Captain Swig, Reporting for Duty! ⛵️

If you’ve ever dreamed of a mellow first mate who loves sunshine, gentle breezes, and long naps on deck… meet Swig, the sweetest senior sailor you’ll ever find. Since joining his foster home, Swig has fully embraced the boat life lifestyle. He’s a natural.

⚓️ Swig’s Boat Life Highlights:
• Perfectly house trained
• Can be left alone uncrated for long stretches
• LOVES his crate when he wants a cozy nap
• Off leash recall? Shockingly good
• Loves all people he meets
• Enjoys baths, exploring, and quiet adventures

💛 Medical Notes:
Swig does have progressed hip and spine arthritis and a soft tissue sarcoma, but he’s still full of joy, mobility, and personality. Regular exercise in foster has already helped him move more comfortably. He’s the definition of resilient.
🐶 Important:
Swig needs to be the only dog in the home — he’s not a fan of sharing his space with other pups. But with people? He’s a total sweetheart.

Whether he’s lounging on the boat deck, cruising the water, or just snoozing by your feet, Swig is the kind of dog who fills your days with calm, comfort, and companionship.

Mooreen (formerly Amber) is THRIVING with her foster family! ✨🐮

We could not be more obsessed with this girl’s glow up. According to her foster family, Mooreen is hands down the easiest, most well mannered house guest they’ve ever had.

💛 House manners of an absolute angel:
• Fully housebroken
• Calm, quiet sleeper through the night
• Crate optional — she’s perfect loose or cozy in her crate
• Doesn’t jump on furniture unless invited
• Even waits politely at doorways like the refined lady she is

Mooreen is equally thrilled to go on long walks or curl up for long naps. As long as she’s with you, she’s content. She explores new spaces with gentle curiosity and will nicely sniff around before coming back the moment she’s called.

On walks she strolls at your pace, doesn’t react to other animals, and looks adorable doing it.
And treats? She takes them like a delicate little lady. Give this girl 24 hours in your home and suddenly you’ve got a wiggly snuggle bug glued happily to your side. She loves her people deeply and shows it in the sweetest ways.

Meet Hollander! 🌟

This playful pup is full of personality, energy, and love — and he’s been charming everyone from volunteers to visitors to entire crowds at our Mega Dog Adoption Festival.

Hollander plays rough and rowdy, but he’s also wonderfully social. He's the kind of dog who loves having a canine buddy who can match his enthusiasm. With people, he’s all wiggles and belly up flops.

Hollander is:
💛 Silly, sweet, and affectionate
💛 Great with people — even crowds and kids
💛 Social with dogs and loves rowdy play
💛 A fun adventure buddy in the car, on walks, or in the yard

Hollander is still a young dog learning the world, so he’ll benefit from a family who can help set him up for success: exercise, structure, and patience.

Meet Azizi! He's a 1 year old goofball who arrived as a stray and has been charming everyone ever since! 💛🐾

Azizi recently discovered the magic of a pup cup and we’re pretty sure his eyes grew three sizes on the spot. The photo says it all.

When he’s not losing his mind over whipped cream, Azizi is the happiest boy. He’s easy to leash, loves greeting staff, spends his office days lounging, and being a total gentleman. He even had a big adventure day with a foster and was amazing with kids, gentle with treats, and a superstar at fetch! Azizi can be selective about his dog friends, but with people? He’s all heart.

This lovable goof is ready for a forever family who appreciates a fun loving pup with a huge personality.

Raya a.k.a "Baby" is living her best life. 💖🌞

From soaking up the sun in the pool or enjoying some frozen peanut butter treats, it's safe to say she's making herself right at home with her new family.

Do you want to make a difference in a pet's life? Swing by PRC from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday thru Saturday. You could just find your lifelong adventure buddy.

Can you say three-peat?! 🥹🐕

For the third year in a row, we’ve been able to clear an entire kennel because of your support at the Mega Dog Adoption Festival.

Every empty kennel means a dog is now starting a new chapter in their lives. ❤️

Thank you for your continued support at the Mega Dog Adoption Festival.
