Story
This little cutie has been adopted,,, but check back for newcomers soon.   This little cutie is estimated to be 10-12 years old,, but she's got the spunk of someone much younger..... She's bright eyed and bushy tailed, as they say,,, and always rarin' to go and keep up with any activity going on in her vicinity. She gets along fine with the other small dogs except when access to a food bowl might become contentious.  She was brought into rescue and immediately updated on her vaccinations and heartworm testing as well as being spayed and having a dental done... So now she's ready to go somewhere where she's get lots of love and attention..... She's only about 9#,,,,, so perfect for someone wanting a pint sized lap companion.November 6, 2024, 12:12 am

Story
TOBY HAS BEEN ADOPTED!!!!   This little fella is a real love bug!  I'm hoping one of the kind of adopters who call and ask for a sweet little lap dog will decide he's the right one.  He wants to be with his human all the time,,, so needs someone who is around home most of the time. He's thru his vetting,,,, he got a dental done this week and  is ready to go.  I figured a little preview might be a good idea so you got to see his "before pics".... now I have a couple newer ones to share We think Toby is about 10 years old and he weighs about 14 pounds.  So far, he's been happy to interact with every human he's met.  He's been fine with all the other dogs, but doesn't seem to have much interest in them, one way or the other,,,, he wants a person.  We haven't had any opportunity to see how he is with cats.November 6, 2024, 12:12 am

Story
,,,, Molly is the typical cream or light blond Peke.  Her coat looked like she's had it rough for awhile, but that has improved with time and good food.  And she loves food.   She's a real sweet girl who came to us blind and after checking with our vet, it was determined that while she had no vision, her eyes weren't bothering her at all, so we just left well enough alone. She adapts well to new surroundings and has been remarkable in her ability to wander around amongst other small dogs and just find her way without any problem.  Blindness is totally different for dogs than we humans think it would be,,,, vision isn't the sense they depend on most... She has developed a heighten sense of smell I guess,,, and can notice a hot dog treat at quite a distance! December 14, 2024, 11:36 am

Story
Update on ViVi..... she was adopted into a multi-pet household and over a period of a couple months, she made it quite clear that she wasn't very interested in sharing space with other dogs... She seems quite fine with  cats,,, but became quite territorial with the dogs. So we're looking for a more appropriate home for this little girl.... she gets around real well,,, seems to be in need of a bit of a diet,,, as carrying extra weight on three legs won't help her in the long run.  But otherwise,,, she's happy healthy and ready to find a place where she can be queen of the castle. We've been having a new adventure recently!  We took in a little Peke girl who had sustained an injury to one front leg that had destroyed the nerves,,, so while the leg was not broken,,, it was useless and not fixable.... She has recently gone thru the surgery to have that leg amputated and does amazingly well on three legs ,,, both before dealing with the useless one,, and since even better without that nuisance..... She's a darling little girl ,, she's been spayed and all ready to find a forever home with someone who doesn't need to provide much in the way of special treatment,, but who will need to be careful that she doesn't do more than she should as far as jumping off things and dealing with stairs etc.... (she doesn't consider herself the least bit handicapped and won't hesitate to try things on her own). She has been kept pretty much on her own here, but has interacted with several other small dogs.  The rest of our crew are pretty much old, blind, or grumpy,,, so she's not had much opportunity to find a suitable playmate.  Nor has she seemed unhappy when she was left without other canine company. She will be a wonderful companion for someone and just needs a person to keep an eye on her enthusiasm and youthful exuberance....  December 14, 2024, 11:36 am

Story
Popy and Hopper are very playful, energetic and full of life. They're part of the same litter and are very pair bonded. They're 8-9 months old and it hurts me to leave them. But I'm leaving the state and I need to find a good home for them. They like to play a lot and are pretty rowdy sometimes, but their very sweet loving pups

Story
Hi, I'm Jamal, a 2-year-old husky mix. I'm as friendly as they come and I've lived with other dogs before, so I know the ropes. I'm quite the social butterfly in fact! I love to play and make new friends. I've got a lot of love to give and I'm looking for a forever home where I can share it. I promise to be your loyal companion, always there with a wagging tail and a playful spirit. I may be in a shelter now, but I dream of a warm home, full of love and kindness. If you adopt me, you're not just getting a pet, you're gaining a friend for life. ADOPTION FEE $86.00 (cash only) Includes: Neuter, Rabies, DHPP and Bordatella Vaccinations (additional boosters not included) General Deworming, heartworm test, and Microchip.
