Story
Meet Radar—because personal space is just a suggestion. 📡🐾 This handsome shepherd mix puppy is equal parts chaos and charm. Radar is rowdy in the best way—think zoomies at full speed, surprise kisses, and the occasional “I meant to do that” moment. He’s spunky, playful, and always ready to turn literally anything into a game (yes, even your shoelaces). Radar’s favorite hobby? Being exactly where you are… and then a little closer. Bathroom trip? He’s there. Snack break? Quality control supervisor. Sitting down for two seconds? Perfect, he’ll just climb into your lap like he weighs 10 pounds forever. And when he’s not shadowing his humans, Radar is busy living his best life with his puppy crew. He loves playing with his doggy friends—chasing, wrestling, and showing off his signature zoomies like it’s an Olympic sport. If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick who will keep you laughing, keep you moving, and never let you go to the bathroom alone again—Radar is your guy. 🐶💙

Story
Meet Easton — your future fluffy best friend with the cutest little nub tail you’ve ever seen 🐾 This adorable Aussie mix is equal parts shy sweetheart and total cuddle bug. Easton might take a minute to warm up, but once he does? Get ready for full-time love, loyalty, and a whole lot of belly-up requests. His favorite hobbies include soaking up belly rubs, snuggling close to his humans, and being irresistibly fluffy. Easton is a big fan of other dogs and would absolutely thrive with a canine buddy to help show him the ropes and keep the playtime going. A confident dog friend + a loving home = Easton living his very best life. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate pup with a soft coat and an even softer heart, Easton is ready to wiggle his little nub tail right into your home 🧡

Story
Hi! Im Wiggles, and I might be small, but I have a huge heart! Im a sweet little guy who loves to pounce on my toys and zoom around until Im ready for a long nap in your lap. Im a total social butterfly and my tail never stops wagging when I see a friendly face. Im looking for a family who doesn't mind a tiny shadow following them around and someone who gives the best belly rubs. Could that be you?"
