Are you looking for a small, sensible adult dog who won't eat your shoes? Sweet and petite Ohana may be the just the girl for you.

This affectionate five-year-old chihuahua loves people, enjoys playing fetch, like cats, and warms up to polite dogs once she decides they're worthy. She also has wonderful house manners and does the cutest little signature hops at dinnertime.

If you think you might be the perfect match, apply today to make Ohana part of your family.

Nika has star power! She strutted into Steve Caporizzo's Pet Connection like a pro, greeted everyone, kissed Steve on cue, and checked her camera angles before showtime.

Submit an application if you'd like to bring this leading lady home. Pet Connection is sponsoring her adoption fee and we're very grateful - thank you, Steve!

It’s so great to help the most senior pets. Meet “Nika”. She is wonderful. Her life has come full circle. I might have had her on Pet Connection 12 years...

Here we have Chance, a handsome two-year-old Suburban Loaferhound. This highly sought-after breed comes in all shapes and sizes and is known for its expert-level lounging skills and spirited backyard shenanigans.

Like all Suburban Loaferhounds, Chance is happiest with a solid mix of play and nap time. He enjoys fun and games with his people and other like-minded dogs and then he's ready to curl up on the couch.

Chance has impeccable house manners, rides nicely in the car, and would be best in a cat-free home with adults and older children who appreciate 72 pounds of goofy enthusiasm.

This dog is the perfect blend of couch potato and playful companion. Interested adopters should submit an application and we'll be in touch.

Who's up for movie night with Rusty? He's a big fan of Marley & Me and secretly loves a good rom-com. And he's happy to share the couch if you pop the popcorn.

Rusty is good company and perfect for snuggling, snacking and binge-watching shows, plus he'll laugh at all of your jokes. If you're looking for a new partner in crime, what are you waiting for? Apply to meet Rusty.

Twyla is always excited to ride in the car for another adventure. As part of her striking good looks, she has a beautiful white blaze on her chest.

Her foster mom thinks the blaze looks like two ghosts holding hands. Her foster dad sees two manta rays. What do you see?

Nika is a very sweet and utterly charming chocolate lab mix. Don't let that pretty sugar face fool you, Nika is young at heart and gets pep in her step and does a silly (and very cute) happy dance when she's excited.

Nika's hobbies include relaxing walks, quality couch time, car rides, and lots of sniffing, snacking and sunbeam napping. She seems to be housetrained and currently lives with two dogs but is too interested in cats to live with them.

If you're looking for a 68-pound piece of chocolate who's past the puppy chaos and firmly in her comfort queen era, Nika may be the dog for you. Apply today and then her team will get in touch with your team.

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's SUPER ASH! He's here just in time for Halloween and is ready to rescue his forever family.

Ash is a 10-year-old Pomeranian mix with the heart of a hero. He and his tiny legs may not leap tall buildings, but he will leap right into your lap and stay there. His superpowers include tail wagging at the speed of light and spreading joy wherever he goes.

Ash is mellow and good with kids, cats and other dogs. He also enjoys car rides and slow, meandering walks. If you're looking for a loyal and loving new family member, apply for Ash before Lex Luthor gets him first.

Just look at that smile! Sacha is a pocket-sized witch who runs on sunshine and happiness. This four-year-old Chihuahua mix is great with kids, cats, and dogs and wants nothing more than to be with her people.

Sacha absolutely loves walks and is potty trained and crate trained (although she prefers to be free). If you're looking for a loving new family member who thinks your presence is the best gift of all, Sacha is ready to cast her spell.

Apply today to meet this joyful little dog.

Happy Monday from Trippy, a fun-sized Cocker Spaniel mix and herding prodigy. This sweet four-year-old people pleaser is looking for a quiet but active home where he can build his trust and confidence.

Trippy is house trained, loves car rides and other dogs, sits on command, and is very food motivated. He's too interested in cats to live with them and would be best in a home without children because he's protective of his toys.

Trippy enjoys applying his herding skills to all moving things with great enthusiasm - people, dogs and even his foster home's lawnmower. If you've ever thought, "What my landscaping equipment needs is a supervisor," Trippy is your guy.

Interested adopters should apply and we'll be in touch.
