Story
Toby loves to be highly active though he can also relax with his family. He loves his K9 buddies and we feel he'd be happiest in a home with another active dog/ dogs. He's still a young dog and needs love and guidance from his humans whom he wants to please. Toby would probably love to be with older children and have a big secure backyard where he can romp and play with with his family and k9 sibling/ siblings. He is fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. He can travel anywhere in the US and Canada. ##1501938##

Story
Jax is rescue that we adopted as a 6wk old puppy. He is now almost 7 and is an amazing, loving dog that we are very reluctant to give up. However, we recently welcomed our 1st child to the family and we unfortunately no longer have the time available to give him the amount of attention he deserves. Jax will thrive in a home that has a fenced backyard to play in or with an owner that enjoys long walks. He would be great for a family with grown children that can run around with him. There have been no problems with him and our child, so he would do well with small children as well, but would likely enjoy the company and energy of bigger kids that can play with him. Regardless of your situation, Jax will make an excellent companion for whom ever adopts him! He really just needs someone that will love him and give him all the belly rubs!

Story
Hey there, I’m Gus, a little guy with a short, to the point name that means “Exalted” or “Great One”! Though my name seams simple, it’s thought to be a PERFECT name for a “little Royal in your life”. It’s sweet yet the embodiment of power and royalty. Yep, that’s me, a GREAT little boy, short in stature weighing in at only 35# or so just 3 years old. Taken in by Molly’s Place, my bro Sly and I have been waiting for a chance for our furever home. Mom came in with us. Said to be a sharp looking possibly PURE Basenji she has already gotten a home. Dad, well, mom never said, but he had to have been a hansom dude cause this apple didn’t fall far from the tree. I’m really have a handsome pooch if I do say so myself. Decked out in a Glistening Brindle fur mix of browns, chestnut and black, my coat is short, face ever so sweet, cute tipped ears, set off by my soulful golden eyes.   Although initially shy, I do warm up and known to be great with adults and other doggies. Fast moving children scare me so best if no children in my home. Once settled in and confident, I’ll bring SUNSHINE into your life with my playful charm and goofy character. Although I’m NOT a wild child, I do need some exercise and a 4 foot fence would suit my just fine giving me initial boundaries. If you have it in your heart to reach out to a little boy that only needs a chance to prove what love is, get going, fill out an application and come meet up with me. You will not regret it!  Gus, is waiting for his new life to begin! To submit an adoption application, visit mollysplacerescue.org.

PERSONALTY FROM TIP OF MY TAIL TO THE STRIP UP MY NOSE! My ears are tipped, eyes “Golden/Brown” that show I’m a “Soft Soul”. Taken in by Molly’s Place, my bro Gus and I have been waiting for a chance for our furever home. Mom came in with us and was for sure a sharp looking possibly PURE Basenji. Fortunately, she has already gotten a home. Dad, well, mom never said, but he had to have been a hansom dude as well. Yep, good looks run in the family!   Although initially shy, I do warm up and known to be great with adults and other doggies. Fast moving children scare me so best if no children in my home. Once settled in and confident, my fun loving yet gentle demeanor shines though. I do need some exercise and a 4 foot fence would suit my just fine giving me initial boundaries and safety.
