Gordita and Empanada are our last two of Maria’s puppies needing homes. They are almost four months old and although we’ve had a lot of interest, we haven’t been able to find committed adopters. These girls are about 5 lbs now (mom was 10lbs) and are vet checked, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. Email us to fill out an application

Henrietta is a tiny sweet chihuahua ready for a new home. She joined our rescue malnourished and extremely underweight but with a little TLC has blossomed. We’re estimating her age to be 3 years old and she weighs just under 5 lbs. She has a gentle, timid personality and just wants someone to love her. Fostered around dogs, cat and kids. She has good house manners and is wonderfully charismatic. We want adopters to be aware that with tiny dogs, there is a bigger responsibility and upkeep to her dental care. She will likely need yearly teeth cleaning to maintain their health and needs an adopter committed to this care. She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and current on heartworm prevention. Email us for adoption information and to fill out an application.

Empanada, Jamaica and Gordita are the last of Maria’s pups that are still available for adoption. These little cuties just turned 12 weeks old and have been raised in a foster home with lots of love and care.

Empanada is adventurous and is usually the one to lead the bunch. She’s confident and loves playing with the squeaky toy.

Jamaica is very sociable and may be small but is very mighty she loves standing up to her two bigger sisters and playing around. But she also will melt in your arms or a nice little bed if you have one next to you.

Gordita is the most bashful of the bunch she likes doing her chichi zooms in the morning. She’s usually just behind empanada when it comes to mischief and enjoys a good squeak toy just like her sister.

They are vet checked, microchipped, dewormed and vaccinated. Email us at [email protected] for adoption info.

This handsome fella is Wolfie, the sweetest, chillest cat you could ever meet. He came to us with a fractured femur after being hit by a car. Surgery to pin the leg went well and he’s now recovering in a foster home. Wolfie is about 8 months old, neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. He is fostered around cats/kids/dogs, loves to cuddle, play and explore. He’ll be looking for a home in a few weeks if anyone needs the perfect new feline in their lives. 🐈‍⬛

Maria’s puppies just turned 8 weeks old and a few are off to there new families but five are still looking for new homes. Last week they had their vet exams, microchips, first vaccines and heartworm prevention. They are healthy, happy puppies and although growing fast, they still seems small weighing just over two pounds each. Just because animals look cute under the Christmas tree doesn’t mean they make good holiday gifts. Adopters should be ready for the commitment that bringing a new puppy home takes.

Kehlani has a rather heart-wrenching story. She was found as a stray, likely the victim of a car accident or an attack by another dog. She came to us with a broken pelvis and several puncture wounds. During admission, Kehlani was scanned for a microchip, and surprisingly, she had one. Unfortunately, no owner has come forward to claim her.

Since her intake, Kehlani has been in a loving foster home where she has made a full recovery. Now, she’s healed and thriving, fond of long strolls, outdoor playtime with her furry friends, and snuggling whenever the opportunity arises. Despite her challenging past, Kehlani has remained an incredibly sweet and affectionate girl. At about 2 years old and weighing only 5 pounds, she is a small Chihuahua with a calm yet playful personality, is almost fully vaccinated, and is on the books to get spayed. Kehlani gets along well with other dogs, cats, and children. Looking for a cuddly companion to pamper? Email us for an adoption application!

***ADOPTED***Looking to add a new addition to the family to cozy up with during the winter months? Meet Halo! This little corgi/border collie mix will be sure to keep you warm and cozy this winter with all his cuddles! This adorable little angel with stubby legs came into the shelter as a stray, quickly capturing everyone’s hearts. As Halo transitioned into his foster home he unfortunately caught a bad case of kennel cough, but with a little bit of TLC and antibiotics, he’s now evolved in his foster home and has become a very well behaved and loving puppy. Halo has now officially been neutered, is almost fully vaccinated, microchipped, and is ready for his fur-ever home! Halo is ~14 weeks old, house-trained, and is a whole 7.8 lb full of love, snuggles, and playtime! Although Halo is very affectionate with humans, he loves to play with his foster companions and is good with other dogs, cats, and children!

🌧️November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month and we have the perfect dog to celebrate it with!

Daniel is healed up and ready to start the second chapter of his life. This delightful 8-year-old dog with a heart as big as his love for leisurely strolls! This sweet senior enjoys rolling in the lawn, naps on the couch with an occasional low impact game of fetch.

Daniel joined us last month with some traumatic injuries but is 💯 recovered. His past is a bit of a mystery, but we know his future will be filled with love, head scratches, and wagging tails. He’s currently living it up in a foster home and can’t wait to meet his forever family.

Daniel has met dozens of other doggie friends and has been a perfect gentleman. He loves about every human he meets but has decided that a cat free home would be best. Ready to make this dapper senior’s golden years the best yet?

Mamma Maria, what a litter. Just over a month ago, this sweet angel showed up as a stray with a BIG belly. When no one came looking for her, we were able to find a safe foster for her to have her babies and raise the new family. She welcomed seven pups, six girls and one boy, who will be looking for homes around Christmas time. Join us as we watch these cuties grow and let us know if you’d like to open your home to a new puppy.
