If you would like the first opportunity to adopt, please fill out an application to be considered. Adoption Fee: $650 Meet the Dynamic Duo of the Puppy Art World – Jackson Pollack & Andy Warhol! (Not actually siblings… just two masterpieces who came in together!) Jackson Pollack and Andy Warhol arrived at the shelter side-by-side, leading us to believe they were brothers. But after a closer look (and a peek at their ages!), we realized they’re more like two artists who met at the same gallery—completely different styles, both works of art! Though they’ve shared their foster home, these pups aren’t looking for a joint exhibit; they’re each ready for their own solo show in separate forever homes. Andy Warhol – The Pop Culture Pup with a Heart of GoldAge: 3 1/2 - 4 months old | Weight: 6 lbs (15-20 lbs full grown) Meet Andy Warhol, the tan Chihuahua whose personality is just as iconic and vibrant as his namesake’s art. Andy is the self-assured leader of this pairing, always ready to make an entrance with a wagging tail and playful spin. Sit on the floor, and you’ll find yourself the center of his playful universe—he’ll circle you, give happy licks, and happily accept belly rubs once he’s had his fill of frolicking. Andy thrives on outdoor adventures, loves chasing balls (though returning them is… let’s call it a “work in progress”), and has a special talent for turning a simple stick into a prized treasure. High-energy and social, Andy barks to say hello but settles quickly. When playtime ends, he’s all about the snuggles, especially if there’s a cozy blanket involved. Andy’s perfect home includes someone ready for puppy antics, outdoor fun, and plenty of cuddle sessions. Jackson Pollack – Abstract Energy in Puppy FormAge: 2.5 months | Weight: 3.5 lbs (10-12 lbs full grown) Like his namesake, Jackson Pollack is a burst of creative chaos, painting his world with energy and curiosity. This tiny black Terrier-Chihuahua mix may be small, but his personality splashes out in every direction. Initially a little shy, Jackson quickly warms up and transforms into a playful explorer. Whether he’s zipping around the yard like a brushstroke in motion, squeezing through tiny spaces, or collecting sticks as if they’re prized sculptures, Jackson brings joy with every move. When he’s not busy creating his next “masterpiece” of mischief, Jackson is a budding cuddle connoisseur—happy to snuggle up after a day of play. He’s working on potty pad training and loves following his people around like an artist seeking inspiration. If you’re looking for a tiny, spunky companion to brighten your canvas of life, Jackson is ready to make his mark! Separate Homes, Equally Loving Hearts:While Jackson and Andy started their journey together, they’re each ready to be the star of their own show. Both puppies adore people (including kids ages 8 and 11) and are looking for homes that can keep up with their playful energy. Whether you’re drawn to Jackson’s curious spirit or Andy’s affectionate leadership, you’ll be adopting a pup ready to fill your days with laughter, love, and plenty of puppy kisses. A Note About Puppies:Puppies are adorable, but they’re also a big commitment! Jackson and Andy are at that fun (and sometimes mischievous) stage where they’re learning about the world. Their future families should be ready for potty training, puppy-proofing, and plenty of supervision. Puppies require patience, consistency, and lots of positive reinforcement to grow into well-mannered adults. Expect early mornings, occasional messes, and the need for frequent playtime and socialization. Puppy-proofing your home (and your favorite socks!) is essential, and chew toys are a must since they’re both in the teething stage. These boys thrive on attention and will do best in homes where someone can spend time with them throughout the day—whether you work from home or can take them along on adventures. In return, you’ll get unconditional love, endless puppy kisses, and a lifelong companion who will fill your home with joy, laughter, and the kind of happiness only a puppy can bring. If you’re ready to invest the time and energy into shaping a young pup into your perfect dog, Jackson Pollack or Andy Warhol is ready to start their next masterpiece—with you!
