Tommy | Male | 2 Years | Dachshund Mix | 18.6 lbs | Good with Dogs & Kids (8+)

Tommy’s story is one of resilience and second chances. This little guy was cruelly thrown from a car on a busy street, left to fend for himself. But despite his tough past, his heart remains full of love, and he’s ready to start fresh with a family who will cherish him.

At first, Tommy can be a little cautious, but once he trusts you, his sweet and playful side shines through. He loves gentle pets, ear rubs, and playtime—especially when there’s a ball to chase! Rolling around on a comfy dog bed is one of his favorite pastimes, and he’s learning that life can be filled with fun and love.

Tommy gets along great with other dogs and is curious about kids, though he’d do best in a home with older children who understand his need for space as he builds confidence. He’s not a fan of being picked up just yet, but with patience, he’s learning that affection can come in many different ways.

This special boy needs a kind-hearted adopter who will continue to show him that the world isn’t such a scary place. He prefers a harness over a collar for walks and will thrive with someone who is gentle and understanding.

Neutered, heartworm negative, and ready for a forever home, Tommy is hoping for a family who will love him for the incredible little survivor he is. Could that be you?

Trace | Male | 9 Years | Shetland Sheepdog | 26.8 lbs | Good with Dogs & Cats | Best in an Adult-Only Home

Trace’s world was once small but full of love. He spent his life with one devoted owner who adored him, but he was never socialized outside of their home. When his owner’s health declined and they entered hospice care, Trace’s life was turned upside down. Suddenly, everything he knew was gone, and he found himself scared, confused, and searching for comfort.

This beautiful Shetland Sheepdog is looking for a patient and understanding family to help him rebuild his sense of security. He thrives in a calm, quiet home where he can adjust at his own pace. Loud noises and sudden movements still make him nervous, but once he trusts you, he transforms into the most loyal, loving companion. He greets his favorite people with an excited wag and a happy prance, and his absolute favorite activity is playing fetch—he’ll chase after the ball as many times as you’re willing to throw it.

Trace does well with other dogs and even gets along with cats, but he needs an adult-only home where he can feel completely at ease. He’s incredibly intelligent and eager to bond, but new experiences can still make him anxious, so patience and consistency will be key in helping him feel safe.

Though he’s been through so much, Trace is ready for a fresh start. He deserves a home where he can finally relax, feel loved, and know he’ll never have to face uncertainty again. Could you be the one to give him that second chance?
