This is all about MOLLY! 💖

Sweet Molly is quite the character. Shelter life is really hard for this gal, who struggles with reactivity but is surrounded by triggers. She is not a dog for the average owner, but we know the right person is out there for her!

🐾 More about Molly 🐾
Estimated age: 4 years
Gender: Female
Size: Medium, 65 pounds
❌ Dog reactive
✅ Ok with teenagers who can manage her
✅ Lived with cats previously
✅ Crate/House trained

Molly is very energetic, enthusiastic, and sociable with people. She likes playing with a ball and learning new things! She is excellent on low-trigger adventures and LOVES to go for long-line walks. She is cuddly, sweet, and desperate for someone to balance managing her triggers with quality of life. 😢

Because of her anxiety, Molly is deeply struggling in the shelter, causing her to struggle to maintain weight. She craves enrichment/stimulation and a person who will make sure she is fulfilled. Our behavior staff has done a lot of work to set this dog up to win. Now we just have to find the right place for her to grow!

✨ She may have her quirks, but the love Molly has to provide is unmatched. Our staff would love to speak with potential fosters about taking this girl on. Apply to adopt or foster at littlevictories.org, or send us a message to learn more about her. ✨

✨ Want to get to know Kacey? Apply to adopt at littlevictories.org OR come meet her from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. through Sunday. She is also a great candidate for a adventure! ✨

Gender: Male

✅ Dog friendly: very amicable interactions

He still has lots of learning and socializing to do, and he is sometimes nervous around loud noises.

Copper is great with other animals and people of all ages, though his energy level can get the best of him sometimes. He needs an active dog family who can keep him fulfilled. When he is not fulfilled, Copper does display some anxious behaviors. With a comittment to training and developing ways to fulfill his needs, Copper is truly going to shine.

This 5-year-old calico girl is always on the lookout for some love and attention. You'll often find her rolling around, eagerly seeking pets from friendly humans or curled up in a cozy hidey-hole. Patch previously lived with other female cats, so she should adjust well in a multi-cat home with a proper introduction.

If you're looking for a loving and friendly companion, Patch is your girl! She would be a wonderful addition to a home with calm, gentle cats and lots of cozy spots to relax.

✨ Come meet Patch and see if she's the perfect match for you! Apply to adopt at littlevictories.org, or walk in from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. today through Sunday. ✨

Get ready for some serious cuteness on your TVs today! Two adorable gals, Venus and Serena, make their debut on WSAZ at 12:30 p.m. as your ! 🐶💕

These sweet sisters, Venus (brown and white) and Serena (brindle), are only 10 weeks old, but they've already been through so much. Found abandoned in a box in a parking lot, they were severely underweight, riddled with worms, and suffering from a terrible skin infection. With a few weeks of love and care, these resilient pups have made an incredible recovery and are now ready for their forever homes!

Both Venus and Serena are as sweet as they come! These smart, playful puppies love toys, have healthy appetites, and are ready to romp, snooze, and grow in the coziness of a loving home. We expect them to be medium-sized adult dogs (but who knows? They might surprise us!).

✨ Ready to embrace the joys of puppyhood? Apply to adopt at littlevictories.org to set up an appointment, or come meet Venus and Serena during our walk-in hours (10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursday through Sunday). ✨

Before applying to adopt, please remember that taking on a puppy is a big commitment, especially one with an unknown background. Our knowledgeable staff is here to help any adopter with all the information and resources needed to help your new puppy grow into the best dog she can be!

✨ Miss Puff has it all! ✨

Some things we love about this 1-year-old girl:

✅ Playful and sweet with other cats with a proper, slow introduction
✅ Loves a deep sleep in a high cat tree
✅ Gorgeous dilute tortoiseshell coat
✅ Affectionate on her terms, but this girl really turns it on!
✅ Spunky hilarious personality!
✅ Lived with other animals (dog and cat) previously

Miss Puff took some time to warm up in the Cat House, but she quickly became one of the sweetest girls we know. With plenty of time to acclimate, she is very brave and approaches familiar faces to look for affection. Miss Puff has never been the only cat in a home, so she would likely prefer to live with others, but a slow introduction would be best. This girl will likely do best with a covered litter box and by slowing integrating her into different parts of the home.

✨ Could Miss Puff be the girl for you? Apply to adopt at littlevictories.org, or come meet her from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursday through Sunday. ✨

Spunky Selia’s time with us is coming to a close.💔

For 13 long years, Selia has spent her days causing mischief at Little Victories, bringing a laugh to every day. But now, our beloved senior girl is slowing down. After a cancer diagnosis last year, we recently learned that it has spread to her lungs.

Selia will live out her final days as our cherished office pup, surrounded by the only family she’s ever known. We’re committed to making every moment as comfortable and full of love as possible. But we need your help to make her last days special.

How can you be there for Selia?

🐾 Volunteer to spend time with her: Selia can’t walk far, and extreme weather is too much for her fragile body. But she still craves companionship. She would love for someone to sit by her side, gently scratching her back.

🚗 Take her for a car ride: One of Selia’s greatest joys is riding in the car, soaking in new smells and enjoying the simple pleasure of a drive. She doesn’t need a long journey, just a little adventure to brighten her final days.

🎁 Bring her special treats or plushy toys: Selia’s eyes still light up at the sight of her favorite snacks, and she loves to dramatically toss around a plushy toy. These small gestures fill her days with a little extra joy.

As we prepare for the inevitable, we’re focused on surrounding Selia with all the love she deserves. When the time comes to say goodbye, she will be surrounded by the people who have loved her longest.

Let’s make the rest of her time as beautiful as she is.

Look at this face and tell us Duncan wouldn’t make you smile every day! He is the sweetest, cuddliest guy we know, and he is looking for someone to snuggle up to at the end of the day. 🐾

Estimated age: 2 years
Size: Medium, 55 lbs
✅ Dog friendly: Our very best tester for new pups!
❌ Cat friendly: No kitties for this cutie
✅ Kid friendly: Better with respectful, older children
❌ House trained: Likely an environmental issue that will quickly vanish in a home
✅ Crate trained

Duncan is very affectionate with those he likes -- and sometimes he likes you immediately! He does need a little time and neutrality to feel comfortable meeting new people, but he will be curious and cuddly in no time. He loves the company of other dogs, and he loves a good play group romp. He is our go-to for determining other dogs' temperaments!

Duncan is young and adaptable, so he will easily thrive, especially with someone willing to be his guide in the world. He has been a superstar on adventures and takes big, loud events in like a pro.

This young dog hasn't seen much beyond kennel walls for more than a year. Can you be the escape he is looking for?

✨ Apply to adopt at littlevictories.org, or come meet Duncan during our weekend walk-in hours (10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursday through Sunday). ✨

While our kittens and their energy boost your serotonin, the senior cats are here to ground you. Cats like Foxy (12 - tortie) and Emma (14 - tuxedo) are just as desperate for a forever home! 💕

These two senior gals are easy-going and lovable. Both can exist with other cats if given plenty of their own space and time to acclimate.

Marshmallow needs a hero.

As he approaches 13 years old, this little trooper is battling kidney disease, dealing with rotten teeth, and has experienced stress-related seizures in the shelter. He’s in desperate need of a hospice foster to spend his golden days in comfort and peace.

About Marshmallow:
🐾 Great with other animals, as long as they give him space.
🐾 Loves short walks and enjoys sniffing around new places.
🐾 Not extremely affectionate, but always wants to be near you.
🐾 His favorite show? Law & Order! 📺
🐾 Loves car rides, the wind in his fur, and peaceful music.
🐾 Favorite spot: A cozy rocking chair.

Though Marshmallow still has a zest for life, the stress of shelter living is taking its toll. He needs out, and he needs it fast. With a prognosis of one to two years, we’re looking for a compassionate foster willing to administer his medications and take him to vet appointments. 🏡❤️

What we provide:
🛠️ All supplies, including wet food and medication
💊 All medical costs covered

If you can offer Marshmallow the loving, peaceful home he needs, please fill out a foster information form at littlevictories.org. This fluffy old guy is counting on us to find his hero. Let’s make his golden years truly golden! 💖

Watch to see Rosalina grow up…. Rosalina has been here since she was a puppy and she is now transitioning into adolescence. The shelter environment is no place for a pup to grow up and she needs a home now! Adoptions have been at an all time low for dogs and we are saddened we have so many great pups available for adoption. Here is more info on Rosalina: Estimated age: 7 months Size: Medium, 30 lbs Gender: Female Time at LV: 4 months ✅ Dog friendly ✅ Kid friendly ❌ House trained ✅ Crate trained What my friends at Little Victories say about me: Rosalina is one special pup! She is smart, listens well, and loves attention from people. She likes to play with toys and does extremely well in a crate. Rosalina is still at a great age that will allow her to adjust very easily to her future home. She loves to crawl in a lap and cuddle, and she has a peaceful, calm side to balance her wild puppy energy. The best kind of home for Rosalina: Rosalina is a young pup, so she will most likely adjust to a new home environment easily. She is moving into adolescence, so she will need a family willing to work with her and teach her how to be the best girl she can be! Puppies require patience, structure, and constant attention to ensure their success in a family. Her best chance is to grow up with a family willing to giver that commitment.
