Dogs for Adoption in Alafaya, FL: 30 Dogs Looking for a Home

His favorite treats so far are duck and freeze dried chicken hearts. Sullie adores sunbathing on the cooler days, and he loves the wind in his hair. He loves balls, and is conquering fetch and let go. He is content being under feet, being rubbed - alllllll dayyy long.

Sullie does have a vocal side where he becomes chatty with his foster family. He occasionally herds them, and gives little love nips. Sullie is dog friendly and is learning that his giant stature approach must go slow. Cats are his bees knees. As long as they accept him, we are confident on a solid respectful friendship.

Sullie is still learning to be crated, though not a big fan - he is adjusting and getting the hang of it. He loves having Peter Frampton serenade him while he hones his crating skills during the day. He rides in the car like a boss, is house trained and will sit at the door signaling the need to go out. He is amazing on leash, and listens to all cues on his walks.

This big fluff ball is the most chill guy mixed with the occasional playful spurt or nightly zoomies. A fenced yard would be appreciated by him to give chase to the squirrels that tempt him. He hasn't been around a kid under 10, and since he doesn't quite understand his size, a close eye would be a must.

Sullie is truly an awesome pal to have around. As a doodle, he will need regular brushing and grooming to keep his coat free of mats. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe that Sullie would be a great forever fit for your family, complete an app and tell us more about you.

Emmett has a gentle, sweet disposition that makes him a joy to have around. He gets along well with other dogs, including his slightly larger foster sibling, although he isn't particularly interested in roughhousing or playing. He has also done well around cats so far. He mostly ignores them and has shown no aggression, making him a promising candidate for a home with feline friends. He's a quiet little gentleman, too! Emmett isn't much of a barker, even when someone knocks at the door, and he rides beautifully in the car. He's so mellow and tolerant that he doesn't even mind having his nails trimmed.

At night, he sleeps comfortably in his own bed, and when left alone, he settles down quietly and behaves himself. He's also discovering the fun of toys and seems especially fond of soft, squeaky ones. Emmett is still learning a few things and will need a patient adopter willing to help him continue building good habits. He is doing great with his house training since he was neutered. He's also learning to walk on a leash, although his walks currently involve a fair amount of stopping and starting as he figures things out.

The good news? Emmett is a sweet, easygoing little guy who seems eager to enjoy the comforts of home. He has no known medical issues, and his loving nature makes him incredibly easy to adore. And when he's not snuggling in your lap, you might find him fast asleep on his back with all four legs sticking straight up in the air — an absolutely irresistible sight!

Emmett is looking for a loving home where he can be cherished for the affectionate, gentle little soul he is. If you're hoping for a loyal companion who will happily keep your lap warm, offer endless sweetness, and bring a little extra love into your everyday life, Emmett may be your perfect match. Those caramel eyes and that beautiful heart just might steal yours!

If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you are the perfect match for Emmett, complete an app and tell us more about you.

While Milo is a pretty laid-back guy, he also enjoys getting out and about with his people. He loves car rides, trips to the pet store, visits to the park, and, of course, a special pup cup along the way. He’s a smart little guy who learns quickly and is very receptive to training. He also walks beautifully on a leash, making him a wonderful little walking companion. Milo is mostly happy to take life at a relaxed pace, but he has a playful side, too.

One of the most special things about Milo is his bond with his best girl, Miss Mitt. These two absolutely adore each other. They love chasing each other around the house and outside, and Miss Mitt has a magical way of bringing out Milo’s playful side and getting those zoomies going. When they aren’t busy playing, you can usually find them cuddled up together. At night, they love snuggling in bed with their humans. Their bond is truly something special, and they must be adopted together.

Milo is incredibly sweet and gentle with children and doesn’t pay much attention to cats. He is also friendly with other dogs and has a very easygoing nature. He really is just a little lover who wants to make friends and soak up affection. Milo is crate trained and can stay in his crate when his humans leave the house. He will use pee pads during the night if he needs to go, and will go potty outside as long as he is taken out often.

Milo’s dream family is one that LOVES affection as much as he does. We’re talking lots of pets, cuddles, hugs, cozy naps, and plenty of quality time with his favorite people. He would thrive with a family who wants a loving little companion by their side and understands that the best part of having a dog is all the love you get to share. And, of course, his family must be ready to welcome his beloved Miss Mitt, too. Milo and Miss Mitt have so much love to give and are hoping to find a forever family who will cherish them both. They do have a little separation anxiety, so we want someone who is home more often than not, and apartment living would not be suitable for them because they can be a little barky for a short while when their people leave. They are not destructive though. We are not requiring a fenced yard, but they would love to have a secure area to run around and play in. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and think these two sweethearts might be the perfect fit for your family, complete an adoption application and tell us more about you. Milo promises to bring the puppy eyes, the cuddles, and a whole lot of love into your life!

Miss Mitt is full of energy and loves to play, especially with children! She is incredibly affectionate with kids, loves running around and playing catch with them, and is even happy to be held and give out plenty of kisses. When playtime is over, she’s just as happy to cuddle up with her human for some quality snuggle time. She truly has the best of both worlds: a playful little firecracker who also loves to be loved on.

Miss Mitt has a very special bond with her best friend, Milo, and these two are a package deal. She absolutely adores him and loves cuddling up to him, giving him kisses, and chasing him around the house and yard. She even has a way of bringing out Milo’s playful side and getting his zoomies going, which is just the cutest thing to watch. At the end of the day, they love snuggling up together with their humans. Their bond is incredibly sweet, and they must be adopted together.

Miss Mitt doesn’t pay much attention to cats, so feline friends are generally no big deal to her. She can be a little cautious and occasionally feisty around other dogs, though, so slow introductions and thoughtful management will be important.

She is currently working on her leash manners, as she gets so excited about her walks that she sometimes wants to pull ahead and pick up the pace. With a little guidance, she can be redirected, and she does well walking alongside Milo. Miss Mitt is crate trained and does well staying in her crate when her humans leave the house. She may be a little vocal at first, but she settles down. At night, she and Milo love to snuggle up and sleep in bed with their humans. She will use pee pads during the night if she needs to go, and will go potty outside as long as she is taken out often. She does great riding in a car.

Miss Mitt is looking for a loving family who will embrace her fun-loving personality, give her plenty of opportunities to play, and make room for lots of cuddles and kisses. Most importantly, she needs a family with room in their hearts for both her and Milo. These two have so much love to give and are ready to find a forever home where they can continue being best friends for life. They do have a little separation anxiety, so we want someone who is home more often than not, and apartment living would not be suitable for them because they can be a little barky for a short while when their people leave. They are not destructive though. We are not requiring a fenced yard, but they would love to have a secure area to run around and play in. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe Miss Mitt and Milo might be the perfect additions to your family, complete an adoption application and tell us more about you. Miss Mitt promises to bring the sunshine, the silliness, and plenty of kisses!

Luke, aka Lukey Boy, is a very lovable approx. 12-year-old, 57lb Pit Bull Terrier mix. Don’t let his age fool you, this boy is healthy and has so much more life and love to give! Luke has a sad story - he was a Lil Rascal back in 2019. He was found tied to a railroad track, taken to the shelter, and put on the euthanasia list. Lil Rascals saved him just in time, and since 2019, he has been living a wonderful life until recently when his momma passed away. His life was turned upside down with no family, no home and nowhere to go. His momma's family couldn't keep him so he came back to Lil Rascals, and now is in boarding, living his life in a kennel, wondering what he did wrong.

Even though he is a senior, he has so much more love to give and wants nothing more than to give love back. His favorite thing to do is to be with his human(s). Whether that be lounging on the couch or going for a walk, having his human(s) with him is the best thing in life. People in general are Luke's favorite thing. Even when he first meets you, he acts like he’s known you his whole life and is so excited to see you! Whether you’re an adult, elder, or a child he absolutely loves everyone and everyone who has ever met this sweet boy loves him. With those big brown eyes and sweet disposition what’s not to love?

Luke is house trained and used to apartment life and also knows how to use a dog door. He can be left alone inside without issues. Unsure if he is crate trained. He loves to sleep on the couch, his dog bed, and at night cuddling next to his human(s). Luke does not get along with other dogs or cats. Not getting along with other dogs and cats is really his only down fall. He has been around chickens and cows through a fence and showed no interest. With dogs, he does fine when he is walking by on a leash. He has a tendency to pull while walking on a leash but otherwise does great on a leash.

One great thing about Luke? He doesn’t bark! Aside from the occasional whine or grunt because he’s hungry, wants attention or needs to go potty, this handsome boy doesn’t make a sound. He does extremely well in car rides. He has made the journey from Florida to Texas to eventually California and then back to Florida from California!

Luke is definitely a toy and treat guy. His favorite toys are anything with squeakers and tennis balls, he loves to play fetch! At 12, this boy can still jump! He also loves to get his “poop treat” after he goes potty. He also loves getting his pup cup at the coffee shop or treat from the sweet teller at the bank.

If you’re looking for a dog that has low to moderate energy to lounge around with, go for a walk, travel with, play fetch or tug of war, Luke is your guy. He will greet you like he hasn’t seen you in years and love and comfort you like there is nothing else better in this world to do. If you believe you have the perfect home for Luke to live out the remainder of his years, complete an app and tell us more about you.

Puzzle does great on a leash and knows exactly what his harness and leash mean. He’s always ready to get dressed for an adventure. He also absolutely LOVES car rides and is a fantastic passenger.

Puzzle is dog-friendly but does best with slow, proper introductions to new canine friends. He also needs a little time to warm up to unfamiliar people, including children. Once he feels comfortable and secure, his sweet personality begins to shine. His experience with cats is unknown.

Puzzle loves playing with toys, but he does have a tendency to guard them from other dogs, so supervised playtime and keeping toys separate when necessary are important. He also does best when fed separately from other dogs.

One thing to know about Puzzle is that he may display some barrier reactivity, sometimes growling or lunging when other dogs approach while he is in his crate. Outside of his crate, he does well with other dogs when given proper introductions. Puzzle would do best with a patient, understanding family who will give him the time and space he needs to build trust and confidence. With consistency, positive reinforcement, and lots of love (and treats), this sweet boy has so much potential.

Despite his uncertain beginnings, Puzzle is a resilient little guy who has so much love to give. He’s learning what it means to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. He just needs someone willing to understand him, respect his boundaries, and give him the forever home he deserves. With patience, consistency, and love, he has so much potential to become an amazing companion. We are requiring a secure fenced yard for him. Could you be the missing piece to Puzzle’s forever home? If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Puzzle, complete an app and tell us more about you.

Meet Cici and Cubby. Sometimes life takes an unexpected turn, and two little hearts find themselves wondering what happened to their world they once knew. That’s what happened to Cubby and Cici. After a death in their family, these two beloved companions were surrendered to our rescue. Cubby, at 12 years old and Cici, at 9 years old, suddenly found themselves in an unfamiliar place, scared and confused. After years of knowing the comfort of home, everything they knew had changed. But with a little love, patience and affection, these two sweet souls are finding their way through again. They’re learning that there are still kind hands to pet them, loving arms to hold them and people who care.

Cici - our precious little booty girl! Oh, sweet Cici! Where do we begin with this adorable 9-year-old yorky. She is the cutest little munchkin with a charming little sway and waddle to her walk. Her foster mom affectionately calls her "my little booty girl," and once you see her toddling along, you’ll understand why. She’s absolutely precious! Cici is a quiet little girl with a sweet personality and a special way of letting you know what she wants. Sometimes she’ll talk to you a little and I have a feeling she’s trying to tell me something important. Maybe she’d like a little pick up and to carry her around. Maybe she wants a little snack. Or perhaps she simply thinks it’s time for a little extra attention. After all, a girl deserves to be spoiled now and then. And Cici certainly knows how to melt your heart. She’s a loving little sweetheart who would be perfectly happy being carried around by her favorite person, enjoying the comfort of knowing she’s safe and loved. She has a gentle presence that makes you want to scoop her up, give her kisses and tell her everything‘s going to be all right. Cici is doing well with her house training - uses peepee pads - along with walks and backyard outings. She does great on a leash and loves going for walks and she’s great on car rides. But wherever Cici goes there is one very important companion she wants by her side, her beloved Cubby.

Cubby is a little gentleman with a big heart! Cubby is a 12-year-old male dachshund with the most beautiful soft red fur and a heart full of love. He’s an affectionate, friendly little gentleman who seems to know that life is sweeter when you have someone special by your side and for Cubby, that someone is his best girl Cici. Cubby is a calm, quiet boy who doesn’t bark much but don’t mistake his quiet nature for a lack of personality. He’s always happy to welcome a kind person, enjoy a good pet, and soak up a little extra affection. He loves his walks meeting new people and stretching out in the yard to enjoy a little sunshine. Because of his friendliness, he will make a wonderful companion. Cubby also rides quietly, he is house trained on peepee pads, walks well on leash and enjoys frequent trips outside. At this stage of his life, Cubby isn’t asking for much - he wants the simple things: a soft place to rest, a gentle hand to pet him, a sunny spot in the yard, and someone who will love him for the sweet little soul he is. Most of all he wants his sweet little Cici close.

Cubby and Cici are looking for a forever home together. They deserve to stay side-by-side, sharing their days with a family who will cherish and love them both now they are ready for their next chapter. Can you open your hearts to this sweet duo? If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and have the perfect home for Cubby and Cici, complete an app and tell us more about yourself.

At bedtime, she happily goes into her kennel and sleeps peacefully through the entire night. She is only kenneled at night and enjoys having room to explore and play during the day.
Cleo loves to use her nose! She has a great time hunting for hidden treats and exploring her surroundings. One of her favorite activities is running around and enjoying the freedom of a securely fenced backyard.
Cleo is completely vetted and ready to find her forever home. She would make a wonderful companion for someone who appreciates a sweet, loyal girl and is willing to give her the patience and reassurance she needs to blossom. With a little time, love, and encouragement, Cleo has so much affection to give and will make a very special addition to the right home.

He prefers soft food
He is house-trained and goes outside regularly but may also use puppy pads between potty breaks.
He can become anxious when left alone and may pace or cry initially but settles down.
He will need regular grooming to keep his coat healthy and prevent matting.
He has a good bit of energy and loves to play.

Bowie will thrive in a patient and loving home that can give him a little time to adjust. Once he settles in, his affectionate personality shines through, making him a wonderful companion.

This bright, playful girl is happiest when she has an active family and a canine playmate who is at least her size and has a similar energy level and enthusiasm for play. Leona gets along wonderfully with her three foster siblings; however, they are all seniors and much smaller than she is. When she gets excited, Leona can play a little roughly, so she would do best with a confident, playful dog who can match her energy level and with people who will supervise interactions and help her practice good manners.

Leona also loves chewing on her antler bones and especially enjoys tearing apart her colorful wool balls. These wool balls are nontoxic and designed to be destroyed. Her fosters will send a few along with her in case her new family would like to continue providing her favorite toy. So far, Leona has not shown much interest in stuffed toys, ropes or tug toys, although that could change.

Leona can be cautious when meeting new people, but she warms up quickly—especially when they have cheese or dog cookies! Patient introductions, positive reinforcement, and allowing her to approach at her own pace will help her feel comfortable and build trust.

Leona sleeps quietly through the night in bed with her people, and we would like that to continue in her new home. She is generally quiet, but when she does not immediately get her way, she can become loud and vocal. She is a fast learner though, and usually settles down quickly. Leona is crate-trained, but she may initially cry before settling down. Her new family should be prepared to continue building her comfort with the crate and to use consistent, reward-based training to help her mature.

For these reasons, Leona needs a family with breed experience who understands that her small size comes with plenty of energy, opinions and personality. She will thrive with people who enjoy daily walks, interactive play, structure and continued training—and who will appreciate her affectionate, entertaining nature. Because of her small size, Leona needs a home with adults only, or if there are children in the home they must be responsible and respectful towards animals.

Leona is a beautiful, energetic and intelligent dog who very much wants to be someone’s special baby. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the active, patient and committed home she needs, please complete an application and tell us more about yourself!

Because he can be nervous around children, a home without small children would be best.
Arlo currently lives with five other dogs and gets along well with them. He is relaxed and super chill, making him a wonderful companion for someone looking for a little buddy to share their days with.
He is still working on house training and will need a patient family willing to continue helping him learn. Arlo is crate trained, although the crate isn't his favorite place and he may need a few minutes to settle. At night, his favorite place is snuggled up with his person, but he can also sleep comfortably in his crate.
Arlo would thrive in a home where someone is around much of the time and he won't routinely be left alone for long periods. After losing the person and home he loved, he deserves a family who will give him the security, companionship, and affection he needs to feel at home again.
Arlo is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines. He's ready to begin his next chapter with a family of his own.

He’s friendly, confident, and has absolutely no guard-dog tendencies. In fact, Mater’s philosophy is that everyone who walks through the door is a potential new best friend! He isn’t a big barker and is happy to greet just about everyone. Mater enjoys his walks and is a good walking companion. He also loves car rides and gets especially excited when it’s time for walks or mealtime. At home, though, he’s perfectly content lounging around and keeping his human company. He doesn’t need a yard to be happy, although he does love rolling around in the grass when he gets the opportunity. He’s not particularly interested in toys, although every now and then he’ll happily chew on a tennis ball. He’s also a little mouthy when excited—not in an aggressive way, but he sometimes jumps up with his mouth open when he’s happy or excited. He does have a chipped, sharp tooth, so adopters should be mindful of that during his enthusiastic greetings. Because of this excited, mouthy behavior, he may not be the best fit for a home with very young children. Mater isn’t a fan of the vacuum cleaner or very loud noises and would much rather retreat to another room until the commotion is over. Otherwise, he’s an incredibly low-maintenance guy who is happy to simply hang out with his people. Mater is the kind of dog who doesn’t need a lot to be happy. Give him a loving human, a few belly rubs, some walks, and a comfy place to relax, and he’ll be perfectly content. He truly doesn’t have a mean bone in his body and would love nothing more than to find a forever family to spend his golden years beside. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Mater, complete an app and tell us more about you.

She does fine left alone and enjoys lounging on her favorite couch. Roxy is polite with toys, but mostly ignores them and prefers human interaction over the plushies. She also chooses her favorite humans over other dogs, and most likely with cats too. She has not officially been cat tested but has shown zero prey drive and seems to be pretty aloof around other animals. That's not to say she can't make friends. Her laid back, submissive personality is appreciated by other dogs and once acquainted, she will romp around in the yard and shower them with kisses. Then she loses interest and goes back to her person. As far as car rides go, she is terrified in the car and trembles for the majority of the ride but eventually settles in. A yard would be beneficial for her, but mainly she needs a quiet home, in a quiet community, with patient and loving people who will give this insecure pup the time she needs to settle in and become a confident member of the family. If you're looking for a fellow couch potato who shares your lack of enthusiasm at meeting new people... look no further. Your furry friend is in this gorgeous pup named Roxy! If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area, and believe you have the perfect home for Roxy, complete an app and tell us more about you.

He loves his toys, hanging with his dog friends, and has recently discovered that pool days are pretty fantastic too. He hasn’t committed to full-on swimming yet, but lounging on the sun shelf like he owns the place? Absolutely. Charlie is still a puppy, so he’ll need someone willing to continue his basic training. He isn’t completely potty trained yet, but he is smart, learns quickly, and is making great progress. His leash walking is also a work in progress. More than anything, Charlie needs a family who understands that the best relationships aren’t always instant. Sometimes the dog who hangs back at first becomes the one who loves you the hardest once he realizes he is finally safe. If you have a little patience, a soft couch, and room in your life for a gentle soul who just needs someone to believe in him, Charlie may be your boy. Charlie does need a friendly companion dog to help him feel confident, and he has separation anxiety so someone who is home most of the time or a work-from-home situation would be best for him. He's is more of a ladies' man, and kids tend to make him nervous. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Charlie complete an app and tell us more about your family.

Blade is great in the car, crate trained, doing great at learning to walk on leash, enjoys playing with toys, and is just an all-around incredible little dude. His house training is still a work in progress (and it's mostly marking), but in the mean time, he sports a belly band with pride. He loves running around in a fenced yard, so that would certainly be preferable for him. He is a medium-energy boy, loves his zoomies but also knows how to chill with the best of them. Whether you're looking for a buddy to join you on your next adventure or a sweet little companion who would happily curl up in a soft bed and enjoy the good life, Blade is ready for either. He’s been through enough waiting. Now he’s looking for his forever person—the one who will show him just how good life can be. And in return, Blade promises to be the very bestest boy. We are requiring an all-adult home for Blade. If you believe Blade could be your new best friend and you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area, complete an app and tell us more about you.

She gets along with other dogs but is more of a laid-back companion than a playful pup. Her favorite thing is being close to her people and soaking up all the cuddles she can get. Since she is timid upon meeting, if the home has kids they should be older, respectful and know how to approach her calmly. She needs to build a relationship with her people, and learn trust with strangers. We do want an active family for her, one who can take her on daily walks, on adventures with them, and include her as part of the family.

Jackie is crate-trained is currently completing a board-and-train program, where she’s learning excellent leash manners, recall, and a solid place/stay. Since she is in a kennel, we are not 100% sure if she is house trained, but we think it is best if she can be taken out on a consistent schedule.

After everything this little girl has been through, she deserves a family who will give her the love, security and happily-ever-after she’s been waiting for. Could Jackie be your perfect little sidekick?

If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Jackie, complete and app and tell us more about your family.

Toy & Treat Friendly:
She does great sharing toys and treats with both humans and other dog friends.

Low-Key & Loving:
At 13, she’s past the chaotic puppy phase and ready to settle into a cozy, quiet routine.

Ideal Home & Management:
Dolly does have resource-guarding tendencies around her main bowl of food when other dogs are nearby. Because of her possessive food traits with her meal bowl, she simply needs to be fed separately in her own quiet space away from other pets during mealtime. Once dinner is done, she is right back to being her sweet, sharing self!

Dolly is ready to bring so much warmth, loyalty, and nighttime cuddles to her forever family.

Ready to make your bed a little cozier?

Her adoption donation is $125 & will include age-appropriate vaccines, microchip, and spay. Please follow the link to submit an application:

Rhett is also super dog-friendly! He may need a little time to warm up to larger dogs and can be a bit more dominant with other males, so he may do best in a home with a female canine companion. He's friendly with cats, although they make him a little nervous (he's more terrified of them than anything!).

Some other great things about Rhett: Crate trained
Mostly potty trained
Loves treats!
Enjoys running, playing, and wrestling
Loves cuddling in a lap
Super dog-friendly, with a little patience needed when meeting big dogs

Rhett is at that wonderful age where he can enjoy all the fun of being a dog while being past the puppy stage.

Jack is a lover through and through! Personal space? Never heard of it. Jack believes that if you have two hands, at least one should be petting him at all times. He absolutely adores affection, kisses, and cuddles, and his favorite position is flat on his back, belly exposed, patiently waiting for you to get to work!

Because Jack loves his humans so much, his dream home would be with someone who works from home, is retired, or simply spends plenty of time at home. He's not looking for a roommate. He's looking for a best friend!

Toys, Toys & MORE Toys!

Jack takes his toys VERY seriously! He's a fetch enthusiast and a self-appointed squeaker removal specialist. Give him a stuffed toy, and he'll happily demonstrate his impressive ability to locate the squeaker and remove every last bit of fluff. The good news? Jack knows the difference between his toys and your belongings. He's not interested in chewing your shoes or furniture. He's got much more important work to do!

A Smart Little Guy with a Few Opinions!

Jack is crate trained, walks nicely on a leash, and knows how to sit and stay. Although, if we're being fair, he thinks standing on his hind legs is a much more impressive trick than sitting!

He's also a pretty good communicator. Jack will let you know when he'd like to go outside, when he thinks a treat is overdue, or when someone unfamiliar might be approaching. He's got a little watchdog in him, and he's not afraid to use his voice!

And speaking of treats, CHEESE IS LIFE! If you want the key to Jack's heart, you might want to stock up!

Jack's Perfect Forever Home

Jack is doing well with his potty training when kept on a consistent routine, especially being taken outside immediately after meals. He also prefers having his human accompany him outside. After all, why should he go on an adventure alone when you could come along?

Jack gets along with other dog, however, he does believe that all food should rightfully belong to him! He should be fed separate from other pets and may give a quiet warning growl if another dog approaches while he's eating. Giving him his own dining space keeps everyone happy.

While Jack can live with another dog, he would be equally thrilled to be your one and only! In fact, having all the toys, belly rubs, and affection to himself sounds like a pretty fabulous arrangement to him.

The Bottom Line?

Jack is a sweet, affectionate, playful little character who wants nothing more than to be someone's constant companion. He'll make you laugh with his toy-destroying talents, charm you with his hind-leg performances, and melt your heart with his endless requests for love.

He's not asking for much. Just a cozy home, a steady supply of toys, a little cheese, and someone who doesn't mind having a 10-pound shadow following them everywhere.

His adoption donation is $250 & will include age-appropriate vaccines, microchip, and neuter. Please follow the link to submit an application:

Professional Lap Warmer: Clementine absolutely LOVES snuggling with her humans. Give her a cozy lap and some love, and she's one happy little girl!

House Manners Superstar: In her first five days in foster care, she's only had TWO accidents! Pretty impressive for a little girl adjusting to an entirely new world!

Doggy Relationships: Clementine is still figuring out life with other dogs. She's making progress with her foster sister, but she can be protective of her crate, especially when food is involved. Interestingly, she's perfectly happy enjoying treats alongside her foster sister outside of her crate! She may do best with a patient, respectful canine companion or as someone's one-and-only princess.

Walks? Hard Pass! Clementine hasn't quite embraced the whole leash-and-harness concept. In fact, she's absolutely terrified of it! Her current walking strategy involves planting all four paws firmly on the ground and refusing to budge. Her foster family has resorted to carrying her along on walks. Fortunately, at 8 pounds, she's pretty portable!

❤️ A Tender Little Heart: Clementine is still skittish and easily frightened by unfamiliar experiences. She's going to need a patient family who understands that trust takes time and who will celebrate all those little victories along the way. Her foster family says she’s becoming more and more silly as the days go on and it seems she’s got a fun and energetic side of her that she’s just now feeling safe enough to show.

✨ Clementine's Dream Home ✨

We're looking for someone who doesn't need a dog that's ready to conquer the world on day one. Someone who understands that sometimes the biggest accomplishments come in the tiniest packages.

A family willing to give her time, patience, a predictable routine, and plenty of reassurance as she learns that life can be wonderful.

And, of course, a warm lap is absolutely nonnegotiable! ❤️

Clementine has already been through more than any little dog should have to experience. Now it's her turn to discover the good stuff: soft beds, gentle hands, unconditional love, and a family to call her very own.

When she's not busy keeping the puppies company, Ellie May is perfectly content to kick back and enjoy the good life. She's a true lazy old lady who appreciates the finer things, especially cozy naps, cuddles, and FOOD! She's definitely food motivated, so treats are a great way to win her heart.

Ellie May can be a little particular about the men in her life, so she'd do best with someone who understands her boundaries and gives her time to warm up.
