Story
Ace is a sweet and lovable 8-year-old boy with a natural flair for leadership and protection. He adores kids and thrives in a solo-dog environment—unless he’s sharing a home with his brother, King, from the same litter. While Ace has a fondness for all his toys, the tug-of-war rope holds a special place in his heart, as he relishes active and engaging playtime. Ace’s adventurous spirit makes him an avid walker and neighborhood explorer. Whether you’re striving for 10,000 steps a day or simply looking to be more active, Ace is the perfect companion to keep you motivated. Rain, shine, or snow, he’s ready to be by your side, indoors or out. Ace experiences mild seasonal allergies that can lead to a bit more shedding and, occasionally, ear infections as the temperatures shift. These minor sensitivities don’t hold him back from being the loyal and spirited companion you’ll cherish through every season.

Story
King is an adorable and sweet 8-year-old boy with a passion for cuddles—he’s a true connoisseur of affection! His love language is physical touch, and belly rubs are his absolute favorite. While his enthusiasm and boundless affection may sometimes overwhelm small children, his charm is hard to resist. Another sure way to win King’s heart is through a game of fetch. With endless energy and impressive agility, he’s a pro at chasing down and retrieving tennis balls, all while helping you close your fitness rings and crush your workout goals. King thrives on outdoor adventures and daily walks, proving to be the ultimate companion for meeting your step count. His vet consistently gives him a clean bill of health, so you can count on a robust and spirited buddy. King’s acute awareness and responsiveness to sounds ensure that you’re always prepared for any visitors—invited or not. However, be mindful of his sensitivity to sudden loud noises, such as fireworks, as they can startle him.

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Story
Auggie is a lovely little Whoodle who brings so much joy to everyone he meets. We adopted him in June 2024, and he’s now around 11months old. Unfortunately, our older dog hasn’t accepted him and after a lot of thought, it breaks our hearts but we’re considering rehoming him to ensure he has the happy and fun life he deserves. Auggie is incredibly sweet and affectionate, but he’s also very high-energy. He loves to play, run, and cuddle, so he’d do best in a home with plenty of activity, whether that’s with other friendly dogs or a family that can keep up with him. He’s still young and learning, but because of his energy, he does have some mild behavioral quirks. He LOVES to steal socks and play with toys . He’s not destructive, but he needs supervision and engagement to keep him busy. We think he mainly craves attention, especially since our older dog isn’t interested in playing with him, so a home where he can get lots of interaction and stimulation would be ideal!
