Looking for a playful, charming gentle giant to drool over? Meet Mr. Wilson, a youngster still growing into what will soon be sizable boots. He is in the fun, goofy, clumsy stage, but you will melt over his eyes and smile which will be steadfast and continuous as he grows into your faithful and loyal companion.

Great with kids and other animals, including canine and feline, Mr. Wilson loves all living creatures and will be the best friend we all need. Imagine him standing point in your backyard—keeping watch, then happily playing with a super-sized tennis ball, followed by a belly rub and some rest in his kennel with some Pupperoni! Does it get any better than that?

This may be a bit surprising, but Mr. Wilson has a good appetite and just may occasionally put his paws up on the table or counter to investigate what delicacies are available. We have all been known to do the same! He is completely housebroken, knows “sit” and is eager to learn more commands. Come see Mr. Wilson today and bring a towel or three!

🚗 Giving us Driving Miss Daisy vibes, this darling Pomeranian is full of sass, loyalty, and love! Miss Daisy is a soft-blonde beauty who sticks to you like Velcro—whether she’s riding shotgun, curled up on your lap, or snoozing beside you.

She prefers slow intros and isn’t a fan of big dogs or chaos, but once you’re in her circle, you’re golden. She’s playful in the yard, loves “helping” with gardening, and has a thing for collecting socks and shoes (fair warning!).

Ready to cruise through life with your new best friend? Miss Daisy is packed and waiting. 💛

Ciao! Meet Gorgonzola—a pup who likely earned his name thanks to his charming, cheesy smile. His foster parents say he’s a very goofy boy!

There are plenty of reasons why Gorgonzola is always happy. He loves people, including children, and gets along well with other dogs. Still a puppy, he’s learning the ropes when it comes to only chewing on his own toys and keeping his paws on the ground. He’s already mastered potty training and always goes outside to do his business. In fact, being outside is his favorite—he enjoys sunbathing in the grass and chasing balls in the yard. While fetch might be the goal, Gorgonzola much prefers turning it into a game of “keep away.”

He already knows a few commands like “sit,” “down,” and “paw,” and walks nicely on a leash with a freedom harness. During the day, Gorgonzola can usually be found lounging on the couch with his canine friends. At night, he settles quickly in his crate. When his foster parents are around, he’s convinced they’re always ready to play—how could they resist someone so sweet?

Looking for an energetic, fun-loving pup to brighten your life? Gorgonzola might just be your guy.

Meet Bernice! 🐾
This sweet, spunky senior lady has come a long way from the streets of Chicago and is now thriving in her loving foster home. Despite a bit of arthritis, she’s always up for a walk, a squirrel patrol, or a good belly rub!

Bernice is house-trained, sleeps soundly through the night, and is perfectly content hanging out with other dogs. She’s calm, affectionate, and respectful in the home—no crate needed!

If you’re looking for a loyal, low-key companion with a heart full of love, Bernice could be your perfect match. ❤️
