![[Addams Fam Gomez]](/images/AddamsFamGomez5.jpg)
Breed: Terrier Mix
Age: 8 months
Gender: Male (Neutered)
Gomez is a spunky little water baby. He's started crate training and potty training, and walks pretty well on a leash. He's being fostered in a household with kids, cats, and dogs, and would do well in many types of households. This meaty potato enjoys frolicking in the grass, exploring the great outdoors, and snuggling up on the couch while watching TV. He's still searching for his forever home, could that be with you?
![[Addams Fam Pugsley]](/images/AddamsFamilyPugsley6.jpg)
Breed: Terrier Mix
Age: 8 months
Gender: Male (Neutered)
Pugsley would make a great family dog or a companion foran adult. He is super friendly and enjoys being around his humans, but doesn’t need to be underfoot all day. He is happy to go relax on the back deck or follow the sun as it moves from window to window in the family room. He loves snuggling while we watch TV. He is playful and loves chasing after toys to show off his speed and “hunting” skills to us. He is a medium energy dog who likes to play when you do and can relax when you don’t. He is good with Dogs and kids, but hasn’t been around Cats yet. He is very treat-motivated so he picked up sit, stay, and lie down really fast. At night when he hears the bag of treats being opened, he immediately hops into his crate for bed. He is also trained to sit while his food is set out until he is released. We’re working on not jumping to greet people. He weighs about 50 lbs now.

![[Alfie/Murphy]](/images/AlfieMurphy1.jpg)
Breed: Pomeranian Mix
Age: 19 years
Gender: Male (Neutered)
Murphy is the friendliest, happiest little guy. He’s always excited to see you, greeting you with a constantly wagging tail. He’s pretty easygoing, great with dogs, cats and children, but he also lets you know when there is something he wants. For a senior, he still gets around pretty well. He can handle a few stairs (he’s better at going up than down) and he tuckers out quickly but he will get there if he wants to! He could stand to lose a few pounds but he’s working on that, already down a few! All he really wants to do is sit in your lap and snuggle as long as you keep up the ear scratches. He’d make a great companion for someone who is looking for a quiet, calm senior.
![[Camo]](/images/Camo3.jpg)
Breed: Pekingese Mix
Age: 8 years
Gender: Male (Neutered)
I am a very sweet, chill, easy going type. My foster mom says I have the cutest face and adorable puppy eyes. Let’s not enough talk about how cute my permanent smile is?? I love all people, children, and my foster dog brothers. I am quiet and calm. I don’t bark or whine, unless I need to go potty. I’m house trained when taken out in a timely manner. I sleep through the night in my bed. I enjoy short walks and do great on a a leash, but I’m not a fan of the heat. I’ve been with my new foster family for a little over a week now and I’m starting to feel comfortable enough to show my playful, goofy side??. I love being held and cuddling up with my human for naps. I’m not a fan of being in a crate, but you can trust me not to chew on your favorite things or poop in your shoes. ?? I look forward to meeting my new forever family?

Breed: Chihuahua / Labrador Retriever Mix
Age: 10 months
Gender: Male (Neutered)
Hi, I am Simba. I am told I am part Chihuahua and part Labrador Retriever. Based on my age and current size, I am probably going to weigh 30 to 50 lbs. as an adult. I am crate trained, housetrained, and am working on my leash skills. I get along with other dogs and love kids. I like a ton of attention and would be happy with a big family or as the only pet. Love is all I need. I am a fun-loving active boy who is waiting patiently for my forever home.
![[Chance]](/images/Chance3.jpg)
Breed: Cattle Dog Mix
Age: 13 months
Gender: Male (Neutered)
Chance is a loving cattle dog mix and at less than 50 lbs, he’s a great size! He was found as a stray, and of all the dogs we’ve fostered, he is one of the most appreciative of being in a safe, loving home. He gets along well with other dogs, LOVES people, and even doesn’t mind the cat! He’s a chill dude (medium energy level) who enjoys walks but really likes to just hang out with you. He is housebroken, walks well on a leash, and does fine resting in his crate. We really enjoy having him here!! Would you like to give Chance his forever home? You won’t regret it!!!
![[Chester]](/images/Chester2.jpg)
Breed: Great Pyrenees Mix
Age: 5 months
Gender: Male
Chester was found wandering a country road and his owners never came looking for him. He is recovering nicely from all that and is now a sweet, loving guy who is looking for his forever home. He just loves to romp with the big dogs and little dogs. He is sweet with everyone he meets from any age, especially children. He also walks well on leash and does very well in the house. Although we don't know for sure, we believe he is pure-bred and will get more handsome by the day. He won't last long so better hurry and come meet this boy in person!

![[Daisy the Lab]](/images/Daisy6.jpg)
Breed: Labrador Retriever Mix
Age: 14 years
Gender: Female (Spayed)
Our darling, smiling Daisy is now a senior. Her favorite activity, adoption day, was canceled for 2020. She was a socialite at adoption events. She is doing well in foster care. She likes most dogs and is ok around two of our dogs but does not tolerate being around our blue tick coonhound. Daisy is not the kind of dog who ever wanted to cuddle on the couch--she is content to be in the room sleeping on the floor or in a different room as long as she knows you are nearby. She has arthritic pain in her hind legs, but has medication. She has separation anxiety and would need a home where there are other dogs or humans at all times, but would do best with older children and adults.
![[Dalie]](/images/Dallie.jpg)
Breed: Border Collie Mix
Age: 6 years
Gender: Male
Dalie is a Border Collie mix. This sweet girl needs a new home because her adopter is going into an assisted living facility that will not take in a large dog. Dalie was adopted from a shelter in New Mexico in 2017. She loves to go on walks and walks well on a leash. She responds to some verbal commands and has had some professional training. She is house trained, has never been crated, and gets along great with other dogs and the cats she has met so far.

Breed: Beagle / Beagle Mix
Age: 8 months
Gender: Female (Spayed)
Darla's Mary Ann, now renamed Jessie is being returned to the rescue because her adopter is unable to care for her any longer. More information to follow.
PREVIOUS DESCRIPTION: Mary Ann is a born leader and very independent. She loves attention and is always ready to play. Darla and her family were rescued from Louisiana. One of our rescue partners was notified about a nursing mom who was in bad shape by a nice lady (Jessica) who saw her looking for food along a rural highway. Jessica left food and water every day in a central spot well off the road in a heavily wooded area. Finally, after weeks of watching and waiting, Jessica found the pups! Poor Darla birthed her babies right off a busy road in a culvert. Her nightmare ended right there. Darla’s 10 beautiful puppies were born around 9/13/21 and their future is now bright! Our rescue partner tells us that Darla is very sweet and has been a great mom. She also gets along with the cats in her foster family’s home. The babies are ready for their forever homes right now and Darla will be available for adoption once she is spayed.
