⭐ THROWBACK THURSDAY ⭐"We just wanted to send a Gotcha day pup-date on Obi :) He is still not convinced that he is a large dog and tries to sleep in places (like under my desk) where he really does not fit, but he makes it work. His favorite past times are sleeping and playing. Our son left for college in August, and Obi definitely misses him, but enjoys face timing. He has really adapted to travelling in our RV, and loves to explore new places. He is a beloved part of our family and we are thankful for him every day." -Obi's Family 🥰

🎉HAPPY GOTCHA DAY SMUCKERS 🎉 A little note from my new mom: "He is doing great! Smuckers AKA “Jax” loves his new home. He enjoys walks, being outside, playing with his neighborhood doggy friends, cuddles, he discovered jumping on the human bed and loves sleeping with us, playing with his toys, and of course yummy treats! We couldn’t be happier with our fur baby! Jax brings such joy to our hearts and is our sweet boy!" We are so so so happy for our boy Smuckers! Cheers to new adventures Jax! 🥰

💙Available for Adoption💙Hellllooooo! I am Mocha! My human friends at PP say I am a ‘Free Spirit’ and that I beat to the rhythm of my own drum. This causes me to be better suited for a family who, doesn’t have small children, because sometimes I forget that I am not the size of a new born puppy. I like to play and sometimes I forget how to play carefully. I don’t mean to I just get so excited! I would also love to have a fenced in yard! I love to go on walks but I also love to run and play! Now that, that is out of the way I feel much better!

Hey there, I'm Bokhee! I'm just a big ol' lovebug at heart. Sure, I'm going through heartworm treatment right now, but that doesn't stop me from wagging my tail and giving sloppy kisses to everyone I meet. I may not be perfect, but who is? I know how to sit like a pro, especially when there are treats involved (yum!). I am ready to spread even more love to my forever family. Can't wait to meet you! 🐾❤️

🌟 Heartfelt Thanks to Our Generous Donors! 🌟

We are incredibly grateful for the support of our amazing donors who made it possible to complete a much-needed upgrade this year—our kennel floors!

As you probably saw earlier this Spring, we had the outside kennel floors done. But we had to wait to do the inside given the complexity of the job, coupled with the logistics of placing our dogs in temporary housing elsewhere. Good news — we were fortunate enough to get the job completed this past week.

Thanks to your generosity, our pups now have a cleaner, safer, and more comfortable space to call home while they await their forever families. Your kindness and commitment to Paws Place Dog Rescue truly make a difference. 🐾❤️

Thank you for being a part of this mission. Together, we’re creating brighter futures, one paw at a time!

💙AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION💙Hi there, I'm Charlotte, and let me tell you a bit about myself from my own perspective! At 33 pounds (do not worry I am working on my summer body), I'm the perfect size for snuggling up on your lap or going for leisurely walks around the neighborhood.
Life hasn't always been easy for me. I have some special needs including incontinence and a bit of neurological history, but don't let that discourage you. I'm a resilient pup with a lot of love to give. My human friends here at Paws Place can provide you with more information about my needs and how you can support me!
Despite my challenges, I'm a friendly and affectionate girl who adores attention. I'll wag my tail endlessly when you give me pets and scratches behind the ears. I do love other dogs/cats however I would prefer to be the only dog in the home.
I may be a bit older, but I still have plenty of love and joy to share with the right family. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will appreciate your company as much as you appreciate theirs, then look no further!
