Meet Ben 🎾💙 Ben is a sweet senior boy who doesn’t know he’s a senior! At 9 years old, he was heartbreakingly surrendered after his owner moved out of the country and refused to take him along.

Story
I found Ruiz about a year ago. He wandered into the establishment where I worked. He was chipped so I called to report him found. His owner did not want him and I couldn't find it in my heart to take him to a shelter. For the first 5 months I was with him 24/7. I had a job where I was able to take him with me every day. In July I had to change jobs and now I work 12+ hours a day and he is just stuck in his kennel at home all day. I feel like he deserves a better life, one I was able to give him before but now i cannot. I am looking for a person who is either retired or works from home that can dedicate more time to him.

Story
Meet Toby! He is an adorable 5-year-old pup who weighs about 10 pounds and has the most charming, unique look. He appears to be a delightful blend of Yorkie and Poodle, with a Yorkie-style coat and coloring paired with long, lanky legs that give him a hint of mini Poodle flair. Quiet, calm, and incredibly loving, Toby is a true cuddle enthusiast and an excellent couch or office companion who is happy to relax nearby while you go about your day.  Toby is affectionate and playful with other dogs and is especially gentle and respectful with senior pups, though he is not a fan of cats. He absolutely adores kids and would do best in a home with children 6 and up, as toddlers may be a bit overwhelming for him. While he may not warm up to you right away, with a little patience, time, and love, his sweet personality shines through. Once Toby bonds with his person, he is a classic Velcro dog who loves deeply and loyally.   This special boy is fine relaxing at home for a few hours and would thrive either with a canine companion or with a human who is home often, such as someone who works from home or is retired. Toby is working on his leash reactions to other dogs on walks. He is very excited to say “hello” and act like a boss, but he is doing great with redirections. Toby has clearly been through a lot, but as trust builds, his affectionate and charming nature truly blossoms. He is a gem who deserves a forever home filled with kindness, patience, and love. If you are interested in adopting, please visit the I.C.A.R.E. Dog Rescue website and complete an adoption application: www.icaredogrescue.org/ready-to-adopt Adoption fee includes: spay/neuter • shots up to date • micro-chip • fecal and vet check Breeds and age are not guaranteed.Click here to watch a video of Toby.January 17, 2026, 7:22 pm

Story
Meet Moose! Don’t let the name fool you, Moose may sound like a lumbering forest beast, but this 7 month old, 5 lb. Terrier mix is more pint sized goofball than antlered giant. He has already mastered the art of being ridiculously cute and delightfully dramatic and fully believes he is a big dog living in a small dog body. Moose struts on walks like he owns the neighborhood and treats every squeaky toy as an arch nemesis that must be conquered immediately. Moose is almost fully potty trained and confidently uses both the doggie door and puppy pad, depending on the situation or his mood. He lives with kids and doggy foster sisters and gets along wonderfully with everyone, always ready for a game of chase, a cuddle pile, or a group treat break. Food motivated and full of personality, this little guy will do just about anything for a snack. If you are looking for a puppy with confidence, sass, and a huge heart packed into a loaf of bread sized body, Moose might just be your perfect match. If you are interested in adopting, please visit the I.C.A.R.E. Dog Rescue website and complete an adoption application: www.icaredogrescue.org/ready-to-adopt Adoption fee includes: spay/neuter • shots up to date • micro-chip • fecal and vet check Breeds and age are not guaranteed.
