Handsome Jackson

This handsome old man is Jackson. Handsome Jackson is a 12 year old toy poodle who weighs 12 pounds. He is house trained and really mellow overall. He absolutely loves to lounge around the house on any couch, lap, or bed he can. He loves to be in the same room with his people-- he doesn't like to be left alone and will bark a bit if he doesn't know where you are. He would be a sweet companion for someone who is home a lot.

Summer

What season is this? Summer? Well then, let’s get busy with an application so Summer(AKA me) can enjoy the summer with a new family! My 2nd birthday is coming up and a new home would be the best present ever.

According to my DNA test I’m part cattle dog and boxer! My foster parents say they
“love me to pieces.” Not sure what that means, but I think it’s a good thing. I’m a pretty,young girl who loves to be petted and weigh 35-40 pounds. I’m housebroken, crate-trained, have all my shots and spayed. I’m ready to go!

Rufus

Do you like big mutts with huge smiles? If so, I am your man! Weighing in at 85 lbs of love I am the largest lap dog you could ever hope to meet. Yep, you read that right! I just love to sit in my foster dad's lap. It was love at first sight for me.

At just 3 years old, I am in doggie adolescence. Like all adolescents I need patience and consistent training to mature into the awesome dog I am destined to be.

Jingles

My name is Jingles and I am as sweet as they come! I am a petite little lady, weighing in at around 8 lbs. My foster mom says I am gorgeous. Cuddling, running and playing tug of war with my doggie friends are some of the things I love most. I am super fast and know how to dig my way under a fence so I need to be supervised in the yard. I know how to use a doggie door so unless you have a secure yard or are ready to go out with me, the doggie door should probably stay locked. When it is dinner time, I go straight to my crate. I will stay in my crate when you go out if you feel it is necessary and will even sleep in there. I must confess that I much prefer to sleep on your bed and keep your feet warm though.

Zane

Zane is a very good boy who was living outside but has adapted well to being indoors. He's enjoying regular meals, a warm safe place to sleep, and does not tire of receiving cheek scratches and pets. He's got a luxuriously soft coat that is a pleasure to pet. His favorite is being curry combed and melting into a puddle. He likes getting pets in between bites of his food and sometimes expresses his opinion about his food.

Wewe

Wewe goes by We for short (as in "the wee one") because this sweet boy was once a teeny, tiny kitten... and no one knew that the friendly bit of white fluff would one day grow into such a BIG BOY. We're talking 22 lbs of affectionate, chatty, hunka-chunka furball.
