Bambee is a female 1 yr old (born around 8/2024) female chihuahua mix, our best guess is a chi/doxie "chiweenie". Bambee is a sweet little 8.5 lb girl with the cutest ears. She loves to sit close and cuddle and be her person's little shadow. She is submissive and gentle, she likes playing with other dogs and snuggling. Bambee would do best in a quieter home, although she does warm up and bonds quickly, she is scared of new people at first. She loves shoes (especially shoe laces) and laundry and sleeps well through the night in her little bed.

Cleo is a 4 year old (born 7/2021) little frenchie who has had a rough time in her previous home. Actually we were told she has been passed around a few family members, got out a few times and was picked up as a stray. The last time she got out the good samaritan who found her put us in touch with her owner and they were happy to surrender her as they have not been able to keep up with her needs and were considering euthanasia. Cleo has battled ear infections for years and had mass in one of her ears that was obstructing the ear, ulcerated and bleeding. She also needed to be spayed and have a mammary mass removed. Cleo was a trooper for all of her surgeries and is doing so well! Her biopsies came back as benign and while her ear infections will likely need permanent monitoring, its not that uncommon for frenchies. She is a tiny 17 lbs, wiggle, fun, social and loves attention and snacks. She will be an amazing dog for a lucky family. Cleo is ok with other dogs and seems to be good in the house.

Shakira is a female 3 year old chihuahua mix, a super graceful 12.5 lb pup on long legs. Shakira has the personality of a big dog in a small package, she is confident, good on the leash, loves to walk and play fetch. Shakira loves making friends and does so easily, she jumps on laps, takes treats and is the life of the party. She is pretty housetrained, although we never promise 100% and has good manners. She is a bossy little girl inside her home, so would like to be an only dog or in a home with a passive dog (preferrably a male).

Sage is a female lab mix puppy born around 7/2025. To us she looks like a straight haired labradoodle, she has some terrier like hair on a yellow lab body with big feet and the sweetest face. Sage is 32 lbs at around 4 months old, so we believe she will mature in the 50-65 lb range. She is pretty calm for a puppy and so gentle, loves attention and being close to people and is so willing to learn and love. Sage will need a home willing to do some puppy training, walks and lots of snuggles and she will grow up into an amazing dog.

Please read the dog's entire bio before you apply. Sadly, we are no longer able to respond to every application, but if your application appears to be a good match for the dog we will reach out within 3 days. Nanuk is a one year old Labrador Retriever (or a very close mix) with a gorgeous creamy coat and a heart full of love. He is the perfect mix of sweet, silly and playful - the kind of a dog who will make you laugh every day with his goofy personality and a big happy smile. He loves toys, treats and other dogs, in any order at all and with equal enthusiasm. This handsome boy had a rough start. He was found with another pup who was sadly very sick with parvo and was euthanized at intake in the county shelter. Nanuk was quarantined at the shelter and during his quarantine he caught kennel cough. Sadly sick pups do not have much of a chance at getting out of the shelter, so we took him in to give him a chance to heal and find his forever home. Now 3 weeks later, he is happy and healthy and ready to embrace all the good things life has to offer. This little boy is only 55 lbs so he is on the smaller, more manageable side. He will need a home ready to train and exercise as labs stay very puppy like till at least 2 years of age, but he is so sweet, submissive with other dogs and loves to play.

Kira is a female German Shepherd pup born 4/19/25, she is about 40 lbs at 6 months, so she wont get very big. Kira is social and fun and loves to play. She has lots of energy and would love a home that would like to do lots of training and exercise. She does well in doggy daycare and enjoys playtime. Kira loves treats, attention and love. She is probably too big for small children as she does not know her own size, so bigger kids would be best for this pup. She knows how to sit and is so ready to learn much more.

Bayla is a female poodle mix born around 12/2016. Her foster parents did a DNA test on her and she is actually 33% poodle with some chihuahua, min pin, corgi and tibetan terrier.
