UPDATE "Hayden": We can’t believe it’s been a year. We named him Bandit and he is the best and best loved dog! He loves to run, fetch, sniff everything, walk on the leash, act a little crazy and take long, leisurely naps. We couldn’t ask for a better friend. I sent photos under separate emails.

Take care,
Myra

Whisper is a sweet male kitten who came to us with another kitten and is hoping to find a loving home of his own! He loves chasing bell balls, lounging in sunny windows, and playing with his fellow kittens. He has also lived with dogs, so he already knows a little about sharing his world with canine friends! If you're looking for a playful, happy little companion who also enjoys a cozy window nap, Whisper may be the perfect kitten for you!

Sapphire is a sweet 6-month-old Border Collie mix who came to us through no fault of her own after her family experienced financial hardship. She is friendly, affectionate, and full of puppy energy, although she can be a little nervous at first. She has lived with both dogs and cats and is said to be crate trained. She has not lived with children, so we’re still learning what kind of home will be the best fit for her. Sapphire is young, loving, and ready for someone who will give her the patience, guidance, and love she deserves. Could you be her forever family?

Idol is a huge lap puppy with a very important mission: getting into your lap! This eager Lab/Beagle boy is determined to be as close to his people as possible. He’ll wiggle, wiggle, wiggle until he has officially secured his spot in your personal space. Once he’s being held, though, he settles down and enjoys the cuddles. Idol doesn’t care that he’s not exactly a tiny lap dog—he has a lap, he has a mission, and he intends to use both! If you’re looking for a loving, enthusiastic cuddle buddy with absolutely no concept of personal space, Idol is your guy!

UPDATE "Apple Blossom": She has been doing amazing! She fits in well with her doggy cousins and her human one! She is the biggest snug bug, attention-seeking, and adventure-seeking dog. Her name is now Amoreena. Her best friend in the whole wide world is my boyfriend; every morning we are woken up by a black flash running around the bed, so excited for us to be awake. She is truly a joy to love.

At just 8 months old, this adorable Beagle/Lab mix has already proven what a loving little girl she is. She wiggles from head to toe when meeting new people and has a heart full of love to give! She was found as a stray with her puppies, and now that her momma duties are behind her, it’s her turn to be spoiled. She’s ready for a family to love her, cherish her, and give her the happy life she deserves!
