With each passing day, Archie reminds us that age is but a number, and that true joy can be found in the simple pleasures of a good walk, a cozy nap, and the boundless love of a furry friend. Archie needs some dental work but the rescue will be taking care of the cost of his dental care. Future adopters will have the opportunity to "foster-to-adopt" until his mouth is back to its full glory. Once his dental treatment is complete, the rescue will finalize his adoption. Does it sound like you and Archie might be a good fit for each other? Apply now!

Suni

Chihuahua Jack Russell Terrier

Female, 5 yrs

Durham, NC

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Story

Meet Suni, a 5-year-old Chihuahua/Jack Russell Terrier mix with a heart as big as her namesake, gifted gymnast Suni Lee! This little dynamo may be small, but she's full of love. Suni is a loyal canine companion who prefers to be attached at the hip to her chosen person. While she may take a hot minute (or more) to warm up, once she knows she's safe and ready, she's more than happy to snuggle up under a blanket with her favorite person and relax. Suni came to our rescue with skin that had seen more than its fair share of fleas, but her skin and coat improve every day and should be back to normal in no time with continued care. We think Suni would be equally happy in a home where she's the center of attention or has a canine (or perhaps feline) BFF. Suni might be a little bit too anxious to share a home with a tiny young human, but we imagine she'd do well with patient older children. If you're looking for a pint-sized pup who enjoys smiling and sleeping, Suni is the perfect match for you. She's ready to flip her way into your heart and become your new best friend!

He also sleeps through the night perfectly fine outside of the crate and loves to snuggle! He does not show much interest in toys and would prefer to just get cozy with a blanket. While he may bark when he feels overwhelmed or frightened, he is overall a quiet pup once settled into his safe place.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

**AVAILABLE ON-SITE FRIDAYS AND SATURDAYS** Armstrong is a handsome little fella looking for a place to help him readjust to a life of love. While he is very sure of his adoration for a soft couch, fuzzy blankets, and a plush dog bed, he's not too sure about the human touch. Armstrong is slowly but surely working on being comfortable with his people! At a whopping 5lbs, he is a tiny thing looking for lots of reassurance. Armstrong will do almost anything for a treat, making him easy to train. He loves to go outside to potty, but can occasionally have accidents indoors and will require some patience to nail down his potty training in a new space. If he is kept on a schedule, he will do just fine! Armstrong is comfortable in a crate and loves to be tucked in for bed. He currently does not like to be carried, but is getting more comfortable snuggling up around his foster parents. Armstrong is pet friendly as he gets along with dogs of all sizes and even cats. While getting in the car can be a bit scary for him, he is growing to appreciate a nice little road trip. In his foster home, you can find him on the back of the couch taking a nap, or in the kitchen waiting for his next meal. He would work well in a home who is used to small dogs, and a family that wants a tiny independent presence. Make an appointment to bring Armstrong to his furever home!
