Story

Bear was my daughter Angela's dog. Angela passed away Jan 7th. Bear was abandoned as a puppy and Angela took her in. Bear has been the only pet in the household her whole life and will need time to adjust to other dogs or cats. Bear has been around Angela's 2 year old grandson since his birth as Angela babysat him often so she should adjust to other children in time. She will need time to adjust to a new environment as she was the only pet in Angela's household. Bear was Angela's emotional support dog all through life and especially during her illness. No one in Angela's family is able to take Bear in. My experience with Bear is she is a very sweet dog. She is healthy and strong for her age.

Story

Meet Frito — Your Adventure Buddy With a Goofy Heart of GoldTwo-year-old Frito has been on quite the journey—from the edge of euthanasia to rediscovering joy, confidence, and his trademark floppy-tongued grin. Now thriving in foster care, this bouncy ball of energy is looking for a committed, experienced home that appreciates progress, structure, and a whole lot of personality.A Goofball With Endless EnergyFrito is an adventurer at heart. He starts every day ready to move, explore, and play. His exercise routine currently includes:• 2–3 fetch sessions per day (his favorite!),• 3–5 miles of walking or running, often more,• And plenty of general play to burn off his joyful zoom-fuel.He is highly play-motivated and has a hilarious habit of carrying a ball everywhere “just in case.” He also sploots at every opportunity, lets his floppy tongue hang wildly, and melts into any human he trusts—once he’s decided you're his person, good luck getting him off your lap.A Confident, Silly, Sensitive SoulFrito is a mix of bold and tender. He can be mouthy when overstimulated or meeting new people, and he can feel uncomfortable with hands reaching over his head or back. He opens up to women a bit faster, but he does well with men too—he simply needs slow intros and patience.He is not socialized with children, and due to his reactivity and mouthiness, he needs a kid-free home.Dog DynamicsFrito is dog-selective. He has potential with smaller, gentle females (like his friend Roo), but he does not get along with larger males. When he was found, he was with a dog buddy his size, so the right match is possible—but he needs slow, experienced introductions and rescue involvement for safety.What He’s Working OnThis boy has made real progress, but he’s still learning the ropes of home life:• Paw handling (he dislikes his feet touched but is improving)• Reactivity on walks (squirrels are still VERY suspicious)• Doorway manners and impulse control• Separation anxiety, which his foster manages with structure and a calm environment• Toy guarding, which has improved significantly—he allows his foster to take balls from his hoard without issueWhy Frito Is Worth ItFrito is the definition of resilience. He is confident, affectionate, silly, expressive, athletic, loyal, and full of heart.His foster says: “He’s an overall great guy, and I’ll be bummed when we don’t get to hang out every day.”Frito isn’t looking for perfection—just someone patient, active, and experienced who can continue guiding him through the world while celebrating every win along the way.If you’re ready for a dedicated adventure partner with a goofy soul and endless potential, Frito is waiting—with his favorite ball and a heart ready to belong.Adopt Frito. Change his story—and let him change yours. ##2412161##

Story

Meet JonesyAlso known as Joe, Jonathan B, Bonesly, or “that little spotted guy who sneaks under the blankets at bedtime.” Jonesy is a 3-year-old, 50 lb Pit Bull/Boxer mix with a playful heart, a lot of energy, and a deep desire to connect with his person. He’s not a one-size-fits-all dog — but for the right home, he can be an incredibly rewarding companion. Personality & Quirks: Playful, energetic, and always ready to engage. Expressive and vocal; he lets you know what he wants and when he wants it. Enjoys affection in short bursts, but bedtime is non-negotiable — he wants to be under the blankets with his person. A charming, spotted little dog with a big personality. Energy Level & Daily Needs: High energy and thrives with structure. Requires daily exercise, time outdoors, and mental enrichment. Does best with someone who enjoys an active routine and can meet his needs consistently. Affection & Handling: Likes pets and occasional cuddling, though he’s not a constant lap dog. Values closeness on his terms and finds comfort in routine and nighttime companionship. People & Social Behavior: Shy with new people at first, but warms up quickly. Once comfortable, he is relaxed and himself around visitors in the home. No known issues with men, women, or children. Other Animals: Jonesy is happiest as an only pet. He can be selective with other dogs, and anxiety may surface around other anxious animals. Has shown interest in cats, but a multi-pet home is not recommended. Training & Support Needs: Anxiety and high energy have been his biggest challenges. Consistent exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time make a noticeable difference. He benefits from patient, understanding humans who value progress over perfection. Ideal Home: A calm, stable household where Jonesy can be the focus. Someone who appreciates a dog with personality, opinions, and emotional depth. A person looking for a loyal companion and is willing to invest time and care. Bonus: Crate trained. Deeply loving once a bond is formed. Jonesy may not be the easiest dog — but he is a genuine one. For someone ready to meet him where he is, Jonesy offers loyalty, laughter, and a meaningful connection that grows with time. ##2356834##

Story

Meet Rosita — A Resilient Mama with a Heart Full of Love Rosita is a stunning tan, mixed-breed girl weighing around 60 lbs—and truly, someone is missing out on an incredible dog. She is dog-friendly, appears to do well with cats, is potty trained, and does wonderfully when left alone in the house or kennel. With a medium, easy-care coat and minimal shedding, she’s as practical as she is lovable. Rosita is highly intelligent and learns routines quickly. She builds trust surprisingly fast, especially considering everything she’s endured. When she arrived in foster care, Rosita was in very rough shape—severely underweight, anemic, and bleeding heavily. She required an emergency spay to stop the bleeding, all while nursing seven puppies. In her first two weeks alone, she gained nine pounds—an incredible feat given everything her body was handling. This tough little mama amazed everyone. Even on the day of her surgery, she insisted on returning to her puppies to nurse. While we expected days of bottle-feeding, Rosita made it very clear that her babies needed her. We covered about 10 hours during surgery and recovery, but once she was cleared, she demanded to be back with them—and she carried on until she got her way. Despite her past, Rosita does not resource guard. She allows her puppies to eat from her bowl, tolerates petting while eating, and would honestly choose a hug over a treat most days. Affection means everything to her. She loves full-on hugs—with her paws wrapped around your neck—a few times a day, as if making up for a lifetime without enough love. Rosita is a champion cuddler and prefers as much body contact as possible. We’re currently working on teaching her to sit next to you instead of on you, but her intentions are pure—she just wants to be close. She gives a few gentle kisses but isn’t an excessive licker. She does well with people of all ages, though she may put her paws up as a soft request for affection. She wants to play but is still learning how. Toys and chews are new concepts to her, suggesting she likely never had them before. Even so, she approaches everything with curiosity and grace. Rosita may be the most patient and nurturing mother we’ve ever seen. She plays gently with her puppies and continues to nurse them—even now that they have tiny needle teeth. Her nurturing nature runs deep, and once her puppies are grown, that love will undoubtedly transfer fully to her humans. Her spirit is not broken—not even a little. She will bark to ask to go outside and isn’t shy about voicing her opinion if meals are late or it takes too long to bring her back inside. One small habit we’re working on is food stealing if it’s within reach—likely a survival skill from her past. She’s learning that meals are reliable now and that patience brings rewards. Rosita is affectionate, resilient, loyal, and deeply loving. She’s the kind of dog who gives everything she has once she knows she’s safe—and whoever adopts her will be incredibly lucky. ##2606947##
