🐾 Meet Grover! 🐾

Grover is a 3-year-old French Bulldog with a heart as big as his adorable bat ears. This sweet boy loves people and is happiest when he's by your side, whether that's lounging on the couch, supervising your daily activities, or soaking up all the attention he can get. He has a gentle, affectionate personality and is ready to become someone's loyal best friend.

Grover is looking for a home where he can be the star of the show. He prefers not to share his people with other dogs and would thrive as the only pet in the home. In return, he'll give you all the love, companionship, and Frenchie antics you could ever ask for.

This handsome guy is past the puppy stage but still has plenty of playful moments and a fun-loving spirit. He enjoys spending time with his family and will gladly trade kisses and cuddles for belly rubs and treats.

If you're looking for a devoted companion who wants nothing more than to love and be loved, Grover may be the perfect addition to your family. He's ready to leave rescue life behind and start his next chapter with a forever family all his own.

Hampton Roads foster needed for Reily, a 2yr old Corgi. She found herself on the wrong end of a fight with a large breed dog a few days ago, and is looking for a comfy place to recuperate in while she waits to find her forever family. She has been neutral with dogs at the shelter, but we don’t think she’d love young, rowdy kids.

Send us a message if you’re interested in fostering this lovely lady!

We have a confession to make.

When we committed to these two little Golden Retriever sisters, we knew it would be expensive. We knew it would be complicated. But saying "no" simply wasn't an option.

Today, we're still a few thousand dollars away from making their surgeries possible—and time is running short.
Their surgeries are scheduled for June 24th in New Jersey, where they will be evaluated and treated by specialists familiar with this rare condition. The estimates we've received are between $5,800 and $8,400 per puppy, meaning we could be facing well over $10,000 in medical expenses to give these girls the future they deserve.

These puppies were born with ectopic ureters - a congenital defect that causes them to leak urine constantly. They aren't having accidents because they aren't trained—they physically cannot control it. Every day without treatment leaves them vulnerable to skin irritation, painful urinary tract infections, and lifelong complications.
The good news is that there is hope. Surgery can give them the chance to live normal, happy lives—running through the yard, snuggling on the couch, and growing up without constant discomfort.

We've already done the hard part. We've consulted specialists, secured their appointments, and committed to seeing this through. Now we're asking our community to help us cross the finish line.

It's easy to think, "Someone else will donate."
But that's exactly how these campaigns stall.
Whether you can give $10, $25, or $100, every donation brings these sisters one step closer to the life every puppy deserves. And if donating isn't possible, sharing this post could put it in front of the person who can help.

We have less than two weeks until their surgery date. We believe they'll get there—but only if we get there together.

🐾 Please help us give these girls the chance they've been fighting for.

Every dollar matters. Every share matters. And to these two little girls, it could mean everything. ❤️

Hampton Roads foster needed for “Rocky” a 2 year old bulldog mix. Adopted in Jan of this year, his family has decided he’s not a good fit and are returning him 💔
Rocky was previously in foster with other dogs, and did well. He is a sweet guy, loves his people, and needs a soft place to plans while we search for his true forever home.

Send us a message if you love dogs that look like toads, and want to foster Rocky for a bit!

Meet Charlie 🐾✨

Charlie is a 4-year-old Maltipoo with a big personality packed into a small, fluffy body! He was surrendered when he became a bit too much for his elderly owner—but in reality, Charlie is just an active, smart little dog who needs the right outlet for his energy.

In true small dog fashion, Charlie has plenty of s***k and loves to stay busy. He’s currently living with other dogs and children in his foster home and is doing well, but he can get a little grouchy if young kids try to pick him up when he’s not into it. Because of this, we think Charlie would do best in a home without small children, or with older, respectful kids who understand boundaries.

Charlie is looking for an owner who will treat him like a dog—not just a lap accessory. He’ll thrive with someone committed to giving him proper mental and physical stimulation, structure, and guidance to help him be his very best self.

With the right person, Charlie will be a fun, loyal, and entertaining companion who keeps you on your toes in the best way. If you’re ready for a little dog with a big personality, Charlie might just be your perfect match 💛
