Story
Jack is a sweet, loving, tiny chihuahua mix. I adopted him 7 years ago from the animal shelter. He is super friendly, cuddly, (will sleep next to you under the covers) and especially loves men! He was attacked by a big dog a few years ago and doesn't do well on leash when other dogs are around, but is fine with dogs he knows. Due to health issues, I need to rehome Jack.

Story
I got Milo when he was a puppy from the humane society in 2020. He is 4 years old and just recently got boosted on all his shots. We are looking for someone who will show him as much love and attention as possible. He is shy at first but once he knows you he is a really sweet dog. He’s not energetic and loves to cuddle and be around people. He gets along with smaller dogs but not with larger dogs.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Bonded Pair - ChipHoney is an approximately 1.5 year-old, 18 pound best of all breeds, AKA a mutt. Sweet Honey was found in a field with a group of 6 pups, including her friend, Chip.  Honey is an extraordinarily sweet dog. She is so affectionate, she seeks out physical contact as much as possible, preferably on your lap or chest. When she’s feeling playful, she loves to play fetch or play with squeaky toys. When it comes to any activity, she follows Chip's lead. Otherwise, she’s cuddled up with her humans. Honey came to SVPP very shut down, but once we placed her with Chip, she followed his lead and started to relax and trust. Ideally, she will be adopted with Chip. His presence and example of curiosity allows her to feel safe and be curious too. If he’s not around, she hides and can be timid. Under our veterinarian's guidance, Honey started anti-anxiety medication a few months ago and it has helped her tremendously. Adopter will need to continue this medication and work with their veterinary partner to monitor Honey's medication needs. Unexpected movements and loud noises may scare them, so she and Chip would do best in a home with no young children or other dogs unless well monitored.  Do you have the time and patience to help them continue to learn what it feels like to be safe, relaxed and loved? Please fill out an application today! Prior to adoption, all dogs are spayed/neutered, tested for heartworm, vaccinated (including rabies, if age appropriate) and microchipped.   Adoption fees for dogs: http://www.svpetproject.org/info/adoption Stay up-to-date on what our dogs are up to by following us on Facebook!  https://www.facebook.com/svpetprojectVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 1, 2024, 9:48 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Bonded Pair - HoneyChip is a 9 pound, 2 year old Chihuahua with a big personality. This tiny boy was found in a field with a group of 6 dogs, including his friend, Honey, who is being fostered with him. He is a goofy, silly boy who constantly makes his foster family laugh. In addition to being exceptionally handsome, Chip is very intelligent and is quick to learn new skills.  Once he feels comfortable, he is so affectionate. He loves cuddles and scritches and will lick your face clean if you let him. He is also a little instigator, his family jokingly calls him Dennis the Menace. When asked how it is having Chip as a foster pup, his foster mom replied, "I can’t say enough about how fun it is to have him around!" Honey and Chip are very close and help each other to be brave, so we are hoping to place them together. They love to lay in the sun and lounge around in their foster Mom's office when she is working from home. Unexpected movements and loud noises may scare them, so they would do best in a home with no young children or other dogs unless well monitored.  Prior to adoption, all dogs are spayed/neutered, tested for heartworm, vaccinated (including rabies, if age appropriate) and microchipped.   Adoption fees for dogs: http://www.svpetproject.org/info/adoption Stay up-to-date on what our dogs are up to by following us on Facebook!  https://www.facebook.com/svpetproject Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 1, 2024, 9:48 pm

Story
HI friends, my name is Dallas and I am in search of a forever home. I am a shy little guy who needs time and space to warm up to new people. Once I warm up I will ask for pets and will sit in your lap. I am required to be only dog in home as I prefer to be the only king of the castle. I am a low key guy and would do best in a quiet, adult only home with options to go in back yard for some sunbathing and an occasional walk around a quiet neighborhood. If you are looking for a loyal cuddle bug, ask to meet me.Schedule Appointment Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: White Weight: 7.12 Age: 8yrs 1mths 1wks

Hi, I'm Molly. I am a sweet girl looking for a loving home. I can be little shy with new people and will let them know when I'm scared but if people give me some time and space, I warm up and will seek affection. I get along with dogs my size and smaller but would do ok as an only dog in home. If you have a space in your home and your heart for a canine companion, I may be your girl.

Jack is eager to learn and is currently in a board-and-train program. He is crate and potty-trained. He is currently learning basic manners, commands, and socializing while living with a trainer in a home with her two dogs and a cat. Jack has had a difficult and challenging journey. He was surrendered to Every Pet's Dream Rescue in great pain. His backstory is unknown. Our vets did everything they could to help him, but unfortunately, after his first surgery failed, his back leg had to be amputated. Jack can be vocal at times when startled and was most likely not socialized as a puppy. He is currently working on these fears. While at the rescue, Jack learned to adapt as an amputee, his new living situation with several other dogs and a cat. While here, he became besties with two little rescue dogs. Jack is energetic, likes to play with little dogs, loves to play fetch, go for short walks, and settle in on the couch for a cuddle or snuggle. Jack loves the simple things in life, like belly rubs, ear scratches, lots of stuffed toys, and people. Jack would do best as an only dog or a home with a small, playful dog. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Jack is a sweet, loyal, and loving companion. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Jack is searching for a foster home or foster-to-adopt when he graduates from training at the end of the year. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 If you're looking for a new best friend, Jack might be the dog for you! Please spread the word, and let's find Jack his forever home!   For adoption consideration or to meet our dogs , please complete our online application:   www.everypetsdream.org/adopt , and  we will have everything we need to know to call you back and set up an appointment.  Follow us:  Facebook  and  Instagram    September 30, 2024, 12:21 am

Story
Leia is a friendly, full-of-personality dog who loves attention and loves to explore. Energy Level?  Medium/Low House trained?  Yes, mostly Describe how they are on leash?  Leia is mostly fantastic on a leash--she can bark at other dogs, and prefers a sniff walk (i.e very slow exploration) over a walk for exercise. Describe how they are with other dogs?  She needs to take a bit of time to relax around new dogs. She is a bit bossy and would not do well with dogs that will not back off if she needs space. Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they?  She does not appear to have been around cats too much. Commands they know?  Sit What are their favorite things?  Leia loves attention. She loves her sniff walks and cuddling up on the couch with a person. What do they need to work on?  Leia would benefit from more basic training (like come, stay, etc.). She can also be overly anxious when meeting new dogs. In addition, she can resource-guard her toys (or anything she deems as hers, like a stray sock or one of her jackets or blankets). How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone?  She can be anxious when left alone, even with other dogs. She might whine for a bit and scratch the door. I have left her alone for 6 to 7 hours at a time so far. Where do they sleep?  She sleeps in a dog bed or a crate. What is their ideal home?  Leia's perfect home would be where she gets a lot of attention (or at least can be close to her human when they are home). She loves going for slow sniff walks every day or a few times a day. She is delightful and loving but likes being the boss with other dogs. Her ideal home would not have dogs who are too 'in her face', but she does get along well with calm dogs after a proper slow introduction. September 30, 2024, 12:21 am

Our sweet girl  "Millie"  had double cherry-eye surgery recently and is doing great.   Milkshake is very sweet and cuddly and enjoys a lot of physical contact. she is very friendly and happy. She is also learning to play and becoming more playful by the day- enjoys toys, play fighting with our dog, and zoomies around the house with our dog. Millie is confident- not fearful so far and sets boundaries well with other dogs. Energy Level?  Medium House trained?  In process Describe how they are on a leash. Very good Describe how they are with other dogs?  Social, communicates well Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they?  She hasn't been around cats, ignores guinea pigs Commands they know?  “Go peepee” comes when her name called What are their favorite things?  Snuggles, burrowing in laundry, sitting in the sunshine What do they need to work on?  House training, basic commands, crate training How are they when left alone?    How long have they been left alone?  So far, she doesn’t love the crate, left in the crate for 1-2 hours. Where do they sleep?  In our bed or a crate What is their ideal home?  A calm, predictable home. She likes teens who are quiet, gentle, and respectful. She likes her two dog friends but primarily needs humans to bond with. Someone who is often home (retired?) would be good for her. She would do well around calm, respectful kids.  September 30, 2024, 12:21 am
