Story

Atticus is a really sweet pet. He is the white dog in the pic and that younger of the two. He likes to cuddle and give kisses. Finley is the Black dog he is about 4 and he is more like the protector. He is friendly also and likes to give kisses and likes to socialize with other doggies. Both are housebroken at my home. They are crate trained when I am working. I am looking to rehome them together because they love each other and I don't want to break that bond. They are up to date on shots and they are groomed every 6wks.

Cesar

Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)

Story

Meet Cesar! Brains? Check. Personality? Double check. Impulse control? …we’re working on it. Cesar is a smart, athletic guy who’s basically the canine version of that kid in class who finished the test early and then started a small fire out of boredom. This boy has smarts AND energy. Cesar believes chew toys are a suggestion, not a rule—why chew one toy when you can chew everything? He’s got a doggy door and uses it like a VIP pass to bring everything outside. And yes, he’s been known to treat the neighborhood like his personal parkour course if the gate isn’t Fort Knox secure. Cesar would thrive with an active, patient human [with a good sense of humor] who can give him structure, exercise, and plenty of mental stimulation!! If you love a dog with spirit and smarts, Poindexter might just be your perfect match!

Size

Story

Gator came to us from a less than desirable situation. He is a blind pup with so much love to give. He is currently in a foster home with big sis Mia. She is a German Shepherd that has shown this sweet puppy the ropes. We are going to require at least one other dog in the household that he can bond with. He loves others dogs. He does not let his disability get in his way at all. Although he’s not the most fond of being crated right now, that’s probably something you could work towards if wanted. He is fully vetted and is started on flea/tick/HW preventative. Gator is a rambunctious puppy that absolutely loves life and loves love. Are you ready to give him a chance?

Story

Meet Thor, a gorgeous young Husky who is bonded with Loki. These pups are navigating a big, overwhelming world right now and still very scared and shutdown, but every day we see small signs of progress and tiny steps forward. We’ll share updates as they continue to adjust and open up. These boys will need a patient, gentle home—or foster—willing to give them the time and reassurance they need to feel safe. They have lost everything except each other so we think it best that they stay together. Interested in helping Loki and Thor? Let us know!

Story

Seven is a 2-year-old, 54-lb cuddlebug with a soft fawn coat and the most beautiful, soft golden-brown eyes. He has the cutest little forehead wrinkles when he sees something interesting! Seven is very affectionate and super friendly —he’d much rather get snuggles than play with toys. He loves curling up beside you or sitting at your feet, looking up with those sweet, heart-melting eyes. Seven is great with other dogs and so eager for human love, he should be easy to train. If you’re looking for a loving sweet boy who just wants to be by your side, Seven is ready to meet you!
