Story
Meet Kian, the perfect blend of playful energy and cuddly affection! This smart and athletic Havanese/Terrier mix is a real showstopper, sporting beautiful soft tawny and black-tinged fur and a uniquely cool tail. He loves his toys and walks, making him an ideal companion for active individuals or families. Though still mastering leash manners and experiencing occasional indoor "pee pee" accidents, Kian is already excelling at "sit" and is almost fully potty trained. He's happiest when by his human's side, whether it's snuggling on the couch or cruising in the car. Currently working on crate training, Kian hopes to soon be independent in his crate without any dramatic theatrics. While his playful soft mouth makes him best suited for homes with kids over 8, his enthusiasm and eagerness to please make him a wonderful addition to any loving and patient home. Kian is a loyal friend who will fill your days with love, laughter, and plenty of playful antics. Apply today to meet this sweet boy!

If you would like the first opportunity to adopt, please fill out an application to be considered.   Adoption Fee: $850   Meet Rhyme – The Snuggly, Bouncy, Love-Packed Bichon-Poo! Looking for a hypoallergenic pup with a non-shedding coat that’s perfect for allergy sufferers? How about one who’s equal parts playful, cuddly, and just a little bit mischievous? Well, meet Rhyme, a 1-2 year old, 14-pound ball of fluff and joy who’s ready to find her forever home!   A Day in the Life of Rhyme (AKA: Your Future Sidekick) Rhyme starts her day at 5:30 AM sharp—because why waste a perfectly good morning? She heads outside with her foster sibling, Raven, for a quick potty break, then fuels up with breakfast. After that, it’s time for some serious backyard play before settling into her daily routine of… well, being adorable and demanding attention.   During the day, she alternates between hanging out in the laundry room and backyard, playing a round (or ten) of fetch in the living room, and graciously allowing herself to be adored. Evenings are for more fetch, more toys, and finally some good old-fashioned snuggling on the couch. At bedtime, Rhyme prefers to sleep next to her human, because, let’s be honest, she’s the ultimate Velcro dog—but with a little time, she could learn to settle in a crate.   Personality – Affection Overload Incoming! From the moment Rhyme stepped paw into her foster home, she decided that she was the queen of attention. She loves people, loves pets, and loves giving kisses (so prepare for an enthusiastic face-washing at all times). She initially ignored the cat but has now decided that chasing the kitty is her new favorite hobby—though she’s easily redirected.   Her ideal day includes: Following you from room to room like a dedicated shadow Snuggling up as close as possible whenever you sit down Keeping an eye on all your activities (especially if food is involved) Playing fetch like an Olympic athlete   She’s also a bit of a comedian—she once jumped over the cat mid-fetch and once pushed Raven through the dog door when she was taking too long (efficiency is key!).   Social Skills – Fur-iendly, Fun, & Full of Love Rhyme gets along great with other dogs, but let’s be real—her true love is YOU. While she likes hanging out with Raven, she’s not much of a cuddle buddy with other pups—her preferred cuddle target is you, always you.   She’s been gentle with kids (ages 11+) and would likely do well with younger ones, as long as they’re ready for a little training on boundaries (she’s a jumper, but we’re working on it!).   Training – A Work in Progress, But a Fast Learner! Housetrained? Yes! Uses the dog door like a pro. Crate trained? Meh… She can stay in a crate but might cry a little (or a lot). Leash walking? Getting there! She pulls a bit and has a talent for circling around your legs (fancy footwork required). Chewing? Oh yes, she’s got skills. If she can reach it, she’ll probably taste-test it (RIP to one unfortunate camera cord). Barking? Only when someone’s at the door—she takes her job as official home security officer very seriously.   The Perfect Home for Rhyme A home where she can be the center of attention (seriously, she loves being spoiled). A family that will play with her and snuggle her every single day (this is a requirement). Patience and consistency for training—she’s a smart girl who wants to please! Another dog is fine, but she really just wants her human’s love the most.   Why You Need Rhyme in Your Life She’s sweet, sassy, playful, cuddly, and full of love—with just the right touch of mischief to keep you entertained. Whether she’s pushing her dog friend through a door, jumping over the cat in a game of fetch, or curled up against you watching TV, Rhyme is guaranteed to bring laughter, warmth, and endless love to her forever home.   Are you ready for your new best friend? Rhyme is waiting to steal your heart!    Rhyme is an option for a home that has had a dog previously. If there are children they need to be at least over the age of 5 and knock over proof.                February 7, 2025, 11:11 am
