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
Shilo is my name. Hebrew in origan, Shilo means “Tranquil or Peaceful One”. Right there says it all!    I ann initially Shy and Timid, due to being a breeder surrender and having little socialization with people.  While in Rescue, I’ve grown in personality, playfulness and trust through new experiences provided by a caring volunteer team.   At a healthy 6 years of age, about 30#, I still have spring in my step and like to play with other dogs. I also am calm, well-mannered and seem to be house trained. Heck, I don’t even bark! I am initially shy, hence the name Shilo, and it will take some patience and TLC for me to adjust to a new home and environment. We Shiba Inu’s were initially breed in Japan for hunting.  Just look at my photo, you see hues of Red, Golden, Orange, Chestnut and White with deep dark eyes. Our size and coloration make us look like a well-fed fox! With this said, a 4 foot fence will be required to adopt me for my safety. So, with all the said Positives about me, guess you can see why it’s a POSITIVE to adopt me.   No puppy stage and still years of love left on me. I’m Shilo, and I’m ready for the next chapter of my life! Are you? To submit an adoption application, visit mollysplacerescue.org.

Story
Are you ready for adventure, to hit the “Back Country”, take it “Down Hill” or just “Free Style” it with a new best friend? Well, let me tell you, I’m Aspen and I’m the one to help you get those “Snowy Vibes”! Your not going to “Wipe Out” if you adopt me. Though a mere 15# and 9 months, I’ll make “First Tracks” on our walks. I’m no “Novice” when it comes to walking on leash. I’m also potty trained, keeping a clean “Training Camp”. But I'm only 1/2 a team. My bro Yukon, 20#, and I have not been seperated since birth. Together we are a "Full Team" and would LOVE to be adopted TOGETHER. I must admit, he is a COOL dude. We were surrendered with “No Dedications” or cause on our part. Together you would have “35” pound of loving, playful and the most “People Pleasing Pooches” Ever! Being Shinu Inu, we do have a fuzzy red/golden/orange/chestnut & white coat that resembles a Fox, so a 4 ft fence is required so we don’t “Drift” away and get shot for a fox. We are both VERY OUTGOING after initial shyness is over. We are great with other dogs and people of all ages, young or old. After a day of play, we are ready to “Wipe Out” on your “Lap”. So come on bring in the fun and festivities. I’m Aspen, your kind of “Snow Bunny” who will “Fall like Fresh Snow” onto your heart. Aspen - smaller, girl, 15# Yukon - larger, boy, 20# We’re spayed/neutered and ready for homes.

Story
Yukon Canada is considered the BEST region in Canada for outdoor fun and adventure. Well, I’m YUKON of Pennsylvania and considered the BEST little Shinu Inu for snuggling, hugging and just having a good time! I’m an outdoor/indoor fun loving 20#, 9 month little boy that loves adventure then ready to sack it in for the night. Friendly, well let me tell you. I just love other dogs and people “Of All Ages”. Shy at first meet with 2-leggeds, once warmed up I’m as good as “YUKON Gold”! I walk on a leash, am kennel, crate and “House” Trained. Yes, I keep a clean “Tundra”! My sister, Aspen, is also looking for a loving home. We have never been separated and hope to remain together for life. I must admit, she is a CUTIE PIE, for a girl. We were surrendered for no fault of ours. Aspen weighs a petite 15#, so together you would have “35” pound of most loving, playful and “People Pleasing Pooches” Ever! Being Shinu Inu, we do have a fuzzy red/golden/orange/chestnut & white coat that resembles a Fox, so a 4 ft fence is required so we don’t amber off into the great outdoors and get shot for a fox. Want to “Light up Your Life” like the Aurora Borealis? I’m Yukon, a little boy with a HUGE personality who is looking for love.
