Story
To adopt or for more information, please visit http://TaysiaBlue.com The year...1903. Setting...stunning Niagra Falls, NY. Thanks to the Shredded Wheat Company, Triscuits began pleasing consumers everywhere! According to my research, the name of this delicious square is a combo of 'electricity' and 'biscuit'. Wait.....I like biscuits....and am I the only one feeling the electricity between us?? Hi, I'm Triscuit!! The delightful little cracker packed with a flavorful crunch right down to the very last crumbs. My life started out pretty crumby, but I found my way to a great foster family who is teaching me all I need to know about living a not-so-crumby life! Instead of miles of open space with nobody in sight, I now have dogs to play with! And kids who love me! And a lap?!? Oh my dog, laps are the best!! How have I never been in a lap before?!? Please don't make me get out....I really love being loved and cuddled!! Pets feel very nice, too. I have very quickly learned that I can trust hoomans and approach willingly in search of more love. My flakiness has subsided ...no more fear-filled days for me! I've come a long way out of my cracked wheat shell! I have been learning so much in foster care. I like my box, it's woven like me, and offers a safe space for me to lay. I sleep all night in my special box without issue! I'm learning potty training skills....and that nobody wants to pet a soggy cracker....whoopsie. I'll get there! Walking is interesting. What's this...string?...around my neck and why is it holding me back?? Ah....this is used for wrapping up Foster Mom's ankles while she walks! Hmmm, seems strange, but she appears to be asking for a continuous game of 'Capture the Foster Mom'. That really crackers me up! I win everytime....so easy to weave around her ankles. She, fur some reason, does not enjoy this game as much as I do. So, back to this 'elecTRISCUITy... Ya' feelin' it???? Apply to meet me today!!! I may be a crumb, but I'm gonna satisfy your desire for fun and excitement!!To adopt or for more information, please visit http://TaysiaBlue.com June 30, 2025, 6:05 pm

Story
To adopt or for more information, please visit http://TaysiaBlue.com Hi! I'm Brie! I'll try not to be too cheesy while I tell you about myself. I found myself with a passel of puppies, but now I'm ready to strike out and find my own happy ever after. I'm pretty easy-going in general, and fit in comfortably in my foster pack. I enjoy an enthusiastic walk, but also have my Siberian Swirl down pat. So far I'm proving to be very adaptable as I transition from my role as homeless single mama to happy, healthy houseguest. If you're looking for a young lady who's ready and able to find her way into the world and into your heart, then ask for some Brie, and I'll stop by to collect your cheese tax payments.To adopt or for more information, please visit http://TaysiaBlue.com June 30, 2025, 5:43 pm

Running! Jumping! Chasing! ZOOMIES! I also love walks. I’m told I do very well on my leash, even if I do get excited from time-to-time.

To adopt or for more information, please visit http://TaysiaBlue.com I might be a grilled cheese ... because I'll melt your heart! I'm Muenster - the creamy comfort food of puppies! I came to rescue with my mom and the rest of the 'cheese and crackers' litter. When I got to my foster home I was so scared. I wouldn't go in the house and the first night I slept outside with my Momma. Just a few weeks later I was sleeping cuddled up on my human foster mom's legs! I quickly went from a scared, little puppy to trying to run the house like a teenager! Walkies are amazing! I run to the door and wait to put on my harness to go outside. I've done well walking both by myself and with a pack of five. I run to the door and wait to put on my harness to go outside. I use the dog door to do my business 95% of the time. Once in a while I get so nervous I pee, but that will keep improving. I'm quickly growing more confident and doing better with sudden movements and noises. Speaking of nosies, when I hear the 'special' treats come out, I run to my kennel and wait. (Duck treats are my current fave!) I love chewing and discovering new toys in the yard. I'm eager to learn and to please. Right now I'm on the smaller side, but I still have a lot of growing to do. I don't want to sound cheesy, but did I mention that I'm extremely handsome?? I love getting all the attention and could probably do well as a lone dog, or as part of a pack that can match my puppy energy! (Boy do I have a lot of it!) I am getting a little tired of the 'aged cheese' resident dog here yelling 'GET OFF MY LAWN (aka the couch)!' at me ... I'd love to have a young and playful pup friend. If you think we'd pair well together, fill out an application and mention me, Muenster!To adopt or for more information, please visit http://TaysiaBlue.com June 30, 2025, 5:43 pm

To adopt or for more information, please visit http://TaysiaBlue.com Hey, there! I'm Racy Lacey. I may not be a youngster, but I've still got plenty of spring in my step. I love some fun walks, car rides, and yard exploration. I tend to be the large-and-in-charge type of gal when it comes to fur friends, but how could anyone not give way in the presence of such fabulousness? Every hooman I meet falls in love with my adorable looks and affectionate personality. I've got lovely house manners and am looking for a family to enjoy my company and give me the admiration which I deserve. If you think that's you, then apply to adopt me, Racy Lacey, and I'll trot on over to say hello!To adopt or for more information, please visit http://TaysiaBlue.com June 30, 2025, 5:43 pm

Story
To adopt or for more information, please visit http://TaysiaBlue.com Roasted Vegetable? No way.Hot Honey? Gah...far too spicy.Zesty Herb? Meh....tad edgy.Entainment Pack? Mmmmm......sure! Let's go with that. I sure have a lot up my sleeve to share with you and I'll keep ya guessing! Hello, I'm Ritz!! When I first arrived in foster care I was nothing but a crushed short stack of crumbs with no desire to pick myself up off the floor. My very favorite game was hide and seek....but I didn't want to be found. I would shake with fear, losing more crumbs in the process and becoming soggy anytime anyone would touch me or even come close. I'm really working on that. I haven't actually been sought after, haven't been wanted or a part of a family....ever. Foster Mom kept forcing me out of hiding and pouring me into her lap. I found out I actually like laps...laps are nice and I may want to try that again soon. I like to be pet and I'm working really hard at finding the courage to ask for love, not run when it comes to me, and play hide and seek a lot less. I really enjoy playing with other dogs and my confidence has increased everyday while being around my foster pack. I really like my giant box and go in without a problem. I sleep all night long in my box! Sure wish it was red.... Everything is so interesting to me and my head is constantly tilting. I like to learn the source of sounds, investigate where the small hoomans are running to now, and why things smell so good in that one room of the house..... Mmmmmm, that is my favorite room, fur sure. Once I began picking up my many crumbs, I have not stopped putting myself back together again. I am eager to learn and can't wait to look back on my crumby start with a confident smile. I'm a little round crumb of a cracker interested in a life full of love and patience as I continue to gain trust of the entirely new environment around me. Love is the greatest thing I've ever felt. Do you have some to share with me???  To adopt or for more information, please visit http://TaysiaBlue.com June 30, 2025, 5:43 pm
