Story
Hey there, I’m Gus, a little guy with a short, to the point name that means “Exalted” or “Great One”! Though my name seams simple, it’s thought to be a PERFECT name for a “little Royal in your life”. It’s sweet yet the embodiment of power and royalty. Yep, that’s me, a GREAT little boy, short in stature weighing in at only 35# or so just 3 years old. Taken in by Molly’s Place, my bro Sly and I have been waiting for a chance for our furever home. Mom came in with us. Said to be a sharp looking possibly PURE Basenji she has already gotten a home. Dad, well, mom never said, but he had to have been a hansom dude cause this apple didn’t fall far from the tree. I’m really have a handsome pooch if I do say so myself. Decked out in a Glistening Brindle fur mix of browns, chestnut and black, my coat is short, face ever so sweet, cute tipped ears, set off by my soulful golden eyes.   Although initially shy, I do warm up and known to be great with adults and other doggies. Fast moving children scare me so best if no children in my home. Once settled in and confident, I’ll bring SUNSHINE into your life with my playful charm and goofy character. Although I’m NOT a wild child, I do need some exercise and a 4 foot fence would suit my just fine giving me initial boundaries. If you have it in your heart to reach out to a little boy that only needs a chance to prove what love is, get going, fill out an application and come meet up with me. You will not regret it!  Gus, is waiting for his new life to begin! To submit an adoption application, visit mollysplacerescue.org.

Story
Sly’s my name and having fun is my game! Sly, short for Sylvester, is a sweet and a bit “Cheeky boy’s name given for a “ONE-OF-A-Kind” MUNCHKIN! Need I say more? NOT…… At just 3 years of age, weighing about 35# my silky soft short coat of Chocolate Brown,  White Crest and “4” white socks! Got the picture? PERSONALTY FROM TIP OF MY TAIL TO THE STRIP UP MY NOSE! My ears are tipped, eyes “Golden/Brown” that show I’m a “Soft Soul”. Taken in by Molly’s Place, my bro Gus and I have been waiting for a chance for our furever home. Mom came in with us and was for sure a sharp looking possibly PURE Basenji. Fortunately, she has already gotten a home. Dad, well, mom never said, but he had to have been a hansom dude as well. Yep, good looks run in the family!   Although initially shy, I do warm up and known to be great with adults and other doggies. Fast moving children scare me so best if no children in my home. Once settled in and confident, my fun loving yet gentle demeanor shines though. I do need some exercise and a 4 foot fence would suit my just fine giving me initial boundaries and safety. I could be a single kind a guy or another dogs best buddy! No problem. If you have it in your heart to reach out to a little boy that only needs a chance to prove what love is, get going, fill out an application, lets meet. I'm eager to please with so much love to give.

Story
Lucas was purchased as a newborn in 2012. He is pure bred and has won a couple of awards in dog competitions. We enjoyed Lucas (Luke) for 14 years and now he is 95% blind. My children are all moved out and with just my wife and I here, Lucas no longer gets the attention he deserves. He seems sad because we travel and must have a dog sitter stay at the home while we travel because we dont feel comfortable sending him to a kennel. He used to go to kennel all the time when we travel, but no that he is blind we feel it is not a good place. Nonetheless, he must stay here at home. I walk him every day and when I travel the sitter walks him. You must have routine with him, and that I can no longer promise. His days are filled sleeping, but he loves being cuddled. However, I do not have time to give any more. That is the reason we are looking for someone to adopt him who has the time to care for him. He is very low maintenance, does not bark, and pretty much acts like a cat..
