3. Sugar
Adult · Female · Chihuahua / Pug / Mixed · 20 mi from Layton




Meet Sugar! Sugar is an 8-year-old Pug/Chihuahua mix weighing about 25 pounds, and she's a little sweetheart who just needs someone willing to let her blossom at her own pace. Sugar is a shy girl who takes time to warm up to new people, but once she feels safe, she'll become your little shadow and a loyal companion.Sugar is happiest lounging on the couch with her favorite people. She's a low-energy girl who doesn't ask for much beyond a cozy spot, some companionship, and plenty of snuggles. She's also a very well-mannered houseguest, house-trained, and crate-trained (although she'd much rather be out enjoying your company!).Sugar gets along wonderfully with other dogs and is also fine with cats, whom she mostly ignores.
Read more about Sugar
She can be startled by unfamiliar noises and may bark at visitors, but she'll generally keep her distance until she feels comfortable. Because of her timid nature, a home with young children probably isn't the best fit.One thing to know about Sugar is that the outside world can be intimidating. She's nervous on a leash and will need a patient adopter willing to help her build confidence through gentle, positive experiences. She's treat-motivated, which should help with continued training and encouragement.Sugar has had a big change in her life after spending four years in a home, and she's understandably feeling a little uncertain. But even when she's scared, she continues to show that she wants to trust people. Once she does, you'll discover her adorable little prance when she's excited and her sweet habit of gently reaching out with a paw when you stop petting her, as if to say, "Excuse me, I'm not finished!"Sugar is looking for a quiet, mellow home with a patient person who understands that love and trust sometimes take a little time. In return, she'll give you a devoted little shadow and a whole lot of love. ❤️Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal.

Young (8 months) · Male · Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat) · 39 mi from Layton






Who has four legs, one floppy ear, spots, and is ready to leap into your arms - I mean home? It's me, Tobleroni!
Read more about Tobleroni
I am a six-month-old Australian Cattle Dog and am looking for a family that can help me navigate this big world. I am still a little nervous with new sounds and things, but after the initial shock of new sights, I leap headfirst with excitement. I am learning quickly what I can and can't rush into. For example, I know I can't rush at the cat, and now we are nice playful pals, but I can rush towards the ball and play fetch! I am really fast in the backyard and love to run around with other dogs. I also love the support of humans as I learn so many new things!
I am learning some basics, like leash training, sit, off, and come. I definitely need to keep learning because I get pets and treats when I do. It also helps me use up energy and use my mind, which is important for me since I have a lot of energy and am pretty smart. I really like other dogs, but since this is all new to me, I need my own space for my toys and food at home. I love my kennel and only bark in there if I need to alert people to a frightening presence, like the mailman. I would do well as an only dog or with others, or even with a dog-savvy cat! Although I am a puppy and like to hop around, I am still a softy at heart and would do well with kids.
I can't wait to meet you! Apply today.

12. Fledermaus
Adult · Male · French Bulldog · 20 mi from Layton




Meet Fledermaus! A Little Frenchie with a Big Presence ❤️Fledermaus is a 4.5-year-old, 19-pound French Bulldog with a sweet personality, a funny little face, and a whole lot of love to give. He enjoys naps, treats, leisurely strolls around the yard, and rubbing up against his favorite people for affection. He also has a way of staring right into your soul that is equal parts hilarious and adorable!Fledermaus is looking for a special home with someone who understands that, like many French Bulldogs, he has some ongoing health needs. He takes daily medications, eats prescription food, and requires regular veterinary care to keep him comfortable and healthy.
Read more about Fledermaus
His adopter should be prepared for continued vet visits, consistent daily care, and the possibility that his needs may change over time.Fledermaus has had surgery to open his nasal passages but remains prone to sinus infections. He also has urinary crystals that require lifelong prescription food and monitoring, an enlarged heart managed with daily medication, and chronic eye problems that require daily eye drops. He has some vision loss, along with a head tilt and occasional moments of seeming to space out that may indicate a neurological issue. His future family will need to stay on top of his care and work with their veterinarian to address any new concerns.Personality-wise, Fledermaus is a pretty easygoing little dude. He warms up quickly to people but generally prefers to observe new visitors rather than make a big fuss. He's quiet, does well in a crate, rides nicely in the car, and enjoys a low-key lifestyle. Walks are leisurely affairs, and sometimes he decides he'd rather not go any farther! House training has been a challenge, so his adopter will need patience and a plan for helping him with consistent potty routines.He generally gets along well with other dogs. Sometimes he'll engage in a little wrestling session, but most of the time he's happy to do his own thing. He could live with other dogs or be an only pet. He would ignore cats, too. Fledermaus gets overly excited about treats and may bite when trying to grab food from people's hands, even when no treat is present. For this reason, he is not recommended for a home with children.Fledermaus would thrive in a calm, predictable home with an adopter who has experience with dogs requiring medical care and in particular, brachycephalic dogs and is prepared to manage his ongoing medical care. He needs someone who will keep up with his daily treatments, recognize when something seems off, and make his comfort and well-being a priority. In return, you'll get a funny, affectionate little companion who loves being near his people, enjoys the simple things in life, and will happily make you laugh with his expressions and quirky noises.Fledermaus isn't asking for a perfect home. He's asking for a committed one. If you have the experience, patience, and resources to give this special little Frenchie the care he needs, he may be the perfect match for you!Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis.

13. Quesito
Adult (4 years) · Female · Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat) · 39 mi from Layton










Say Cheese!
Stop what you're doing and meet Quesito! This stunning girl is a 2 year old Chihuahua, whom we affectionately call Cheese. She earned this nickname by
1. Being happy and smiley ALL the time
2. She LOVES cheese (clearly)
Quesito landed herself in the shelter somehow, but that never got her down. She is smiley/happy girl that loves everyone! She bonds hard with her people, and wants to be with you on all your adventures!
She is potty trained and crate trained, although she would rather be cuddled up in bed with you! She does great with dogs and cats. She loves going on walks, playing with toys, and loves chasing after a tennis ball!
Read more about Quesito
She weighs in at about 20lbs, but she should be more like 15; so she probably needs to lay off the cheese a bit! But other than her love for food; this girl is honestly easy going and so loving!

LET THE HOLIDAYS BEGIN!
Hi everyone, my name is Blaise and I am so excited to introduce myself to you!
Halloween is just a few days away and that kicks off the Holiday Season for the next
couple of months. My wish is to find my forever family so we can spend the holidays getting
to know each other and settle into my new life. Let me tell you a little bit about myself.
I am a 10 to 12 months old (best guess) male terrier mix and I weigh in at about 10 pounds.
My foster Mom thinks I may be Westie (West Highland) terrier mix but regardless of what
kind of mix I am how can you not love my cute little expressive face and those ears? My
Read more about Blaise
hair is pretty soft and I am getting used to being brushed. I am working really hard on my
house training and doing very well if kept on a schedule so a family that will continue my training will help me to be the bestest boy I can be. I have not been around kids yet, but I have never meet a stranger. Kids over 10 would be fine! I have figured out the routine here in my foster home and I sleep quietly through the night in my kennel. I love playing with the other dogs and I am even learning to play with toys but my favorite is chewing on the bones.
I am so happy that I even smile, that's right a big cheesy grin! The first time I smiled at foster Mom she thought I was snarling but nope, it is a real smile! Foster Mom says I like to talk to you as well, and why not? I have a lot to say. When I watch TV I tilt my head from side to side trying to figure out the plot of the show. I am pretty smart if I do say so myself so if you are looking for a quick study that is loyal as can be I may be the man for the job.

I am also a secret athlete—if you throw a soft plushy toy, I will happily retrieve it for you and I frequently get the zoomies.I get along with other dogs and cats, once I've had time to settle in and feel comfortable. At first, I can be nervous and a little snappy until I know they are friends not foe.
Read more about Shay
While I am a total cuddle bug indoors, the big wide world outside still feels pretty scary to me right now. Every tiny noise makes me look over my shoulder, so I am still working hard on my outdoor potty training. Because the outside world intimidates me, I need a patient adopter who understands the 3-3-3 rule of dog rescue. I don't love to be left alone for long and will cry when left, so a home without shared walls would be best. With a predictable routine, a furry sibling to show me the ropes, and a little time to decompress, I know my confidence will bloom!If you are looking for a loyal, plushy-retrieving shadow to keep you company, I’m ready to meet you!Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis.

19. Luella
Puppy (2 months 20 days) · Female · Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat) · 39 mi from Layton






Hi everyone! We’re Aegon and Luella, two adorable
12-week-old Australian Shepherd mixes
! We were told our dad is most likely a Labrador, so we may have a little Lab mixed into our personalities, too!
Meet Luella
Beautiful brown and black female with a big personality!
Luella is our playful little explorer who wants to be right in the middle of all the action! She loves exploring her surroundings, wrestling with her furry friends, and keeping everyone entertained. She’s one of the bigger puppies in the litter and is estimated to weigh around
50–65 pounds
when fully grown.
What You Should Know About Both Pups:
12 weeks old

A Note About Cats:
Aegon may do well in a home with a cat with proper introductions and supervision. Luella, on the other hand, is a little
too interested
in feline friends right now, so a cat-free home would be the safer choice for her unless her behavior can be reliably managed.
These sweet babies are smart, playful, affectionate, and already making great progress with their training. They’re ready to find families who will continue helping them grow into amazing lifelong companions!

Other dogs? LOVE THEM!
Cats? NO PROBLEM!
Kids? ABSOLUTELY!
❤️ People? THE MORE LOVE, THE BETTER!
Snickers is the kind of girl who makes you wonder how someone so wonderful could possibly still be looking for a home.
At 3 years old, she's past those wild baby puppy days but still young enough to enjoy all the adventures, playtime, and wonderful memories her forever family has waiting for her.
And the best part?
Snickers is FULLY VETTED and ready to go HOME!
No waiting around. No long checklist of things to finish. Just one beautiful girl ready to start the next chapter of her life with a family who will love her as much as she'll love them.
Snickers isn't asking for a castle, a pot of gold, or anything magical.
She just wants a family to call her own. ❤️
And honestly? We think whoever adopts this girl is going to feel like they won the lottery!
Unicorns are rare. German Shepherd unicorns are even rarer. Don't let this one get away!

Bringing a dog home to your cat
Tell the rescue about your cat: their age and how they react to dogs. A dog who has lived calmly with one cat may still want to chase a cat that runs.
Introduce them slowly. Keep them apart for the first few days and swap bedding so they get used to each other's scent, then let them meet with the dog on a leash, rewarding calm behavior.
Make sure the cat can always get somewhere the dog can't reach, like a high shelf or a room behind a baby gate, and keep the litter box and cat food out of the dog's way.
