Polly, aka Cami, found her way to the Shelter after being picked up, on a hot summer day, running aimlessly down the road. We are guessing that she is a Yorkie mix, approximately 3 to 4 years old. Her hair was completely matted upon arrival, so we had to trim her entire coat. It will all grow back nicely with time. She recently spent a week with our trainer where she was evaluated and received some very productive in-home training. Upon evaluation, we learned that this sweet little girl needs a home without children, loves woman, but is cautious of most men. Our trainer recommends that we place Polly with an adult couple or single person with a low-key lifestyle. Polly is cute, funny, and thoroughly enjoys sitting on your lap while getting lots of love and affection (and she deserves it).

Introducing Graham Cracker, a seven-year-old Standard Dachshund with a spunky personality. Originally rescued from the south, Graham spent the last five years being spoiled in his loving home. Unfortunately, his guardian fell ill and passed away, leaving Graham with a lot of questions. A very unique guy, we were told that he loves to watch TV, especially westerns.

Always ready to go for a ride, Graham Cracker is waiting for his new life to arrive.

Chico is a mellow, eleven-year-old Chihuhua with a brand new smile. Recently back from a trip to the dentist, Chico is looking good from head to toe. He arrived at The Ark a bit gloomy because his owner had fallen too ill to care for him, but he’s beginning to perk with esperanza (hope). He loves going for leisurely walks, soothing belly rubs, and helping out in the kitchen. Please come give this charming little guy a new casa.
