🐾 Meet Cuddlebug 🐾Not every dog walks in like they own the place.Some… take a minute.Cuddlebug is Arrow’s sister — but where Arrow is bold and ready to take on the world, Cuddlebug is the quiet one watching from the sidelines, figuring you out first.She’s not shy forever.She’s just careful with her heart.At first, she’ll hang back. Observe. Take it all in.And then one day… she decides you’re hers.And that’s when everything changes.The first time she trusts you enough for cuddles?You’ll understand exactly how she got her name.She melts into you.Leans in.Stays close.Not because she has to — because she chose you.⸻Cuddlebug is a 25 lb wire-haired beauty with the most soulful brown eyes and those big, expressive ears you won’t forget. She’s got a unique little mix that gives her both softness and personality — the best of both worlds.She’s:✔️ Spayed✔️ UTD on vaccines✔️ Mostly housebroken (will use puppy pads if needed)✔️ Good with dogs✔️ Kid friendly✔️ Working on leash skills and confidenceShe loves:• Lounging in the sun• Playing with her dog friends (with a little sneak-attack energy 😏)• Chew toys• Quiet cuddle time on the couch or in bed⸻This is not an “instant best friend” dog.This is a slow-burn, earn-it kind of love.The kind that unfolds quietly…and then suddenly feels like it’s always been there.If you want a dog who chooses you —not just anyone —Cuddlebug is that dog.⸻Adoption Details:• DOB: 9/15/25 | ~25 lbs | Terrier mix (per paperwork)• Adoption fee: $500• Located in Kenosha, WI👉 Apply to adopt at www.biggiepawsrescue.orgDATCP # 494550

Story
ARROW 🤍Born to love. Just waiting for someone to love back.Arrow is what happens when you mix a little fluff, a little muscle… and a whole lot of heart.At 6 months old (DOB: 09/15/2025) and around 30 pounds, this sweet girl is equal parts cuddle bug and happy, playful pup. Her breed? Your guess is as good as ours—maybe a little Shih Tzu, maybe a little pit, definitely 100% adorable.She came to us with her sister (another total cuddle bug 💜), and while these two made it to safety, there are still 11 more siblings waiting for their chance.So yeah… this one matters.Arrow is already off to a great start—she’s housebroken, crate trained, and has really nice manners for a young dog. She settles well when you’re away, but when you’re home? She’s right by your side, soaking up all the love she can get.She loves kids, enjoys other dogs, and has that easy, happy personality that makes her fit right into family life. She’s still working on leash skills, but she’s eager to learn—and if you pick her up instead, she’s not going to complain.⸻The details:• 6 months old (DOB: 09/15/2025)• ~30 lbs• Mixed breed (Shih Tzu… pit… something in between 😄)• 📍 Kewaunee County area• Kid friendly ✔️• Dog friendly ✔️• Cats: unknown• Housebroken ✔️• Crate trained ✔️• Leash skills: in progress• UTD on vaccines ✔️• Microchipped ✔️• Spayed ✔️💰 Adoption Fee: $500⸻Arrow isn’t just looking for a home—she’s looking for someone to love as much as she already knows how to.👉 Apply at: www.biggiepawsrescue.org#BiggiePaws #RescueWithoutFluffDATCP # 494550
