Story
🎾Meet Harvey Harvey is an adorable five year old Yorkie. He has a bigger than life personality in the cutest little body. Harvey is all about playtime and adventures. While he does love pets and snuggles, he is definitely not your typical small lap dog ! Harvey needs an active family to keep up with his busy bee energy. 🐝 Harvey is good with other dogs and loves children. He would do best in a home with a fenced yard and either school age children and/or another active dog to play with. Harvey would not do well with a sedimentary lifestyle, he is a go-go-go boy and needs lots of interactive play, walks and attention. 🐾 Harvey is crate and house trained. He does well in his crate for short periods and overnight but can not go to a family who plans to crate him for extended time frames. So if your family lives for adventures and is looking for an active little buddy to join the fun, please submit the application. Harvey can’t wait for his perfect forever family to find him and get the party started 🎉 ** Harvey is already in the New England area.

Story
Bug is a conundrum. He's complex. He has layers...many, many, many layers. Like an onion.When Bug originally came to us, he was...not nice. It was an experience. We're pretty sure he was going through withdrawals because his regular supply of human souls had been cut off or something. He was 9lbs of fury and rage and when we tell you that it was ON SIGHT whenever this dog saw another living thing, it was ON SIGHT and he would come out swinging. Ya'll know the Chain Chomps from Super Mario? Yeah. That.Have you ever seen a furious, sentient cotton ball? You have now.It was like being haunted by a dollop of buttercream frosting that had been possessed by a vengeful Victorian ghost.Bug had one passion in life and it was fisticuffs. He had beef with everything. You, me, himself, the sky, our microchip scanner (RIP), the very fabric of the universe in general. Bug would fight God (Morgan Freeman circa Bruce Almighty specifically) and win.In true Jekyll and Hyde fashion, Bug now is the complete opposite.Bug now likes other dogs, likes people, and likes cats. He's really just 9lbs of cotton candy. We still wouldn't put him with kids under 12 juuuuust in case but, obviously, his prior behavior was fear based and should not be held against him in a court of law (or elsewhere). He's young, probably only around 1yo, and who hasn't made questionable decisions in their youth? He's an absolute STAR on a leash, would pick people over toys every chance he gets, and likes to show off by giving you his paw even when you didn't ask for it. Contrary to what he made us believe at first, we don't think Bug is REALLY a chaos gremlin. Pretty sure he's just a shih tzu mix.
