Story
Meet Chorizo — the Goodest Good Boy With the Biggest Heart! Chorizo is a 2yearold mixedbreed sweetheart from the Navajo Nation, and at 55 pounds of pure gentleness, he’s the definition of an easygoing, lovable companion. Don’t let his serious photoface fool you — this boy is all soft heart, warm snuggles, and quiet joy. One of Chorizo’s absolute favorite things in the world is his foster dog brother. They hang out, explore, nap, and enjoy life sidebyside. He would thrive with another friendly dog in the home — but he’d also be perfectly content as an only child, soaking up all the love and attention. Either way, he’s a happy, adaptable guy.He’s also shown he can coexist politely with cats — in his previous home, he even made feline friends! Chorizo’s vibe? Chill, sweet, and wonderfully mellow. He’s up for whatever you’re doing — a walk, a cuddle session, a lazy afternoon, or simply being nearby while you go about your day. He’s never shown an ounce of aggression, and his gentle nature shines through in everything he does.  If you’re looking for a steady, loving, loyal companion who brings calm, sweetness, and heartmelting charm into your home, Chorizo is your guy. This wonderful pup is ready to start his next chapter — and he hopes it’s with you. If you would like to adopt please apply at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/  The adoption fee of $250 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.   ##2605874##

Story
Meet Pepper  Pepper is an approximately 2-year-old, 37 pound cattle dog mix with the perfect blend of energy and melt-into-you affection. Pepper’s journey hasn’t been the easiest, so she needs some time to truly trust new people. During that time, she prefers to tuck herself under the bed or coffee table — her safe little hideaways where she can quietly get used to your presence. But once she decides you’re her person? Oh, she loves with her whole heart. When Pepper bonds, she bonds completely. She comes when called, seeks out cuddles, and will happily curl up on the bed to sleep close to you. She craves touch, gentle reassurance, and connection — and she gives it all right back. Despite her initial shyness, Pepper is wonderfully well-mannered in the home. She hasn’t been kenneled once in while she’s been in foster care and has never destroyed a single thing. She’s smart, respectful, and eager to understand what’s expected of her. This congenial girl lives with 4 other dogs of varying sizes and loves them all! Pepper enjoys playing and is pretty energetic in her play-style. She listens well when she is asked to settle down a bit too.  Leash life is still a little scary for her, but with patience, encouragement, and consistency, she will absolutely get there — especially because this girl is very intelligent and wants to please. Another friendly, confident dog in the home will help her continue to learn and feel safe. Pepper is looking for: A patient foster or adopter Someone who understands shy or sensitive dogs A home with another welcoming dog to show her the ropes A family who will give her the time she needs to trust — and then enjoy the loyal, adoring companion she becomes If you’re the kind of person who finds joy in watching a shy dog blossom — who wants to be someone’s safe place and receive unconditional love in return — Pepper just might be your heart dog. If you give Pepper the time she needs, she’ll give you everything. If you would like to adopt/foster please apply at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/  The adoption fee of $250 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.   ##2594816##

Story
Meet Waldo — our one-of-a-kind survivor  Waldo is a handsome 1-year-old Pitt-Heeler mix with a heart of gold and a story of strength. This gentle soul has been through more than most — he’s a distemper survivor, which left him with some neurological quirks and a little extra wobble (dance prance) in his step. But what really sets him apart isn’t what he’s been through… it’s how much love he still has to give.  Once a likely feral dog, Waldo’s world has been scary and unpredictable — but he’s learning what it means to feel safe, one day and one treat at a time. He’s still shy with strangers, but with his foster, he’s a total goofball: jogging everywhere he goes, prancing through the house, and proudly hogging every blanket and fuzzy pillow he can find.  Waldo is looking for a very special person — maybe that’s you? He needs a calm, patient, and loving home where safety and routine come first. Someone who:  Feels rewarded by earning trust, not instant affection  Can provide a secure yard and careful handling (he will bolt if scared — he earned his name that way!)  Understands that treats = love in Waldo’s world  Enjoys cozy nights in and slow progress that leads to a lifetime bond Waldo enjoys other dogs and could thrive with a confident canine buddy. Cats? Waldo LOVES cats, even if they don't always understand him. He may never be the dog who greets every stranger or walks perfectly at heel, but he’ll be your dog — loyal, silly, tender, and true. The kind of love that feels hard-won and absolutely worth it.  Waldo is looking for his Forever, or a new or even a part-time foster so we can get him used to, and more confident with, more people. If you can offer patience, safety, and a whole lot of heart, Waldo is waiting for you. Learn more or apply to meet him at EAPL.com.  His adoption fee is $375 December 26, 2025, 10:09 am

Story
My day in the life with Stix on 5/3/25, I was his photographer...  Stix is intelligent, he is ready for adventure and enjoys walks and treats. Going for rides to a new park. Enjoys his own space. Other dogs aren’t always his cup of tea. Prefers being the one and only.  He is loyal to his people. He thrives best with all the attention(single dog home). Stix learned a new recall just from the hour  walk we took with the trainer on the long leash. He is in need of mental stimulation along with physical stimulation. Stix has a mixture of breeds gives him beautiful colors in his fur and his eyes are light and dreamy. He would be a perfect match for an active person. A previous dog owner may offer the awareness and the importance routine offers to an intelligent dog. Someone who enjoys an attachment to a doggy friend that loves to chase a ball  and use his athletic ability. He requires an investment that will allow him to build trust with consistency. To allow the bond and safety he seeks in his person.   Ideally, a home that has had experience with loving a dog needing someone willing to develop a relationship and build trust.  To meet Stix, put in an application at  www.eapl.com .   His  Sponsored Adoption Fee is $75 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F03ALyDS-_E https://www.youtube.com/shorts/9_GcmmRUQiw Stix is (est. birthday is 1/18/2020) a total catch. He is smart, food motivated and has been through basic training. He knows how to sit, lay down, stay, shake, rollover and has the cutest, most majestic wolf howl. He LOVES to play fetch, hike and go running. He is crate-trained and house-trained and loves puzzle toys and bones and any games you might teach him. He would do best as a solo dog and no cats and older kiddos. He would make a great companion for an active household.    December 26, 2025, 10:09 am

Story
HEARTHEART Is a sweet, goofy 6 year-old Cattle Dog/Lab mix. We figured out that she has issues with young men - which doesn't speak well of the young men she was likely tortured by. She was great with her last family, including young male teenagers, but during a Halloween party and a later New Year party, she was anxious and wasn't put up and so has a record. We have been working with her with volunteers and she has made a lot of progress. She takes an anti-depressant and is getting her thyroid regulated and will need to be on both long-term. She would be absolutely fantastic to hike with and we speak from experience that she is great to sleep with on a cold night. HeartHeart is reliably house trained, spayed, chipped, current on shots. For foster or adoption information, please email dancingdogrescueco@gmail.com.
