Moxie’s Christmas Wish 🎄✨
While other pups may dash through the snow, Moxie takes her time. She’s a gentle soul—skittish and timid, with a heart that blooms slowly but beautifully.

This holiday season, Moxie is hoping for a home that understands her quiet ways. She needs a tall, secure fence to feel safe, and a confident dog friend to show her the ropes. With the right companion, Moxie begins to trust, to explore, and to shine.

She’s smart, stunning, and full of potential—just waiting for someone who sees past the shyness and believes in the magic of patience. Her perfect match will celebrate the small victories: a tail wag, a soft nuzzle, a moment of courage.

If you’re the kind of person who believes in Christmas miracles and second chances, Moxie’s waiting under the tree… not for presents, but for love. ❤️

Dear Santa,

I’ve been a very good boy this year. I sit politely for treats, I wag my tail at everyone I meet, and I haven’t chewed a single slipper (okay, maybe just one… but it was very chewable).

I don’t want much—just a warm home, a soft bed, and a human who thinks my speckled coat is beautiful and my goofy grin is perfect. I promise to be loyal, snuggly, and occasionally hilarious.

I heard you’re good at making wishes come true. So if you have room on your sleigh for one more miracle, could you help me find my forever family?

Love,

Judge

🎅🐾 Dear Santa,
It was so nice to meet you this weekend! I tried really hard to sit still and smile big—did you notice? I even wore my fancy red outfit with the fuzzy trim.

I only have one wish this year: a forever home. One with cozy blankets, gentle hands, and someone who thinks I’m the best gift they’ve ever received.

I’ve been a very good girl. Just ask the rescue team—they’ll tell you I give the sweetest snuggles and make everyone feel loved.

Love,
Merci 💖

She met Santa this weekend and couldn’t stop smiling—because she knew exactly what to ask for: a family to love her forever.

Merci’s been waiting patiently, and she’s as sweet as they come. Snuggly, gentle, and full of holiday cheer… she’s ready to light up someone’s life.

Could you be her Christmas miracle? 💖🐾
