History: We recently welcomed an adorable litter of pittie mix puppies from a rural overcrowded shelter. They are SO unique and sweet in their own individual ways. They are officially ready to start their journey in finding forever homes of their own soon!

A Note from the Foster: I’m a sweet, cuddly, happy pup with lots of love (and zoomies) to give! I LOVE playtime—toss a toy, wiggle a rope, or just act silly with me and I’m all in. Afterward? I’m ready to curl up right next to you for some quality snuggle time. 💞

I’m still learning the whole “potty outside” thing. I’m trying really hard, but I’ll admit… cold weather is not my favorite. 🥶 I mean, can you blame me? I’m improving every day with patience, praise, and a good routine!

I like my crate—it’s my cozy little hangout—but lately I’ve discovered something even better: sitting right next to my foster mom. Turns out being close to humans is the BEST reward ever (plus then they pet me). 🥰

I’m playful, affectionate, and FULL of personality. If you’re looking for a dog who will make you smile, keep you company, and teach each other along the way, I might just be your perfect match. Let’s play, cuddle, and grow together! 🐶💕

Adoption Fee: $760 + tax

Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
