language, which can lead to brief misunderstandings. For that reason, Ghost would do best as an only pet or with a very calm, understanding dog companion who respects his space. These days, Ghost enjoys a peaceful life filled with simple joys: Car rides (he loves the motion and the view) Toys he can toss around or carry proudly Lounging quietly near his people Bonding deeply with those who earn his trust — his foster dad is his best friend, and that bond shows just how much love this boy has to give Ghost has truly mellowed with time and care, turning from anxious to affectionate. His foster describes him as sweet, loyal, and gentle, once he feels secure. Update: Ghost did amazing at a recent adoption event. He was calm and interacted well with other dogs. He has come a long way. He is beautiful and amazing. Special Note: Ghost is neutered, microchipped, and current on vaccines. And thanks to his guardian angels, his adoption comes with an incredible gift: 6 free courtesy training sessions with A Pawsitive Alternative Dog Training (Paul Kline) for adopters in the Treasure Valley A beautiful custom painting of Ghost, donated by one of his biggest fans, will go home with his adopter Ghost is ready to find his forever person — someone patient, kind, and understanding of a dog who listens with his heart instead of his ears.

MEET KILLUA (Ki-loo-ah, meaning “Son of Lightning”) ⚡️ Killua is a 3-year-old Boxer/Pittie mix that weighs 87 lbs and has been patiently waiting in rescue for nearly two years. It’s time this lovable boy finally finds his forever home—and whoever adopts him is truly hitting the jackpot! Killua is the perfect mix of goofy, affectionate, and old-soul charm. He’ll flash you the biggest smiles, then curl up next to you, gently placing his paw on your hand for affection. He loves chew toys, treats, and car rides (though he sometimes needs a little encouragement to hop in). He’s smart, playful, and full of personality—whether he’s chasing his brother around the yard, going for walks, or snuggling after playtime. Killua would love to be adopted with his brother, Knightwing, but he can also thrive on his own with another playful dog. •Could do well with older, gentle children (but not toddlers—he’s a big guy and might knock them over) •Does best in a home without cats or small animals •Curious on walks, still improving his leash skills •House-trained and enjoys time both indoors and outdoors •A fenced yard would be ideal One sweet moment: during a walk, a young girl offered him a treat—he gently and politely accepted it. That’s Killua’s heart in a nutshell—big, gentle, and full of love.

Story

💜 JASMINE NEEDS A FOSTER OR ADOPTER 💜 Jasmine’s story is one of survival and second chances. This brave girl spent over a month on the run as a pregnant stray, fending for herself and searching for a safe place to bring her babies into the world. When she was finally found, she led rescuers to an abandoned camp trailer — and inside were eight beautiful, healthy puppies. Her little family was rescued that day. They all went to a temp foster home with Loni Groves until another rescue took in her pups, and Jasmine remained with Loni where she could rest, recover, and learn to trust again. She has since been fully vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed, and now she’s ready to find a foster or forever home of her own. Jasmine is looking for a calm, patient home — ideally a quiet household with a fenced yard and a kind family who can offer her understanding and stability. She enjoys going for walks and does well on a leash, but she still needs slow introductions to new people and other dogs. Jasmine seems to prefer women but can bond well with men who approach her calmly and confidently. She’s not a “project dog” — she’s a soul who’s been through a lot and just needs someone who will meet her with patience, reassurance, and love. Someone who understands the loyal heart of a pittie and can give her the safety she’s always deserved.
