19 week old Olivia is such a sweet playful little love bug! We’re working on potty training and she’s pretty good at it thus far but it is still a work in progress. She uses the doggie door most of the time but will also go on a piddle pad if she’s having too much fun and can’t quite make it outside in time. She’s not thrilled about being kenneled at night and will let you know! Especially if you sleep in past 0500! She does the cutest thing when she eats…she wags her tail the entire time and then gives me a kiss immediately after. She can be a little food protective at times with her foster siblings but is learning that she has her own bowl and I won’t let anyone else eat out of it. She does sometimes share her food now that she knows she’ll have enough to eat. This baby has warmed my heart!!

Hello! My name is Ezekielle (ZEKE) - I'm 6 weeks old now, and will be ready to go to my Furever Home with my forever Family soon. I am a beautiful, healthy little man that loves to be cuddled! Don't you just love my bright blue eyes? I'm eating puppy mush and formula out of my big boy dish now - no more bottle baby! Playing with my two Sisters, Izabelle and Clarabelle is my favorite thing to do. I especially love my squeaky furry animals and rope toys.

I do enjoy cuddle time with Foster Mom, but I'm really look forward to having my very own Furever Home. Looking for a Furever Family that will love me and I'll love you right back ! Now please send in an Adoption Application for me! I promise I will love you furever! XXOO

Beyoncé is the perfect playful little girl! She loves wrestling with her foster brother her own size but isn’t a fan of dogs bigger than her. She has that Queen B energy! Since she’s come into our house she’s made herself right at home! She loves to sleep right next to us. When we’re sitting or laying on the bed she loves to perch like a parrot on our shoulders. Beyoncé wasn’t sure about her foster cat siblings but now she loves to try to play with them too! She has two foster human siblings and probably loves them more than anyone else. She would do best in a home with a fur friend to get in her daily doggy wrestle.

Meet Callie! This CUDDLEBUG is a young smart and playful girl! She was an owner surrender and unfortunately has been bounced around too much in her short 1 year life. She needs a family who will love her unconditionally the way she loves them. She loves to lay on the couch with her people and watch tv. She's quiet unless she wants attention then she'll try to talk. Lol! Callie likes playing with other dogs but takes a few days to warm up to them first. She could probably do well being the only dog in the home as well. She tends to prefer smaller female dogs to play with. Large male dogs scare her a bit. Callie is so smart. She knows how to sit and shake with both paws! We're sure she could learn how to do a lot more! She is: • house trained • sleeps in her kennel all night • minimal shedding • loves toys and playing fetch • rides well in cars • perfect medium size. 😊

Jax is a 100lb cuddle bug who loves to play and quickly learns tricks. So far he knows sit, wait, heel, center, paw, spin, go home (crate) and down. Most of all, he’ll do anything for treats, especially cheese, watermelon, and yogurt. 😉

He is very gentle when it comes to playing and does not demonstrate biting behavior. Has high energy levels and despite being gentle, he loves horse play. He is good on walks with some mild tugging, but can listen to commands as well as leash pressure. He is a very patient and a dedicated companion to those he trusts. Please share to help Jax find his forever home!

1 year old Brittany is one of the most confident puppies ever! She established herself with the other fosters right away and found her protector and her friends. This girl is something else! At 6 weeks old she joined in on a game of tug a war with the big dogs and they just moved over and let her. She is crate trained, although would prefer to be left to roam. Brittany is house broken, although she objects to getting her precious feet wet when it rains. She is leash trained. She is simply an amazing little girl who will bring years of companionship to a loving family.

Brittany is an active girl and not necessarily appropriate for active small children. She will make the right active family a wonderful companion. As she has added joy to her foster family.

Are you looking for someone that has great energy and will always bring a smile to your face?!?! Then stop scrolling and look at the beautiful pictures of me!

My name is Nikita and I love playing in the kiddy pool my fosters have for me. I play very well with other dogs and get along with everyone. I also love spending time outside sun bathing if the weather is nice. Once I've played enough I will go inside the nice A/C and knockout like no other. So we can take nap time together! We can also just vibe and watch tv on the couch as you scratch my belly.There's also no need to worry about potty training me because I have already done that all by myself.

I would l be a great addition to any loving and caring family and a perfect companion for anyone I do get a little car sick but that's only one downside to a million of beautiful things about her!

My sweet eyes will make sure that you never stop petting me and hugging me.

I also love running around in the backyard rolling in grass and soaking up the sun on nice days out. I'm the perfect companion for everyone and anyone!

Gryffin is my name! Yes I am just this happy and silly. I am a shy little munchkin. I love to cuddle and will need another small dog in the house for me to be happy. I am a sweet boy. I love to play in the yard (must have a fenced yard) with the other fur kids. Mom has lots of trees and plants and we play tag all day long. I love to lay on our pillow in the sun. Mom works in the yard a lot so we are always watched when we are outside. We have a doggie door so along with the big dogs can come and go as we need to.

I was found with my litter mates in a box next to a dumpster. Who would do that to us? We were saved and given all the love and care a scruffy guy could ever need. And now I am ready to find my forever home! No small children. If you are interested in meeting me please apply! I am only doing private meetings.

Gracie has super powers! She can climb moving objects at her convenience! Gracie loves to cuddle and play. She loves running in the yard with the other fur kids. Foster Mom has lots of trees and obstacles in the yard and can play tag all day long. Her favorite thing is to be on high places. She will climb on the back of one of her foster siblings so she can reach what she wants to see. They don't seem to mind.

Her perfect family will be one where her brother Gryffin and I will be together to live out their lives. They play and sleep and need each other - even if sometimes they play fight they love each other completely.

She will need a fenced yard to play in because she loves to run. If you are interested in meeting me please apply! I am only doing private meetings.

No Fosters = No Rescue. 🥺

Today alone, we have had to respond to over a dozen emails requesting help. We love what we do! But, we cannot do it without fosters stepping up. Fostering is the backbone of rescue! Without people to open their hearts and homes temporarily for a dog in need, we can't get them to forever homes.

Please, look in your heart and consider fostering!

Fritz is the sweetest dog ever! He just wants to love you and be loved by you, a complete love bug! We’re working on manners and he is easily trainable as he just wants your approval and love…treats help!

His favorite toy right now is empty toilet paper rolls…silly, funny Fritz! He tosses it up in the air and then takes the “play with me” stance as he tries to play with it as if it were a dog. Fritz would LOVE a playful playmate! He loves to “play” with the dog that lives behind us. They talk a lot (bark)! They run up and down the fence trying to play! He is also vocal (barks) when it’s treat time. Fritz is a pro with the doggie door! It’s turned off for eight hours at night and not a single accident. He is a little skittish with unfamiliar sounds, smells, foods and large groups of people. Fritz will come for a drive by on the bed at night but prefers to sleep on his doggie bed in the bedroom. Fritz shows no aggression towards other dogs and is submissive with everyone. Fritz is a chill, gentle and wonderful boy.

My name is Arlo. I’m 4 years old, intelligent, funny, charming, lovable, extremely energetic and very handsome. 😃 I need lots of attention and a job to do. I hate being left alone for long periods. And I must have lots of cuddle time. I enjoy doing fun activities and learning.

True to my breed I also like to herd my sisters. I’m the perfect cuddle buddy and I like to watch TV with my human. I really like shows with animals especially other dogs. I can jump almost 6 feet into the air so I need a minimum 6 ft fence when I play outdoors. I like most adults. But small kids make me very uncomfortable. I move hard and fast and don’t realize my own strength. I like other dogs but I can be protective of my food and toys. I prefer to be around female dogs. And I don’t like dominant pushy dogs. I would be an awesome therapy dog or something cool like that. I can run fast and jump high so I would also be awesome at agility. I need a parent who can recognize and appreciate my amazing abilities and will continue to bring out the best in me. Is that you?

Katie is ready for her forever home. Loyal loving and obedient. She knows place, sit, let's go and here. She is crate trained and leash trained as well.

Katie has great recall and will return immediately. Katie is the smartest working girl ever. Katie runs with the pack (or more accurately runs the pack) she is definitely an alpha personality. She is German Shepherd and Cattle Dog. Two working breeds that need a job and a lot of stimulus. She goes non stop and keeps everyone on their toes. She will be a great running companion.She is a talker and has a lot to say.Smart! She figured out the doggie door weeks before I would have approved but there is no stopping her when she sets her mind to learning something.She sits for treats. Not because she was trained to but because she watched the pack and learned.

She is an exceptional dog. She requires an active home. Because of her intelligence she will become bored and then destructive which will not make anyone happy. Katie is a pleaser and learns very quickly.Her perfect home will be older children an active family and definitely a yard. Katie will do best with a companion dog in the family. She is not an apartment or mobil home appropriate. If you can provide Katie with the stimulous and love that she will require she will be an awesome family member!
