Story
Do you dream of a dog who is wonderful company, loves lap-dog life, and is a one-of-a-kind cutie? You are right where you should be! Meet Dolly! She is fortunate and is being fostered in a loving home where they have shared she is peaceful, easy-going presence and a quiet way of keeping you company -never demanding, never overwhelming, just happy to be near you and part of the moment. She is estimated to be 3 years old and weighs 34 lbs- perfectly pint-sized and petite. Dolly is currently fostered in a loving home where she’s shown what a dream she can be day to day. She’s house trained and crate trained, settles beautifully at home, and will happily warm your lap as soon as offered. She’s affectionate in a soft, understated way with a true love for the resident recliner. She walks nicely on leash and is generally easy to manage, though new environments can make her a bit unsure so living somewhere with peaceful walking spaces will be important. In other words, Dolly would be happiest in a quieter neighborhood or a calm apartment building rather than a busy, city-style lifestyle with lots of noise and constant activity. Think peaceful streets, slower mornings, and a cozy couch (or recliner) to return to. Dolly lives with cats and respects them well. One of her feline housemates enjoys running, which sometimes sparks a very slow, half-hearted chase - more curiosity than intensity - and overall she coexists nicely with cats who understand dog boundaries and people who can read her chase as innocent playfulness. With other dogs, Dolly is polite, she is not initially a playful dog and won’t be the one to start out the play session but she handles being around busy, playful dogs calmly and confidently. She does get the occasional zoomie inspired moment with a dog in her foster home who is easy-going and playful without being pushy. In group settings, she tends to sniff hello and then wander off to contentedly do her own thing. She could live in a home with other dogs as long as they have each other to play with and don’t pressure her to join in. A lower-energy pup-pal who isn’t pushy would be the best fit but it is just as easy to see her being happy as your one-and-only. She hasn’t met littles yet, but we could see her doing well with older kids who will let her take her time to get to know them and build a friendship. She’s not a chaos-loving dog, and we all know that little kids bring their own kind of fun-loving chaos, she just isn't that kind of girl, she’s a quiet companion kind of girl. Dolly may not be the life of the party, but she’s something even better, steady, sweet, and perfectly snuggly. She’s looking for a home that values calm moments, gentle affection, and the kind of companionship that doesn’t need to bring the party to be meaningful. If you happen to have a recliner- even better- as long as youre okay with her curling up beside you and occasionally calling hers. Ready to make room for Dolly in your life?

Story
Meet Lilly Beth Lilly Beth is a happy-go-lucky girl with a confident spirit and a loyal heart. She enjoys exploring her surroundings, keeping an eye on her people, and being part of an active home where she can feel useful and secure. She is spayed, house trained, and crate trained, and she does well respecting fencing and boundaries. Lilly Beth is also polite indoors and prefers to potty outside, though she will use potty pads if needed. Lilly Beth has been around horses and does well in rural or country-style environments. She can be dog selective, so a meet-and-greet is required to ensure a good match. While she generally respects fencing, she is athletic and can clear a 40' gate if she feels there is a perceived threat, so a secure yard and attentive handler are important. Stout and sturdy for her size, Lilly Beth is a strong, capable girl who would thrive with an experienced adopter who understands confident dogs and values structure, consistency, and companionship. Lilly Beth would do best in a home that offers: • Secure fencing • Proper introductions to other dogs • An adopter who appreciates a protective, loyal companion • Space to explore and stretch her legs If you’re looking for a devoted sidekick with personality, confidence, and heart, Lilly Beth may be the perfect addition to your family.

Story
Meet Butter Beans — the little adventure noodle with satellite-dish ears, face sprinkles, and a heart full of pure joy. One look at him and you’ll instantly understand his name: he looks like someone sprinkled teeny tiny butter beans all over his nose and cheeks. They’re the cutest speckles ever created. Scientists (me) have confirmed they increase his charm by 300%. Look at his face. LOOK at those speckles. His freckles are a whole personality. They’re cute. They’re powerful. They are his greatest weapon. Butter Beans is a playful, snuggly, people-loving young guy who greets the world with curiosity and tail wags. He LOVES attention. If you pet him, he will melt into you like warm butter. He enjoys belly rubs, face scritches, and basically any form of “human touches me = best moment of my life.” He’s confident meeting new people, loves men, loves women, and basically thinks every human is his personal cheering squad. Go watch Butter Bean's video! https://youtu.be/A6c3rG5FSnA?si=55SuuWv4Q0uEpzlz He’s still young, still learning, still goofy, affectinate and oh so cuddly- the perfect combo. His foster mom loves him and has made him a well socialized pup! He has the routine and down to a T! Butter is smart, eager, and already shines with training. He goes to social doggy day care and is a start there. He’s crate trained, house trained, rides beautifully in the car, and is the ideal size for scooping into the backseat for an adventure. He LOVES exploring outdoors and will trot around like he’s on an official mission, he even hops around like a deer on walks. You have to see it to believe. Perfect hiking, exploring, patio relaxing, walking, road-tripping, end of day TV time, and snuggles buddy! Dog-wise, Butter Beans is a socialite. He’s confident with his interactions and meeting all types of dog and LOVES other dogs. Big, calm leaders? He loves them. Goofy, buddies? Yes please. Butter Beans is currently fostered with four dogs! From 25lbs to 60lbs, males and females. He is mindful, respectful, playful, and has great social cues. However, Butter Beans would also be A-okay as your one and only pup! He is very loving and loyal to his humans, and does not need any doggy friends to thrive! Cats? Absolutely not. Butter Beans said, “I respect you… from over there… far away.” Kids? YES! He’s affectionate, silly, snuggly, and LOVES attention. As long as the kiddos can handle his enthusiasm and floppy hugs, he’d be a fantastic family dog. We will absolutely do further kid testing based on your request! A house with a fenced yard is truly his happy place. He’d prefer running and playing fetch with you in the yard. He loves to go outside at any time to get his puppy zoomies out and then come inside and relax with you!! Butter Beans LOVES toys, literaly any toy- he tossess them up in the air and catchces it. It is soooo adorable. He’s bright, loyal, and always down for a car ride, a backyard zoom, or collapsing dramatically onto your lap for snuggles afterward. He’s silly, he’s sweet, he’s sparkling with potential, and he has more personality than any dog has the right to have. If you want a hilarious, loving, freckle-faced little best friend — one who will make you laugh daily and snuggle you nightly — Butter Beans is ready to melt his bean-speckled self right into your heart.
