My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

ELLIE & JAXSON ❤️💚 A sweet 8-year-old pair whose owner passed away is looking for their together-forever family. Some good friends of the owner (who cannot keep the dogs) took them in to help, with hopes of finding them a home. They have reached out for help.
Ellie is about 25 pounds and Jaxson is 45 pounds. They are both sturdy low riders 😃 and somewhat long for their height, looking exceptionally cute as they run through the yard. Both are great with people and would like family members who are patient and like to snuggle.
These two love to cuddle together, romp and play together, and sleep together -- they are truly best friends.
Jaxson is a bit timid and whimpers at new things in his life, and he looks to Ellie for his confidence and reassurance. His new family should have a little patience to help him feel comfortable as he encounters new situations and sounds in his life. Due to this, probably no little kids who move fast and make startling sounds that will scare him. He wants to live a playful yet relaxed life with you and his BFF.
These pups know their basic commands, sit and stay, but the temporary keepers say .. they're not the brightest, so don't be looking to teach them tricks 😃 They are just happy goofy fun-loving, gentle, affectionate dogs who want to be loved and kept safe.

More about this rescue

We are a small foster-based group who helps owners who can no longer care for their dogs, or if someone passes and there is no family to take the dog, we can place the dog in a foster home, vet the dog, and then after personality assessment, will make the dog available for adoption.

Also, based on foster availability, we take in stray dogs and diligently look for owners. We have a good track record for reuniting pets with their families, but in the cases where no owner surfaces, we vet the dogs and prepare them for adoption, all while they are in a safe and loving foster home.
