Asher **Currently Available for Adoption!** Good with Kids & Dogs! Meet Asher! 6 yr./41 lb./Male/Aussie Mix Name: Asher Age: 6 years Weight: 41 lbs Breed: Aussie Mix Status: Certified sweetheart with strong “boyfriend energy” and a lifetime of love to give 💛 ​ About Me: Hi, I’m Asher — professional softie, loyal sidekick, and full-time heart thief. I may be 6, but don’t let that fool you — I’ve mastered the art of being the perfect mix of chill, affectionate, and always happy to join whatever you’re doing. I love walks, fresh air, and being part of the action, but I’m just as content relaxing nearby, keeping you company like the devoted best friend I was born to be. I’m incredibly sweet, deeply loving, and have that special Aussie way of watching you like you’re the most important thing in the world… because to me, you are. ​ Best Qualities: • Extremely sweet and affectionate • Loyal in that “I’ll follow you anywhere” kind of way • Smart, attentive, and eager to make you proud • Gentle, loving, and easy to have by your side ​ Ideal Match: • Someone who wants a true best friend, not just a pet • A home that enjoys walks, adventures, and cozy downtime • Humans who appreciate a dog who loves deeply and sincerely • Anyone ready to be adored every single day ​ Deal Breakers: • Being ignored when I’m trying to love you • Humans who don’t allow gentle shadowing from room to room • Anyone unwilling to accept unlimited loyalty and affection ​ Fun Fact: I give the kind of soft, loving eye contact that makes people say, “Okay… he definitely understands everything.”

I may sound fancy, but don’t be fooled… I’m a playful, curious puppy who loves being right in the middle of the action. I’m smart, spunky, and full of personality. Whether I’m zooming around, learning new things, or locking eyes with you using my irresistible puppy stare, I know how to make an impression. I bring just the right mix of sweetness and confidence — shaken, not shy. ​ Best Qualities: • Smart, confident, and curious • Playful with a bold personality • Great with kids and other dogs • Eager to learn and explore • Natural scene-stealer with puppy eyes ​ My Ideal Match: • A family or individual ready for puppy fun and training • Humans who appreciate a little sass with their sweetness • A home full of love, laughter, and adventure • Someone ready for a lifelong best friend ​ Deal Breakers: • Not for someone wanting a low-energy or fully trained dog • Puppies need patience, structure, and time • Looking for forever — not casual dating ​ Fun Fact: I don’t just enter rooms — I make entrances. ​ This Valentine’s season, Martini isn’t just a pretty face — she’s the full package. If you’re looking for a pup who’s equal parts charm, confidence, and cuddles, Martini is ready to be your pawfect match. 💛🐶🍸

Tengu **Not Available to Be Seen Until Open House on Wednesday 2/25** Good with Kids & Dogs! Meet Tengu! 7 mos./35 lb./Male/Aussie Mix Name: Tengu Age: 7 months Weight: 35 lbs Breed: Aussie Mix Status: Fluffy heartthrob seeking adventure partner (and full-time cuddle rights) 💜 ​ About Me: Hi, I’m Tengu — part athlete, part cuddle bug, and full-time scene stealer. At 7 months old and 35 lbs, I’m right in that “awkwardly adorable teen” phase… long legs, soulful eyes, and just enough confidence to know I look good. I’ve got that classic Aussie mix brain — smart, observant, and always ready to learn something new. I love to play, explore, and be where the action is… but I also melt into you when it’s time to relax. I’m gentle, affectionate, and absolutely convinced that being held is still appropriate at my size. (I will climb into your lap. This is not a suggestion.) I have an “I’m innocent” face that I use strategically. Sometimes I’m planning fun.... Sometimes I’m planning mischief. Either way, I’m very charming about it. ​ Best Qualities: • Smart and eager to please • Playful but gentle with a sweet nature • Great with other dogs • Athletic build = future hiking buddy • Gives “look at him!” energy everywhere he goes ​ My Ideal Match: • An active home ready for walks, play, and training • Someone who appreciates a clever, engaging dog • A family excited to guide a young pup into his glow-up era • Humans who don’t mind a 35 lb lap dog ​ Deal Breakers: • Boring routines • Homes that don’t want to engage my brain • People who pretend they don’t love a little harmless puppy mischief ​ Fun Fact: I have perfected the “I didn’t do it” face… even when I absolutely did.
