 MIA AND TINY

 These "ladies of a certain age" are on the hunt for the perfect retirement village. Their requirements? Plush furnishings, a wide selection of ornamental throw pillows, a fully stocked game and snack room, and basic cable. Shouldn't be too hard to find, right?

Tiny and Mia are a spritely six-year-old bonded pair - they bicker like sisters, groom like lovers, and play like best friends. Mia, the spicy chi latte, has some opinions. Tiny, the ewok chorkie, *might* have opinions, but mostly she just agrees with everything Mia says. They both enjoy a good spot of outdoor sunshine, but are less explorers and more "home is where the heart, and body, and food, and cozy bed is" types.

These two are looking for a home together where they can snack and snooze in style. They're crate trained, and housetrained when kept on a consistent schedule. They're comfortable cohabitating with other canines, but don't expect this duo to become a triad.

PENELOPE

 Meet Penelope, the sweetest soul you’ll meet. She is approximate 8 years old, 12lbs and as a Wheaten Terrier mix (she does not shed). She loves hanging out with you on the couch, exploring the yard, taking a nap while you work or wandering the neighborhood in her wheelchair.

Penelope was found as a stray and brought to the local shelter, we don’t know much of her backstory but she clearly was someone’s pet until they dropped her as she enjoys human company and is so loving and well behaved.

She cannot use her backlegs due to (likely) IVDD but that does not stop her: she took to her wheelchair right away and let’s everyone know how happy she is. Having a paralyzed dog is not as scary as you think: the adjustment is easy and we are happy to guid you through it. Penelope deserves a great home and we hope that you are it and fall in love with her as much as we did!

She is of course spayed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. She need some help to pee: we are happy to show you how to.

CHANEL
When people hear “Chanel”, they think of expensive luxury and our sweet Chanel is ready to make you feel like the richest human on earth! She is this season’s hottest find! Heck! She is a hot find for EVERY season! This stylish supermom not only raised her own puppies but an orphaned set of newborns! She gives the sweetest kisses and is smart as a whip! She’s a gorgeous 2 year old staffy/pitty/supermutt mix deserves the same happily ever after that her puppies got! She weighs in at 57lbs and is up to date on all her medical needs! She loves humans and kids, is doing great with her leash training, is house trained and willing to model all the hottest lewks! We believe Chanel would do best as an only dog and be aware of her jumping skills! She can jump up and hug you like a champ but can also clear a 4 foot fence! So, if you want to be IN this summer and are ready to be the envy of all- you gotta get Chanel!

Thank you so much to the Petfinder Foundation for providing an Emergency Medical Grant for Coupe's surgery.

The money was used to pay for Coupe’s surgery to remove a mass on his adrenal gland, in the hope it would help reduce his ailments.

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

We successfully raised the rest of the needed funds and moved forward with the procedure.






​Thank you to Babe's Hope for

helping with Coupe's Surgery.

  Getting a dog cross-country is no easy task, getting 20 or more at once is a labor of love! We send our dogs rescued from shelters and homeless situations in Oklahoma, to New York and New Jersey, where there are many more people to give them homes.
Will you help us get a cargo van to move these dogs to their new homes? 
Our goal is $75,000.
Thank you for your consideration!
We're grateful!
