Story
💕 Meet Little Autumn 🍂 Little Autumn is a calm and gentle 3-month-old pittie mix who is up to date on vaccines and already spayed. She’s basically a professional snuggler in a puppy-sized body. Her favorite thing in the world is you. Belly rubs, quiet cuddles, and being close to her person are her love language. Autumn is thoughtful and observant, taking her time with new things and soaking in the world at her own pace. She loves curling up for naps in her crate, is working on potty training outside, and is flawlessly pee-pad trained. Autumn lives peacefully with cats (zero chase instinct), adores children, and does great with other dogs in her foster home. If you’re looking for a soft, sweet soul who just wants to love and be loved, Autumn is ready to steal your heart. 🐾💗

Story
Run, don't walk and snatch this cutie up before you lose out on the opportunity because Jojo Bean won't be available long! When we say Jojo Bean is absolute perfection, especially considering his age, please believe it! His personality is by far the sweetest and his energy is so mellow to the point that it makes you laugh how mellow he is. Could some say he's a little lazy, sure LOL but we say he's the chillest most unbothered little prince we've ever met! Not only is his personality the absolute best but he's also stinking adorable! I mean, just look at that forever puppy dog face, those cute freckles on his ears, and the wrinkles! He has big dog features while also being small sized, it's so cute! Watch his video and fall in love with his cutie patootie: https://youtu.be/MVuD1LKIk1o?si=zBNt9MK87SmWhBnE Jojo Bean is believed to be a pittie mix approximately 1 year old and currently weighs 44 lbs. One of the very first things that we noticed about Jojo is his energy level!! Most young pups his age basically act like toddlers (if we’re being honest LOL) and are testing out boundaries, have a ton of energy, etc. Not Jojo though! He actually has a pretty relaxed demeanor and is so mellow! Of course, he still has some energy, he's not a total couch potato (unless you want him to be because he will absolutely be a total couch guy if you want) but he is more mature than most 1 year old pups we’ve ever met. He is a rescue dog and with any rescue, it’s always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age. Jojo is super dog friendly and has gotten along great with every dog we have introduced him to and is currently being fostered in a multi dog home with 2 large pittie mixes and 4 small dogs. Some of which are as little as 3lbs. He’s been with super dominant males, dominant females, really shy and shutdown dogs, dogs that like to roughhouse, play chase, dogs that just like to hangout and do their own thing, and he’s been a perfect prince with them all. He does great meeting dogs on leash and even does great meeting dogs off leash as well. Jojo loves making friends with other dogs and already has amazing social skills. He is good about matching the energy of the other dogs. He will play when play is invited and will enjoy those relaxing hangout moments too. Jojo also met our house cat Biggie and met him appropriately and was very respectful around him. He did not chase Biggie, nor was he bothered by Biggie jumping or doing what cats do. Biggie also felt comfortable around him too. We do not know if he has ever lived in a home before with a cat and this was our first time seeing him with a cat. If you have a cat in the home, we can arrange for him to have a sleepover with a cat upon request. Just let us know! When he is with a confident dog that likes to play, his play style is still very much puppy-like in the sense that it’s bouncy, a little mouthy, with a game of tag you’re it from time to time too. Jojo shares affection with other dogs too, no jealously here and he also is comfortable sharing treats around other dogs as well. He is just a sweet baby that has such a go with the flow personality. We would love to see him in a home with another dog, but he would be completely fine as your one and only as well. Jojo is already so well behaved and according to his foster, already has wonderful house manners too. He walks well on a leash and he is even good at tandem walking next to another dog. He could be a pack walk master in no time! Jojo comes prepped already knowing a couple of basic commands as well, such as sit and is so gentle when he takes treats. He loves treats, is eager to please, and has already proven he's a smart little boy. The perfect trifecta for any additional training you would like to do with him in the future. It'll be an enjoyable bonding experience for you both. Jojo is crate trained and is completely potty trained. His foster reports that he has not had one accident in the house and never gave the impression of even attempting. Jojo also knows how to use a doggy door! Jojo Bean would thrive in a home with a back yard where he can romp around, stretch his legs, play with his toys, and relax in the sun. He also has the potential of thriving in an apartment/condo setting as well with the proper exercise and socialization. He doesn’t need much but a long walk to the park, a place where he can play fetch, or even in home mental stimulation puzzles. He would love that too. In all honesty though, he is completely happy being a total couch potato as well. So get ready for lazy Sunday movie marathon snuggles with Jojo because that's what's going to happen. He'll enjoy mini adventures as well, just be prepared to be stopped by everyone because he’s so stinking cute. Jojo is the best of both worlds in our eyes. We haven’t seen Jojo around kids just yet and we can absolutely test that for you. Based off what we already know about him, we believe he would make a great family dog. We are willing to test Jojo Bean with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Story
Kesha is a dog who’s core belief is that you should sprinkle joy around like confetti. All perfectly petite 30-lbs of her bursts with rainbow happiness- simply she is equal parts lover-girl and party starter (where do you think she got the name.) She’s estimated to be around 1.5 years old (best guess!), possibly a pittie/pointer mix (shot in the dark on that), and she hands out confetti kisses like it’s her full-time job. Want to see Kesha “Confetti Kisses” in action? Head to YouTube for “Kesha | Confetti Kisses & Rainbow Bounce”. https://youtu.be/8CuP03M1mAk Out and about, Kesha is wildly people-friendly. The day we met her she popped right out of the car and hopped over to the group and greeted everyone, and then got so excited about all the love that she did the cutest happy spins! Don’t worry, she isn’t all bounce though, she settles once she is inside, but her vibe is still: love me, love me, love me (and yes, she while you try to fight it she will sneak at least one whole face kiss). With other dogs, she is exactly her same bouncy self. Meeting new friends on-leash comes with happy-ready-to-play greetings and off-leash bouncing alongside her new friend. She is still learning to “speak-dog” fluently but has a light-hearted approach to play and doesn’t take it personal if a dog doesn’t want to play, she will simply walk away. She would love and thrive with a medium-energy, social dog who can model good play for her to continue to learn from and also respect breaks. When we introduced her to our house cat she was respectfully curious and a bit unsure, she didn’t bark, and was happy to observe him from a distance. We see the signs of a dog who could live with a cat if she had a dog friend to channel her playful side with. If needed, a sleepover with our Kitty-Committee to get a better understanding of how she may be. Kesha is sweet, unpolished potential with the smarts and attention to learn anything you’re teaching. Her leash skills are improving but she will need to continue her practice with you by her side. Meet her with the same upbeat energy she brings, rewards the good moments, and she will learn whatever your’e teaching. Apartment life? Potentially yes, depending on the complex and your routine. If you’re an active household who enjoys outings and can commit to continued leash training, Kesha would be a fun little sidekick for the city-life version of adventure. If you want a cheerful, trainable sweetheart who’s basically a walking celebration, Kesha is absolutely your girl! Get the party started- apply today!

Story
Meet Macy, the tiny, tender-hearted house hippo you didn’t know you needed. 💕 Macy is about four years old and a perfect little 36 pounds of sleepy, snuggly goodness. Truly, she is lap-sized perfection. She fits curled up in your lap like she was custom-made for it, and she’s so easy to scoop up and carry around that you’ll constantly be wondering how you ever lived without a “portable dog.” She is calm, chill, and has strong cozy-girl energy! She is the kind of dog who is happiest being near you, snoozing deeply, occasionally opening one eye to check if it’s time for ear scratches yet. Breed-wise, Macy looks like she could be a Staffordshire terrier combined with a Pitty, which explains her compact size, sweet blocky little face, and her absolutely iconic ears. And speaking of ears… she has quite possibly the cutest ear of all time. She adores ear scratches and will dramatically tilt her head way off to the side when you hit the right spot, melting everyone in the room instantly. Add in her tiny white sock feet, her gentle piggy snorts, and the adorable little “smacks” she makes when taking treats (very politely, by the way), and you’ve got a dog who is unintentionally hilarious just by existing. Watch her tiny cuteness on camera in her video! https://youtu.be/T8FvTHmh13c?si=6VzGvhtKSG2tZXul Macy is a soft, sensitive soul who takes a little time to feel safe. She can be aloof at first and prefers to observe the world rather than jump right into it, but once she bonds with you, she loves deeply and quietly. She did well with dogs and is friendly, just not playful. She’s much more of a “let’s peacefully coexist” kind of gal. She could do well with a calm, respectful male dog who doesn’t get in her face, but she would also be perfectly content as your one-and-only, soaking up all the love, pets, and scratch sessions for herself. She walks easily on leash, loves treats, and would enjoy a backyard where she can wander, sniff, and take in the world at her own pace. That said, she’s also an excellent apartment candidate thanks to her mellow nature and small size, ideally a quieter apartment, as loud or unpredictable environments can be a bit overwhelming for her at first. Macy would thrive in a home with patient, understanding humans who will let her warm up on her own timeline. She could live with respectful older kids (we’d recommend 12+) who understand giving dogs space and reading boundaries. She’s not a dog who rushes into love, but when she chooses you, she chooses you fully. Macy is gentle. She’s sleepy. She’s soulful. She’s a tiny little lap potato with a heart of gold and a face you’ll never get tired of looking at. If you’re searching for a calm, loving companion who just wants a safe place to land, soft beds to nap on, and someone who will cherish her for the beautiful, sensitive girl she is… Macy might just be your perfect match.

Story
This cutie is Sryix .She is currently 2 months old and weighs approximately 9lbs. We think they may be a Pitbull/lab mix, but with rescue it’s a guess! What matters most is that they are adorable and are one the MOST desperate in the entire US based on statistics for where this puppy is from. Shelters in this area are having to euthanize puppies. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from us, it saves their life as well as the life of another in its place. Watch Sryix’s playful personality here: https://youtu.be/FWBzGnOKOpo?si=LMvnsTGo1biVouEu Sryix is playful, sweet, curious, and cuddly. She loves to play with her siblings and take lots of naps. Eat, sleep, play, repeat- such is puppy life! We pride ourselves in being able to give you good personality and behavioral information to help ensure this baby is the right fit for you. You are also welcome to do a Facetime call to meet your new baby before signing paperwork! Sryix is still very young and will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. A puppy is discovering new things that shape their personalities with each passing day. Implementing routine, structure, setting boundaries, and proper socialization is key from the start. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy starting immediately when arriving at their new home, which will help with potty training, energy management, and the overall development of a well-rounded adult dog. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend! Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Story
This cutie is Onyx. He is currently 2 months old and weighs approximately 8lbs. We think they may be a pitbull/lab mix, but with rescue it’s a guess! What matters most is that they are adorable and are one the MOST desperate in the entire US based on statistics for where this puppy is from. Shelters in this area are having to euthanize puppies. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from us, it saves their life as well as the life of another in its place. Watch Onyx’s playful personality here: https://youtu.be/FWBzGnOKOpo?si=9iluOrCIMxw0Lvee Onyx is playful, sweet, curious, and cuddly. He loves to play with his siblings and take lots of naps. Eat, sleep, play, repeat- such is puppy life! We pride ourselves in being able to give you good personality and behavioral information to help ensure this baby is the right fit for you. You are also welcome to do a Facetime call to meet your new baby before signing paperwork! Onyx is still very young and will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. A puppy is discovering new things that shape their personalities with each passing day. Implementing routine, structure, setting boundaries, and proper socialization is key from the start. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy starting immediately when arriving at their new home, which will help with potty training, energy management, and the overall development of a well-rounded adult dog. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend! Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+.

Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
