Story
ZZadie is a very sweet and cute female mixed breed dog. She is 2.5 years old and weighs ~65 lbs. Zadie was born on March 4, 2022. She can get spooked easily and can be aggressive with other dogs. Zadie would be best in a home as an only dog. She is house trained and can sit, shake, lay down, and is good with recall. She is young so still has some puppy enthusiasm but also just loves to cuddle. She loves walks and hikes and would be a great family addition. I would not recommend Zadie if you have cats at home as she can have a strong prey drive. Zadie has not had much experience around young kids but has done fine with older kids. She was adopted from the Santa Fe Animal Shelter in Santa Fe, NM. I had a doggy DNA test done on Zadie and she has several different breeds in her. Happy to provide more info if interested.

Story
Rustyn was adopted from a foster home in November of 2020. He was a home with many big dogs and did just great, although he was very timid. He was brought to a shelter earlier that year when a hoarding situation was discovered. He came to live with my chihuahuas and since, I have discovered he is not of the right temperament to be with smaller dogs. He is approximately 9 lbs., so he is small too. He does have some minor resource guarding tendencies. Primarily, he can have jealousy over his selected human, but it is not consistent with his tell-offs or when he is triggered. He would do great as an only dog with someone that can let him explore the yard or take him on adventurous walks. He is a big cuddler who loves to sleep under the covers in his human's bed. Everyone that has met him thinks he is just wonderful! He has done well with teenagers, adults and seniors. I have not seen him around younger children or cats. He is a terrier, so he can become focused, but he is not barky.
