Story
Shy has been a foster at our doggy daycare, from county animal control, since July 2022. She scared of humans and is very slow to warm up, this is why we have not actively advertised her for adoption. She absolutely loves other dogs and loves to play. We would not suggest cats due to her predatorial instincts to hunt small prey; she could be enticed to chase. Although she has never shown signs of aggression, we don't recommend small children due to her being frightened. She is trained either in or out of a crate. She's spayed and UTD on vaccines. No known medical issues. She would do best in a calmer setting with someone that's willing to take it slow with her. She is a lover but is timid.

Story
Meet Tiramisu   Tiramisu is a 5-month-old little girl with a huge personality and an endless supply of joy. She was found with her siblings and mom when she was just one week old after being surrendered from a difficult situation, and she has grown into a happy, confident, playful pup who is ready to take on the world.   This girl is very, very playful and absolutely lives for fun. She and her sister Mochi love to romp around together, and Tiramisu would do best in a home with another playful dog who can keep up with her energy and enthusiasm. Playtime is her favorite thing, but she also has so much love to give and bonds deeply with her people.   Tiramisu has that perfect mix of silly puppy energy and a big, bold personality. She wants to play, explore, and soak up life, and she can’t wait to find a forever home that will let her be her joyful, playful self while continuing her puppy training and adventures.   If you’re looking for a fun-loving pup with a big heart and an even bigger personality, Tiramisu might be your perfect match.   ##2609454##

Story
This sweet 6-year-old, 15-pound survivor is finally ready for her forever home! After spending her early years as a street dog in Puerto Rico and raising multiple litters, she’s getting her first real chance to simply be someone’s cherished companion. Despite her rough past and a few physical challenges — she’s missing one eye and has some old injuries to her back legs — she gets around wonderfully. She walks well on a leash, is fully potty trained, and is picking up basic commands quickly (especially when snacks are involved!). You’d never guess she once lived on the streets. She’s taken to indoor life like a natural! Her ideal day includes cozy naps, gentle strolls, and plenty of snuggles. She’s an excellent house companion and loves curling up beside her person for pets and affection. She’s even starting to enjoy toys! Once she feels comfortable, she becomes the sweetest cuddle bug. She does well with both cats and dogs after a proper introduction, and she’s now spayed, vaccinated, and heartworm negative. She’s looking for: An experienced dog owner who understands she’ll need a little time to adjust A calm, loving home where she can feel safe A home with teenage children or older This resilient girl has overcome so much and has endless love to give. Could you be her perfect match? ##2261099##
