DEWEY IS READY FOR HIS HAPPY ENDING! From surviving on scraps to dreaming of a forever family, Dewey’s journey is one that will stay with us forever. 🥹❤️

When Dewey came into our care, he was severely underweight and in heartbreaking condition. We may never know what his past looked like or what led him to the point of eating trash just to survive, but we do know one thing: Dewey’s future is going to be filled with love.

Thanks to an amazing foster home, Dewey has made incredible progress! He’s gained enough weight to be neutered, and now this handsome boy is officially READY FOR ADOPTION! 🎉

So, what’s life like with Dewey? Let us tell you!

🐶 A certified people-lover! Dewey absolutely adores his humans. If you’re looking for a dog who loves pets, cuddles, and being close to his people, he’s your guy!

🧸 Toy enthusiast extraordinaire! Dewey loves stuffed toys and will happily empty the entire toy bin in search of the PERFECT one. Who needs a personal shopper when you have paws?

🐾 Dog AND cat friendly! Dewey gets along wonderfully with other dogs and even cats, making him a great addition to a home with furry friends.

🎓 A smart cookie! He knows “sit” and “paw,” and he’s excellent in his crate. Seriously, this boy doesn’t even make a peep!

🚗 Road trip ready! Dewey does well on car rides, so he’s happy to be your copilot on your next adventure.

🛋️ Play hard, nap harder! At just 2 years old, Dewey still has plenty of playful puppy energy. But in true pittie fashion, he also appreciates a good, long couch nap snuggled up with his favorite people.

We don’t know everything Dewey has endured. We can only imagine the hardships this sweet boy faced before he found his way to safety. But despite it all, Dewey has so much love to give. He isn’t holding onto the past. He’s ready to embrace a future filled with belly rubs, stuffed toys, cozy naps, and a family who will never let him wonder where his next meal is coming from again. ❤️

Dewey has fought so hard for his second chance. Now, he just needs someone to give him his forever.

This handsome 3year old French Bulldog weighs in at a hefty 42 pounds… or maybe he’s actually a gremlin?! 😂 Either way, one thing is for sure: this boy has PERSONALITY! 🐾❤️

Meech is full of love, s***k, and silly charm. He gets along great with all three of his foster siblings and seems to do well with children, too! He’s a social little guy who just wants to be part of the fun. 🥰

His favorite things? Belly rubs, playtime, attention, and soaking up all the love you have to give! He’s also crate trained & house broken🙌

He’s not asking for much — just a family who will see how special he is and give him the forever home he truly deserves. ❤️

🐶 Could this lovable little meatball be just what you were searching for? 🏡💙

🥹 If there ever was an emotional support cat… it's Ozzy.

There's GOT to be a family out there looking for a ridiculously affectionate, outgoing, stage-five clinger who wants to love them 24/7!

At 5 months old, Ozzy is the last of 14 kittens still waiting for a home. 💔

He and the other kittens were found discarded in dumpsters, sick and left to die. Thankfully, they were rescued, and one by one, the others found loving families. But somehow, Ozzy is still waiting.

Maybe he doesn't have the flashiest coat, but we promise his personality more than makes up for it!

❤️ Follows his people EVERYWHERE
🐾 Nonstop purrs, biscuits and cuddles
🥹 Wants to be as close to you as physically possible
🐱 Playful, outgoing and great with cats and dogs!

After everything he's been through, Ozzy deserves to be someone's whole world. ❤️

Are you looking for a pup thats good with other dogs, cats, and kids? Patty is the pup for you!
Patty is just 3 months old and doing well in her foster home and making fast friends with everyone she meets. She does well in her crate and settles quickly. Patty is learning "sit" and walking nicely on leash. Shes a smart girl who is ready to learn and explore the world.

Remember when I said Rocket Pop was the last of the Alani litter? 🙈🤦‍♀️ Scratch that 🤦‍♀️
Guava is still available! 🤣 (sorry Guava!)
Guava is 2.5 months old. She is the sassy pup of the litter and does well with other dogs but she would currently do best in a home with older children. Shes still learning her proper puppy manners and thinks jumping when excited is a fun game.
Guava is a supermutt, a mix of many breeds, but should remain small - small/medium when full grown.
