this one was hard 🤍
lately i’ve found myself getting more anxious with adoptions… when they fit so perfectly into my home, it’s scary to take that leap & trust it’ll be just as good somewhere else.

but the second i walked into Cashew’s new home, i just knew.
this is what i picture for them. this is what i hope for every single time.

the sweetest human, the perfect environment, & somehow all that anxiety just melted away.

she’s exactly where she’s meant to be 🐾 congratulations to Cashew’s new mom, Louise & to Cashew finally getting her furever! 😭🥹

Meet Rocky! A tiny 7 lb lovebug looking for his next chapter 🐾

My great aunt, his beloved owner, passed away & I stepped in to make sure he’s safe, loved, & never ends up in a shelter. Now I’m focused on finding him the perfect home where he can truly thrive 🤍

He’s a Miniature Pinscher/Chihuahua mix, about 10 years young (but you’d never guess it! He has the energy of a 4–5 year old!). He bonds quickly, loves his people deeply, & is the definition of a lap dog.

✨ People-oriented & affectionate
✨ Great with cats & dogs of all sizes, but prefers calm companions (or happiest as your one & only)
✨ Crate trained & actually loves his crate
✨ Used to sleeping in bed but is flexible & adapting easily
✨ Neutered, microchipped, & will be up to date on vaccines
✨ Had a dental recently & is in great health

He has a little “fun police” personality - rowdy, high-energy dogs aren’t his jam 😅 He’d also do best in a calm home without young kids where he can relax & soak up all the love.

He may guard his person a bit when he’s in your lap (classic Chihuahua behavior 🤣)

He wears a belly band indoors to prevent marking & honestly thinks it’s his daily outfit, he gets excited to put it on! 🥹

This sweet boy has so much love left to give & we’re committed to finding him a home that matches his gentle, loyal heart.

If you or someone you know is looking for the perfect little companion, please reach out 💛

Meet Cashew! She’s been in foster since January and is now looking for a forever home! Her foster mom wanted to keep her but due to her foster’s health challenges she needs to find placement.

She’s a perfect, easy little dog - about 16 lbs (the cutest medium size!), dog & cat friendly (can be a bit alpha on first meet with other dogs), and walks great on a leash. She’s happy with easy walks, couch time, and loves brunch or coffee patio hangs.

She’s spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and recently had a dental so only has a handful of teeth left. Around 10 years old, but in fantastic health with hopefully, many happy years ahead.

Loves all people and does best with older, gentle kids.

Let us know if you’re interested in this gem 💎🥰 don’t forget, sharing is caring! 🫶

Today is a strange, heavy, full-circle day for me.

I picked up a dog from the humane society that I personally adopted out 8 years ago. Her name was Shenzi but she’s now called Cashew.

Cashew was recently surrendered to the humane society. I can’t share all of the details, but I was given some information & was also told that it is their professional recommendation that she not be returned. We will absolutely be honoring that recommendation.

I do believe her owner loved her at some point. I also understand that life, circumstances, & mental health can change people in ways we’ll never fully understand. I’ll probably never know the full story & that’s okay. What matters is that she’s safe now.

Cashew is about 9–10 years old, dog and cat friendly, incredibly sweet, & gentle. She deserves nothing but comfort, stability, softness, & luxury in her golden years.

Once she is medically cleared, she will be available for adoption. If you’ve ever considered opening your heart to a senior dog who will love you endlessly & ask for very little in return, she is that girl.

Please keep her in your thoughts as she decompresses & begins this next chapter. Sometimes the dogs we let go of find their way back to us when they need us most. 🤍

Please share!!

Courtesy Post: Help find Bella!

This beautiful girl was last seen off Silver Pine and Spy Glass in the North Phoenix Anthem area on 6/20.
She is friendly, but very scared, so please do not approach her. We do not want her to panic run towards a road. We would love to get the owners on site ASAP to help secure her.

This post is shareable, so please spread the word so we can get sightings on her. Cross posted on Nextdoor and Ring Neighbors.

If you see this dog, please DO NOT APPROACH, PURSUE, CALL OUT TO, OR CHASE. Please take a picture, screenshot your pin location on a map, and note the direction she is/was headed.

Thank you!
