Story
Hi, I'm Seri! I'm a puppy full of energy and curiosity. Every day is a new adventure! I love to play and explore, sniffing out all the hidden secrets in my surroundings. I'm smart too, usually getting myself into mischief. But, I have a goofy side as well, I like to prance around the house with a toy in my mouth. Sometimes, I get a little stubborn, but that's just because I'm so passionate about life! I'm looking for a family that can match my energy and zest for life. I adore other dogs, I’m trying to figure out what the cat’s deal is, and I think little kids are great! I’m working on potty training, but it’s a work in progress. With me, every day will be filled with laughter, play, and endless affection. Adopt me and let's start our adventure together!

Story
✨ A little about me: 🐾 I’m affectionate and friendly—I haven’t met a dog or human I didn’t like! 🐾 I love playing fetch, tug of war, car rides, outdoor adventures, and snuggling up with my humans. 🐾 I’m food-motivated, potty-trained, and crate-trained (though I might chat a little if I know you’re nearby). 🐾 I already know “sit”, “down”, and sometimes “come” (I’m still working on that one!). 🐾 I get excited and might jump up for kisses, so little kids may not be the best match. 🐾 I show zero aggression—even if my dog sister takes a bone from my mouth, I just let her have it! 🐾 I love being the center of attention and will happily nudge in for all the love. 💙 What I’m looking for: ✔️ A family who loves cuddles and fun ✔️ An active home that enjoys walks, playtime, and outdoor exploring ✔️ A dog sibling with similar energy would be amazing! ✔️ A comfy bed (or yours 😜) to crash on at night I’m neutered, up to date on vaccines, and ready to find my perfect match! Could that be you? 💕

Dixie

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Female, 1 yr 7 mos
Alma, WI
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Story
Meet Dixie! This sweet 1.5-year-old terrier mix is searching for a quiet, patient forever home where she can truly feel safe and loved. Dixie has taken a little extra time to settle into her foster home, but once she trusts you, she’ll be your shadow—following you everywhere and wanting to be held or snuggled up beside you all day long. She’s house-trained, good with kids, and does well on a leash. Dixie does okay with other calm, respectful dogs, but would be happiest as the only pup in the household. Dixie will thrive in a calm environment with someone who understands that she may need a little time to adjust, but once she does, she’ll be your most loyal companion. Could you be the one to give Dixie the love and security she deserves? To apply to adopt, visit tailsofhopewi.org. Please note donations using the SPONSOR ME tab on PetFinder will not go to Tails of Hope-WI.

Story
Ileyna is a wonderful 5 year old dog. She loves to play catch and retrive, shes housetrained, obeys commands, shes great on walks and can be left alone. Shes great with kids but not with cats or small animals. Our whole family adores her. The reason why we cannot keep her is due to my husband and my allergies. At first we had to keep Ileyna in the basement but now it has gotten so bad that we cannot allow her to stay in the house anymore. Ileyna deserves to have so much more in her life.

Story
Hi, I`m Rosemary! I came to ECCHA as a transfer with my sister, Marjoram! I am super Energetic, Sweet, and Cuddly! I love attention, food, and running around! I`m definitely the more active and outgoing of the two, between me and my sister. I am a puppy, so I will require lots of attention and training to become a good doggy citizen! Because of this, I come with a training requirement. I also require a refundable spay deposit of $100. Could I be the spice you need in your life?
