Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Dexter and his sister Nona have lived their whole life in a backyard.  At just over a year old they've never known what a warm home feels like. Nona and Dexter had never had a bath or even a haircut. Thankfully we were able to step in and take these brother and sister. They've both been groomed. They get to sleep in a warm bed and get all the snuggles and love. Nona is in a foster home and Dexter is in boarding awaiting a foster home. They are so sweet and so appreciative. They will be going to the vet for a full workup, vaccines and will also be spayed and neutered.

Story
How this pet arrived: This pet was brought in by their previous owner on November 18, 2024. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Papi, a small but mighty dog with a heart full of affection and a bit of a wild side! This little guy loves to chase critters, so he may have a bit of a prey drive, but he's also got a positive history with both cats and other dogs, making him a great fit for a multi-pet household. Papi is all about the cuddles-he's a true lap dog who will happily curl up with you for snuggles and attention. He's friendly and outgoing, greeting strangers with enthusiasm and making new friends in no time. Potty trained and generally low-energy, Papi just wants to be by your side, whether that's lounging around or enjoying the breeze with the window down during car rides. He does have a bit of resource guarding around food, especially with other dogs, so he'll need some guidance in that area. Our trainers will give you the low-down on how to manage this! If you're looking for a companion who loves the simple pleasures of life, Papi could be the one for you! Don't forget a leash and collar! At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. Papi is now ready for his new home! Primary Color: Beige Weight: 19.2 Age: 11yrs 2mths 2wks
