The littles were in a mood and it was time to clean the house anyway, so why not let them have a party? Everyone’s a little stir crazy from midday heat these days, and some days you have to just have to throw your hands up and join the chaos.

🛑 Amelia is looking for a hype person!!🛑

Your resume must include:

✔️ Must enjoy dogs with opinions
✔️ Must appreciate aggressive enthusiasm
✔️ Must understand that wrestling is, in fact, a love language
✔️ Must possess snacks, snacks, and did we mention snacks?
✔️ Must be able jump in THEN ask questions (or don’t, she prefers you just go with her flow any day) Are you that friend that will help bury the secrets, or need the date, time, and all the details first? Only the former need apply!

Amelia is a 1-year-old mixed breed powered almost entirely by food, toys, friendship, and questionable amounts of energy. We are pretty sure someone left the redbull accessible. 😉

She LOVES other dogs and absolutely thrives when she has a buddy to chase, wrestle, body slam, and immediately become best friends with afterward. Ever seen that bash brothers chest body slam move? She taught the move. She would also love an active human who wants a dog that is ready for walks, adventures, playtime, and whatever mildly chaotic activity comes next.

Her personal interests include:
🍗 Eating
🎾 Toys
🐶 Friends
🤼 Wrestling
🏃 Going places
🍗 Thinking about eating again

If she could chase the birds, bees, and butterflies, wrestle, be fed treats, and lounge on her friend’s couch she would think she hit the jackpot.

PLOT TWIST!

Underneath all that chaos, Amelia is actually a very functional member of society.

✨ Potty trained
✨ Kennel trained
✨ Leash trained
✨ Fully vaccinated
✨ Spayed

So basically, the hard part is done. You just have to keep up.

Amelia is not looking for a quiet retirement community. She wants a home where life is happening, somebody throws the toy, somebody opens the snack cabinet, and preferably another dog is available for daily smackdowns. She wants a home where memories are being made WITH her.

If you’ve ever said, “I want a dog with personality,” Amelia would like to know how much personality you were prepared for because she brings it all!

Come meet her. Bring snacks. Wear comfortable shoes.

Amelia is available for adoption through Journey Home Rescue. Reach out to them for a chance to meet your new partner in crime. If you’re not prepared to adopt like, share, comment, and follow their page.

Meet Tanana! She’s a 6-month-old Husky mix with big feelings, bigger energy, and a very serious commitment to having a good time. She learned early it’s more fun to bounce. She parades around with her ball like it’s her most prized possession and she’s about to make a touchdown at the Puppy Bowl…and she firmly believes your neck was form fitted to make the perfect snuggle spot (Trust us, it’s the best part of the day)

She loves other dogs and is happy to make friends with just about anyone—big, small, young, old, she’s ready to play, but she takes redirection VERY well. She’s almost potty trained (she will absolutely let you know when it’s time to go), kennel trained, working on her obedience, and learning more every day.

She’s goofy. She’s affectionate. She’s busy. She’s sweet. She’s a little bit chaotic in the way only a happy 6-month-old puppy can be.

Tanana’s perfect home is one who understands that obviously she is cute, come on! But she is still a baby puppy who thrives on structure, supervision, patience, and fun. You must understand she operates like every day is the best day ever, and she firmly believes you should too. She is here to be seen and offers to bring enough confidence for the both of you.

If you want a calm, dignified roommate who quietly observes life from across the room, she’s probably not your girl and you should consider one of the amazing adoptable seniors through our partner rescues. If you want a ridiculous little best friend who will bring boatloads of laughter to your life, make friends everywhere she goes, then melt into you with pure innocence at the end of the day…

come meet her! 🩷🐾

🚽 Potty trained: 9/10
🏠 Kennel trained: 9/10
💌 Affectionate: 100/100 🫶
📏 Size: Currently sitting at 17lbs. She’s a petite little thing and will easily stay less than 35 lbs (that’s being VERY generous for the secret table scrap distributors)
🩻 Fully vetted, up to date on vaccinations, and spayed through our friends and angels Human-Animal Support Coalition
🦮 Leash manners: 2/10 We listen and we don’t judge. She wants to be where the people are! She wants to be a part of them dancing…🎵

Tanana embraces the journey of life. Understanding there is more to every situation, learning and growing into the wise one she is meant to be. One day she will transform into that spirited family matriarch, but for now she is on a mission to just experience everything around her.

Available for adoption through Saint’s Legacy Balto’s Mission. Reach out to them for more information and an application today. Transportation assistance available for the perfect family, so don’t be afraid to smash all those buttons and feed the algorithm for us. Love, Comment, and/or Share are all free things that will help gain more traction and reach her family. Following Saint’s Legacy, Balto’s Mission also ensures you don’t accidentally miss your chance at forever love, so give it a try!

We woke up to the smell of smoke stronger than the last few days, but no movement our direction thankfully. It looks like we are at the tail end. Stay aware. Be respectful.

It’s that time again, your friendly reminder about options. The reality is the mission isn’t going to stop just because you need more time to find a solution. That’s where we come in. Let us take that weight off your shoulders. Have questions? Reach out sooner rather than later. If your orders get canceled please don’t worry, we are flexible.

Think we are too far away? Never! Our furthest has been our amazing little friend from Virginia. Sharing this post far and wide touches more lives than you may realize.

Are you not someone that has to worry about this, but wants us to get in front of your people for more information? We can do that too. Social anxiety and all.

As Sir Francis Bacon said, “knowledge is power.” Reach out, share, talk to your colleagues and friends.
