Meet the 8 year-old papillon who is looking desperately for someone to foster him! Although his life has not been the best, he continues to take everything with grace and stride. Louie is not potty-trained, and will need someone versed in helping little dogs with some training. At times, he will need to wear a belly-band to reduce “marking’ as he is not yet neutered. We will make sure he is neutered while in foster care. We feel it’s very important for Prince Louie to be in a foster home rather than the shelter environment due to his needs.We also hope that the foster home would be a foster-to-adopt home. Prince Louie enjoys being held, and being with his people constantly. He loves car rides, sleeping on the bed with his folks, being in laps, and being carried around. As long as you are with him, he is happy! Prince Louie has a bit of a sore mouth with some work being done, so it is important that he have wet food for now, preferably mixed with water, as his water intake has been less than ideal. Prince Louie is an excellent dog, very “chill” and laid back. Big dogs tend to love him, as do little dogs and kitties too. He is very accustomed to being around other dogs, and would do best in a home with other furry friends. Prince Louie enjoys his time outside, and likes to romp in the grass. He likes to be at your heels and follow you everywhere!
We plan on being a bit particular about Louie’s foster home, but are welcoming foster application on his, and hope that you call the shelter today to make an appointment to meet him. We have ordered a front-hanging sling for the lucky foster who has the time and patience to spend with Louie, as at only 4 pounds, he would love to be close to you and be carried around!
Prince Louie will need frequent brushing and regular grooming due to his coat.
*Please understand that belly bands are recommended not just for your floors and furniture, but also for training purposes. Where he is not neutered, if he marks in your house it will leave a scent, which will in turn make an un-neutered male mark again.*

Handsome. Charming. Silly. Playful. These are just a few of the words that describe Oscar. He is three years old, and hoping to go home soon to a big yard, a family that loves him, and someone who is willing to have him in their life forever. He is very loveable and he LOVES playing fetch with tennis balls and getting tons of affections. If you would like to learn more about Oscar, give the shelter a call! We will tell you all about him. He seems to do ok with a couple of the other dogs at the shelter, but would encourage/require a safe outside meet and greet with your dog and him prior to him going home without fencing in between them.

Abby is a one year old female lab mix who is very timid with strangers, but also very sweet. We would be seeking a family who is patient in allowing her to warm up and come out of her shell so she can be the dog that she deserves to be!

Duqui is a 6-month old gorgeous female Schnauzer mix with a unique brindle pattern. She is timid at first but when she comes around she is very super sweet.She may need to be separated or appropriately supervised sat meal time around other pups as she tends to be a little food aggressive. We will need a family who is willing to work with her on this behavior.

How stinkin’ sweet! Meet Lais, a 3-month old mix who would love to pitter-patter her little paws all over your heart. She is very friendly, likes to jump, is full of puppy energy, and is all around very sweet! She might need supervision or proper behavioral training around meal times if she is with other dogs. Our dogs can’t tell us what they’ve been through, but she may have had to fight for her kibble in the past.
