Patches stitches are out, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with how great he looks and how well he’s adapting! |

Once she's comfortable with you and all settled in, she is an excellent companion and will reward you with epic snuggles and much love. Ginny should be in an adult only home. |

Diegolearn more
Diego is a good boy, likes to be close to you when you're sitting around and working on the computer. He's crate trained, and likes hanging out in his crate during the day when you're away from home. At night, he learned very quickly to sleep on a bed on the floor, without trying to jump on my bed. He sleeps quietly until you're ready to get up and let him out. Diego gets very excited to go for a walk, and gets vocal when he sees you putting on your shoes. This is a behavior we're working to extinguish right now. Diego is nervous around new people. He needs an adopter who will understand from dog stress signs and only let him approach them. Diego is not a fit for young children in the home, as children can be unpredictable and make him nervous. Diego's adopters should understand that they should not stick their hands in his face unpredictably, he should be only calmly petted, especially by new people. Once he knows and trusts you, he will roll over for belly rubs. Diego is an affectionate dog, but it's best that he goes to a calm home where he can feel secure. Diego loves to play fetch! He's also good with other dogs in the home. Diego can be a little leash reactive, where he barks and pulls towards other dogs. This is a behavior we're also working on using positive reinforcement. Energy Level? Medium House trained? Mostly Describe how they are on leash? He pulls ahead initially but not hard, and will walk better after a few minutes. Working on leash manners. Describe how they are with other dogs? Good in the same household. Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they? Yes, Diego has lived with cats in his previous home. Commands they know? Sit, going into his crate with a visual signal What are their favorite things? Playing fetch What do they need to work on? leash manners, he can benefit from more basic obedience cues. How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone? Good. Up to 8 hours in his previous home. Where do they sleep? Crate during the day, on a dog bed on the floor at night. What is their ideal home? Adult only home, with people who are experienced around nervous dogs and understand stress signs. |

HarleyAge: 12 years old.
Breed: Terrier/Chihuahua Mix Weight: 9 pounds Sex: (N)Male learn more
Harley is a sweet and loving senior boy! He will follow you around the house and snuggle up with you on the couch for a movie or a book. Harley has no teeth remaining. Energy Level? Calm House trained? Harley is a senior boy, and during the day, he needs to be let out frequently (every 2 hours); otherwise, he'll have an accident. We recently started him on urinary meds. It's too early to tell if it's helping. Belly bands are working when we can't let him out. He can hold his urine about 6 hours overnight. Describe how they are on leash? Likes to lead but doesn't pull super hard Describe how they are with other dogs? Fine, will bark at other dogs while walking, but he wants to see them. He currently lives with the 2 other dogs in the house and is fine with them. He is also happy to do his own thing. Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they? None Commands they know? He knows to sit when waiting to be fed. Will come to you if you call his name. What are their favorite things? Eating after his walk, going on walks, sleeping What do they need to work on? Harley is a good old boy. One thing he maybe needs work on is if you’re petting him when he starts falling asleep he will sometimes start mouthing you (he has no teeth) for bothering him. So even though he’s snuggled up against you, you can’t just continuously pet him as he will start gumming you. How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone? He is totally fine, just chills on the couch. Left alone for a few hours Where do they sleep? Harley is very happy to sleep in his crate. What is their ideal home? Someone who wants a loyal companion and company from having a dog in the house. This person would ideally be home most of the day to ensure he can be taken outside every few hours. Harley would be perfectly happy to lay on the couch next to his human all day long or go in the car or on a walk for some daily adventures. |

In his bed, in his xpen. What is their ideal home? We think Cashie would do best in a quiet home. Other dogs or cats would be okay or as the only pet. Ideally, only older children who would understand that he doesn't like to be disturbed while eating. This is a behavior that can be worked with over time, however, small children may not understand. Cashmere is a quiet dog— we haven’t heard him bark. He whimpers at times when he wants attention. He is an amazing boy and will happily give you years of love and enjoyment and just asks for the same in return. He’s a chill guy and we just love him! |

GeorgiaADOPTED June 2023
Age: 5 years Breed: Spaniel Mix Weight: pounds Sex: (S)Female Adoption Fee: $325 youtube video of Georgia learn more
Georgia is very energetic and loves people. Whenever we have friends over, she will cuddle them and ask for pets, even friends she has never met. She likes people on the street and at the park too. She likes to take walks but is also fine to chill and wants to curl up next to you. Energy Level? Medium. All the small dogs we have fostered have been seniors, so I don't have a great reference point, but she can do an hour walk without breaking a sweat (and enjoys it). House trained? Yes Describe how they are on leash? She pulls a bit forward and backward when she wants to sniff something, but mostly she's very good and walks alongside you. Describe how they are with other dogs? Sometimes she is fine, but she seems better with small dogs. She can be territorial and will bark, growl, and snap if they get too close to her (about 4-6' is her range). But she lived with another dog for years, so if properly socialized, she should be fine. Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they? N/A Commands they know? Sit, wait, her name (Georgia), the corrector "uh-uh" What are their favorite things? She loves people. I think if she could curl up on the couch next to someone (or multiple someones) for 23.5 hours a day (with the remaining 30 minutes for a walk), she might die of happiness. What do they need to work on? Probably nothing. She needs to be socialized with larger dogs and introduced to any dogs she's living with thoughtfully and carefully. Since she lived with Alice for her whole life, she can live with other dogs. How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone? The maximum we left her alone was about 3 hours. She whined a bit but otherwise was very calm and waits patiently to be let out. We always crate her just as a matter of policy. Where do they sleep? Crate at the foot of the bed What is their ideal home? Georgia would love to be the center of attention. She would also be fine in an apartment since she doesn't need much space and wants to be as close as possible to humans anyway. She is very well potty trained and doesn't need to use the bathroom a ton, so taking her out a few times a day would likely have a very low risk of accidents. For Georgia, the more people, the better. She would probably not like a home where she is not allowed on the furniture and loves going with people when they go out. She would love it if her humans worked from home so she could curl up on their laps or next to their feet. She is a lovely dog. |

Otto is a sweet, friendly, and playful pup. He warms up quickly to new people and has been great with dogs. He loves attention from everyone. He does well with kids and adults. He does get excited and jumps on kids. But he is learning to keep all feed on the ground. Otto loves to play and investigate everything, like a typical young pup. He will get into mischief, so you will want to puppy-proof your house and not leave Otto alone with your favorite pair of shoes. If you leave him unattended, he will try to chew on things around your house, but he gets better daily. He loves chewing on toys and bones and likes to play fetch. Energy Level? Medium level. He can have bursts of energy but settles down. House trained? Yes. The first few days of having him, we did have a diaper on him because he wanted to mark. He has been fine since days 3-4.

Sit before putting on the leash to go outside. "Go to bed" for him to get into his crate. Off and working on leaving it when we are on walks. What are their favorite things? He loves to snuggle and play and chew on things. What do they need to work on? Otto recently is doing some training each week, and we are so excited about his progress. Adopters need to be committed to training for our young boy who deserves it. How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone? Otto is fine in his crate. He is a chewer, so its best nothing is left with him. No accidents in the crate. We typically leave him for 4-5 hours. The longest time alone in the crate is 7 hours. Where do they sleep? He sleeps either in the TALL xpen or in his crate. What is their ideal home? Otto would be best in a home that is willing to continue his training plan. He is so smart and trainable. Ideally, he would live with an active family. He would do fine as an only dog or another dog to play with him. He is great with kids too. |

Johnny Boy -You would never know Johnny Boy is 13 when he gallops through the house first thing in the morning, ready for his walk! A bit hard of hearing, he loves to explore and is happiest on the leash, sniffing his way through his neighborhood. Affectionate and curious. Energy Level? Medium House trained? Yes Describe how they are on leash? Johnny loves going for walks. He is good with people but barks and lunges at other dogs when he sees them. Describe how they are with other dogs? He is very good with his foster brother, Wrigley. They groom each other and often sleep in the same crate. Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they? A bit too interested in the resident cat initially but now happily ignores him...for the most part. Commands they know? Wait (before heading out the door for a walk) and crate. Johnny is hard of hearing, if not nearly entirely deaf, so visual or physical commands are needed (ie, a light tap on his butt). What are their favorite things? Johnny loves to go for walks and enjoys curling up on his (or my) bed. He loves treats as well. What do they need to work on? General commands...sit, stay. He needs to learn to walk more calmly on the leash when he sees another dog. How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone? I have left him at the house for up to 8 hours a few times a week. Not destructive and knows how to use the doggy door. He can be whiny if he hears I am in the next room, but he calms down when I leave the house. Where do they sleep? Sleeps in his crate in my bedroom. What is their ideal home? Johnny loves to go for walks...his ideal home would allow him the freedom to explore his neighborhood with a few walks every day. He can get a bit whiny initially if he is separated and knows you are still in the house. He loves to be near his person (he's not necessarily a lap dog, but he likes to be close). He would do well with other dog-friendly dogs. |
