Story
Meet Kash! This rambunctious little guy is full of love and energy! He loves a good cuddle and long naps, as well as running around the park and saying hi to other dogs. He is just over 1 years old, and is almost fully potty trained. We would totally keep him if he weren't territorial with the cats. He is not aggressive, but will follow the cats around and mark their items (this is what I meant by 'almost' potty trained). He doesn't seem to do that with dogs or other humans, and will still play with the cats when they play. This is his second home, his first home was with a family member and her family, who were moving and could not take him with. We want him to find a loving home that is able to dedicate some quality cuddle time and lots of treats!

Story
Hi, This is Donovan (Donny). He is a charming 2.5 yr old pug who was saved from the pound and is now searching for a home where he can feel secure and deeply loved. He absolutely adores people and has never shown aggression toward humans. In fact, he bonds strongly with his person and thrives on close companionship. ⚠️ ONLY PET HOME REQUIRED ⚠️ Donovan must be the only pet in the home. He does not do well with other dogs, does not like cats, and can have a very quick reaction when around other animals. He does best with someone who is home often or able to include him in daily outings, as he experiences separation anxiety when left alone. Donovan is potty trained, though during anxiety episodes he may have occasional accidents. With patience, consistency, and a calm environment, he will reward his person with unwavering loyalty, affection, and a big pug heart.

Story
Born in late March 2025, this adorable 5-month-old pug/chihuahua mix is already winning hearts with his cuddly charm and gentle nature. His story began when his loving mama was rescued from a shelter while pregnant — now this little guy is ready to write his next chapter: a forever home. Rick is sweet, calm, and affectionate—great with gentle kids and other small, friendly dogs. He’s still learning the ropes (house training and puppy manners are in progress!), but he’s a bright little boy who loves to please and be close to his people. Fully vetted, neutered, and current on all his vaccines, Rick is happy, healthy, and ready to be your loyal companion. His adoption fee is $480. If you’re looking for a furry friend who will stick by your side through thick and thin — Rick is your "Together Forever" kind of pup. To learn more or request an adoption application, please contact Carrie On Rescue: Call or text: 480-603-7680 Email: carrieonrescuers@hotmail.com Let this little love song of a pup bring joy and devotion into your life.

Story
Meet George Michael! Born in late March 2025, this sweet 5-month-old pug/chihuahua mix has a heart full of love and a soulful spirit that’s impossible to resist. His story began before he even opened his eyes—his mama was rescued from a shelter while pregnant. Now, George is ready for the next beautiful chapter: a forever home with someone who’s been waiting just for him. George is gentle, affectionate, and full of quiet charm. He adores being around kind kids and other small, friendly dogs. He’s still a puppy, so he’s working on house training and learning the basics, but he’s smart, eager to learn, and loves being by your side. He’s been neutered, vet-checked, and is current on all his vaccines—happy, healthy, and ready to share his love. His adoption fee is $480. If you believe in fate and forever friendship, you’ll know exactly what George means when he looks at you with those sweet eyes - "I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)." To learn more or request an adoption application, please contact Carrie On Rescue: Call or text: 480-603-7680 Email: carrieonrescuers@hotmail.com George Michael is ready to find his person. Maybe it’s you.
