Story
Meet Luna (aka Pound Cake, aka Loony Toons, aka Big Tuna), an approximately 9 year old chihuahua mix. Luna was surrendered in Charlotte by her owners due to a move. She struggled a lot in the shelter environment, defensive and too scared to let staff touch her. She was sprung from the shelter by a volunteer and within hours, she relaxed into her cuddly, attention-loving self. After some R&R in foster care, Luna is now ready to find her forever home! Luna is confident, affectionate, reliable, and an excellent companion. This gal has all the basics down - house trained, crate trained, good in the car, and great on a leash. Luna loves nothing more than a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood (she's been known to keep on trucking for up to 3 miles at a time if you let her) followed by a nap on the couch. Luna would do well as your one-and-only or as part of a pack. She's done well meeting other dogs (especially her size or smaller) and mostly carries on with her business - she's an independent lady! She tends to ignore the cats she's met. Although she hasn't met kids yet, Luna would probably prefer older, gentle kids who understand her age, boundaries, and need for a bit of extra care. Luna is a bit overweight at 18 pounds and will need help from her new family to get back to a healthy weight to ensure her golden years are her best yet. We're having her cloudy eye evaluated by a vet, but it doesn't seem to affect her vision. She can also be a bit standoffish with new people and fearful of being picked up, and would appreciate adopters who understand that time is needed to earn her trust. If you're ready for a short-n-sweet nugget of a buddy, Miss Luna is the lady for you! Apply to meet her today.

Story
Meet Emmett, a 10-year-old Chihuahua mix and blanket connoisseur. He was a very shy and scared pup initially, but he has made so much progress in such a short time and is eager to make new friends! He is house and crate trained. He doesn't love being left at home alone, but has been doing well with medication. Emmett is friendly with all dogs. He is intimidated by big dogs, but has done well when introduced slowly. He is also good with cats and chickens! Because of his missing teeth, his lips often get stuck in silly positions, and his tongue sticks out when he sleeps. He may tremble a bit, but he's a brave boy when getting medicated baths for his skin. He's lost some hair on his back end, but he looks very dapper in his sweaters that help keep him warm. Emmett's favorite thing to do is to snuggle up in his blankets. If you hold an end up, he will burrow underneath, and he loves to be tucked into bed at night. If you're looking for a new snuggle buddy with the silliest faces, Emmett is your dog! Apply to adopt today!
