🐾 Meet Terry! 🐾 He’s a sweet terrier mix (maybe Yorkie/Maltese, your guess is as good as ours)! Whatever the mix, he’s ready for his new home! He came to us from the shelter, likely hit by a car. He has since had hip surgery, been neutered, vaccinated, & microchipped. He has healed beautifully and loves to run and play in the yard with his foster siblings (swipe ⬅️👆for a video of his antics) He will always need a little help with steps but he’s a little guy and can easily be scooped up for a lift! He loves to romp and play! A fenced yard would be a plus but daily walks are needed to keep his hip muscles toned. Another playful dog would also be a plus, he’s a social boy.

🙏 Please share his post.
🏡 Let’s find this boy a home of his own.

🧡 In Mexican culture, Día de los Mu***os (Day of the Dead) is a beautiful tradition celebrating the lives of loved ones who have passed.
According to a cherished tradition, our beloved pets are the first spirits to return, on October 27th, before the souls of our human loved ones begin to arrive in the coming days🌈
Families prepare ofrendas (altars) with photographs, candles, bowls of water, favorite treats, toys, and vibrant marigold flowers. Their bright colors and scent are believed to help guide our beloved companions back home.
It's a beautiful reminder that love doesn't end when a life does. Though our pets and loved ones may no longer be physically beside us, they are in our hearts forever. ❤️

Tonight, light a candle, set out their favorite treat, and remember the unconditional love, joy, and happiness they brought into your life.
Forever loved. Forever missed. Never forgotten. 🧡🌼

Share a photo of a beloved pet who has crossed the rainbow bridge in the comments. Let's honor their memory together. 🐾❤️

🐾 SMALL DOGS. BIG HISTORY.

Turns out royalty understood something Compact Canine understands very well:

Little dogs can run the whole house. 👑😂

Queen Victoria was a serious dog lover throughout her life, sharing the royal household with numerous breeds — including small companion dogs and dachshunds.

Her beloved spaniel, Dash, was especially important to the young queen and remains one of history’s most famous royal pets.

So the next time your tiny dog takes the best seat in the house, remember:

It’s not spoiled. It’s royal tradition. 👑

Meet Re*****on aka Remi!

Remi is a senior, female, mini poodle (mix?). She has been with the rescue since April waiting for her fur-ever home. She was surrendered to the shelter by her family because she was “blind, elderly and hard to care for.” The shelter called us to help. No senior deserves to spend their retirement in the shelter. Our foster scooped her up, took her home and Remi began a new chapter in her life. Remi does have age-related cloudy eyes but sees and navigates her world without any issues.

Remi is full of life and is ready for a forever family. She has so much to offer:
🐾She is gentle in spirit.
🥘She loves mealtime!
🐞She is a snuggle bug!
🥱She is crate trained and sleeps through the night.
🚽She has good potty manners.
🥰She is super cute!

Apply now to adopt Remi! She will bring joy to your life!
