Story
🐾 Foster Feature: Sweet Mel 🐾 We’ve had the pleasure of fostering Mel a handful of times over the past few months when her primary foster has had work commitments — and every single time, she’s settled right back into our home like she never even left. 💛 Mel is such a sweet girl who LOVES to snuggle on the couch and soak up all the love. She enjoys spending time outside and has a favorite spot where she keeps watch and happily greets anyone walking by. 👀🐶 ✨ She’s fully potty trained and crate trained ✨ Sleeps peacefully through the night (crate or curled up at the end of the bed) ✨ Knows her morning routine like a pro — backyard potty time, then breakfast! ✨ Rides well in the car and loves gazing out the window at the world going by 🚗💨 Mel would thrive as the only pet in the home, as she’s still working on being less reactive to other dogs. But trust us — she’s all the dog you need when it comes to love, companionship, and snuggles. 🥰 If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, couch-cuddling companion, Mel just might be your perfect match! ❤️

Story
I've had the pleasure of fostering Jackie for about a month now. She is one of the sweetest dogs you will ever meet. I had originally met her a few weeks earlier when I was fostering another dog and brought them in to meet a potential adopter. She had just come back from a dog day out and was super shy but I got her to come up to me and say hi and she gave me a hug and I said I would be fostering her next if she was still available. It took her a few days to start warming up to me and to take in her new environment but over time she's gotten more comfortable going outside and walking around in the yard. She has heartworm so I haven't really taken her on long walks or played with her much but you can tell once she's feeling better she's going to be a lot of fun. For now she gets lots of rest on the couch or in bed. She has no problem making herself at home once she's comfortable with you and her environment. She's full of love and will cuddle with you all day. She loves belly rubs. She knows her name and is very treat motivated. We taught her how to walk up and down stairs because that was new for her and she will go to the door when she needs to go potty. She gets lots of compliments on how cute she is and does well around strangers and other dogs even if they are barking at her. I can't wait for her to find her forever home and I know whoever that ends up being is going to love her as much as I do."

Story
Vera is an affectionate and well-behaved dog who has quickly become a cherished member of her foster home. She loves to play and cuddle with her family and is always eager for attention. Though she's a strong walker, Vera has been making great progress in her leash skills. She's highly food-motivated and excited to learn new tricks. Vera adores meeting new people and never hesitates to ask for pets and belly rubs, making her a lovable and friendly companion. Hear what Vera's fosters have to say about her! "Vera’s doing great! She’s gained some healthy weight and is having a blast in our cozy apartment. She’s been on a few long drives to my parents’ place, and she’s totally smitten with their bigger home and yard. She’d love a yard where she can run and play to her heart’s content and a home where there are multiple people she can show love and affection to. She’s loves to cuddle, but she’s also got good boundaries. If you ask her to stay in her bed, she’ll respect your space. She’s super food-motivated, so treats are a must for working on her walking, good behavior, and tricks. She’s a pro at crating, and she sleeps like a baby through the night."

Story
Meet Cheyenne, a loving girl who's ready to share her sweet, affectionate nature with the world! Cheyenne has already shown that she loves everyone she meets! She's an outgoing and friendly girl who is always eager to make new friends and spread love wherever she goes. Whether you're looking for a companion to go on adventures or just someone to cuddle with, Cheyenne will be by your side, ready to give all the love she has. If you're looking for a sweet, social dog who loves to be around people, Cheyenne could be the perfect match for you! Hear what was said about this special girl after a dog day out! Cheyenne was an absolute angel on our day out. She is such a loving girl who just wants to be around her people. She started with a little stroll (where she immediately showed off her potty training skills), then politely roamed the aisles of home depot to warm up, and ended the day with a tasty pup cup. She was so easy in the car and laid down the second she hopped in. She seemed very content to just sit, snuggle and get head scratches. Whoever adopts Cheyenne will be very lucky.
