❤️ Meet DUTCHESS AND SOPHIE!

DUTCHESS (apricot) and SOPHIE (gray) are a sweet mother–daughter duo of Miniature Poodles, ages 6 and 5. These lovely girls have been cherished and well cared for their entire lives, but heartbreakingly found themselves in need of a new home after their owner passed away, with no family or friends able to take them in.

Both DUTCHESS and SOPHIE are truly easy keepers…calm, well-mannered, and a joy to have around. Their vetting is now up to date, and we are hopeful to place them directly into a forever home to minimize any further transitions. If that perfect match doesn’t come along right away, they will move into foster care this weekend. Dog and people friendly!

As Miniature Poodles, they will need ongoing professional grooming to keep them looking and feeling great!

Located in private foster in CT.

⭐️ UPDATE: We’ve been wonderfully overwhelmed by the response for MEATBALL! So many amazing applications have come in...thank you all! Please be patient as we begin by moving forward with one potential adoptive family over this upcoming weekend. If it isn’t the right match, we’ll reach back out to others.

❤️ Meet MEATBALL (aka Mr. Beefy)!

If you have been on the hunt for an incredibly mushy bully who is PERFECT with dogs of all sizes and loves everyone he meets…here he is!

MEATBALL is a super handsome bully, about 3 years old and weighs about 50 lbs.

MEATBALL is yet another example of how amazing this breed is…such a goofy lovebug who is just so grateful to be cared for.

MEATBALL is excellent with other dogs and all people! He has little spurts of playfulness and gets a short case of the zoomies…but he’s not a long distance kind of boy and won’t really be up for extensive walks…he’d rather be chilling out at home.

Perfect dog right here…minus the chronic farting and snoring lol…it just comes with the territory with these short stacks!

⭐️ UPDATE: ADOPTED!

Sometimes we have no idea why some dogs get applications and others get NONE! MYA's name has not popped up on an adoption application yet...not even once! This is extra confusing because she is SO SWEET, SO LOVING and DOESN'T HAVE A MEAN BONE in her body!

MYA'S foster hosted a holiday party and she was EXCELLENT! Everyone was smitten!

❤️ Meet MYA!

More pics/video here: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/17gTFfEmYf/?mibextid=wwXIfr

MYA is an adorable medium sized mix breed girl, about 7 months old and weighs about 40 lbs.

MYA is so torn…naturally she’s such a happy-spirited, toy-loving, playful, affectionate pup. On the other hand, it seems like someone did their very best to try to dim her spirit as she shows signs of sometimes being unsure of your intentions at first... cowering down as if she’s not sure if she will be receiving kindness or pain. It’s pretty heartbreaking, especially for a puppy.

MYA doesn’t have a mean bone in her body! She loves other dogs and toys! We know her true puppy-self will be ready to come out very soon…just will need a little more reassurance than some pups, but the reward will be immeasurable.

MYA is a GREAT snuggler, is quiet and is great in a crate, too!
