👑 REIGN: BIG BABY IN TRAINING 👑

At just 3 months old, Reign is already about 25 lbs and well on her way to becoming one very large lady.
Does she know that? Of course not!

Reign is a Mastiff with the sweetest, softest personality. She’s docile, gentle, very smart, and has a nice moderate energy level. She enjoys playing, but she’s just as happy hanging out and being close to her people.

She also gets along beautifully with dogs, cats, kids, and other animals, so she’s basically one big, lovable social girlie.

Her current hobbies include:

🐾 Forgetting she is not tiny
🐾 Being ridiculously sweet
🐾 Learning new things
🐾 Making friends with everyone
🐾 Preparing to eventually take up an entire couch

Reign is going to be a giant girl with an equally giant heart, and she’d love a family ready to watch her grow into the sweet, goofy powerhouse she’s meant to be.
Large dog. Soft soul. Zero understanding of personal space. 💕

My name is Haiku, and subtlety is not really my thing. 😂

I’m a Chiweenie born August 10, 2026, and I believe life should include three things: playtime, friends, and aggressive amounts of affection.

I’m neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated, and I get along great with dogs and cats. I’d also be happiest with older kids who can appreciate my enthusiastic approach to basically everything.

I’m energetic, playful, curious, and usually very busy doing important puppy business. But underneath all that wiggle is a ridiculously affectionate little guy who LOVES being close to his people.

I’m the type to spend ten minutes running around like I have somewhere extremely important to be… and then suddenly decide I need to be touching you at all times.

So if you’re looking for a dog who is equal parts tiny comedian, playmate, professional snuggler, and nosy little sidekick, I feel like we have a lot to discuss.

Applications for the position of “Haiku’s favorite person” are now being accepted. 💙

Meet Ruffnut! 🐶

He’s a scruffy little Terrier mix born July 28, 2026, and he’s expected to be medium-sized as an adult. He’s already neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated.

Right now, Ruffnut is a pretty calm, easygoing puppy with a softer, more submissive personality. He’s not the type charging into every room demanding attention — he’s more likely to quietly work his way over, curl up beside you, and decide that this is where he belongs.

He loves to cuddle, and he has that sweet, scruffy little face that makes it very hard not to pick him up and squeeze him. Ruffnut is also good with other dogs, cats, and kids!

He’s still young and figuring out the world, but he’s such a gentle little guy and would do really well with a family who wants a loving companion they can help grow into a confident adult dog.

Basically: scruffy face, sweet temperament, excellent cuddling skills. 💛

Meet Tuffnut, a scruffy little Terrier mix with a whole lot of sweetness packed into one puppy. 🥰

Tuffnut was born July 28, 2026 and is expected to be medium-sized when fully grown. He’s already neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated.

He’s a pretty mellow pup overall and tends to have a more submissive, gentle personality. He isn’t looking to run the show, he’s much happier sticking close to his people, soaking up affection, and finding a comfortable place to settle in.

He’s also good with dogs, cats, and kids, which makes him a really nice fit for a variety of homes.

Tuffnut loves to cuddle, and he has that soft, scruffy puppy look that makes him very hard to resist.

He’s still young, so he has plenty of growing and learning ahead of him, but he has such a sweet foundation and would be a great fit for someone who wants a loving, easygoing companion to grow up with.

Tuffnut may have a tough name, but he’s really just a big softie. 💛

Hey friends! I’m Grace!

I’m a Shar Pei born March 15, 2026, and I’m a super friendly, very smart girl who would really love a fresh start with the right family.

I’m being re-homed because I started having some issues with my sister/littermate. The humans think littermate syndrome may be part of the problem, and not necessarily that I can’t live with other dogs. I was professionally tested with a male dog, and I was happy, playful, excited, and had a great time with him.
To be extra safe, though, my new home should either have no other dogs or a compatible male dog only. No female dog roomies for me right now, I prefer to be the Queen of the castle!

A little more about me:

🐾 I’m great with kids
🐾 I’m good with cats
🐾 I’m housebroken
🐾 I’m working on crate training
🐾 I’m very friendly and social
🐾 I’m smart and quick to learn
🐾 I absolutely LOVE to swim
🐾 I’ve had preventative eye tacking to help avoid future Shar Pei eye issues
🐾 I’m up to date with my vaccines & have a spay appointment in December

I’m still young, so I’d do best with someone who has doggo experience and can keep giving me structure, training, and guidance. I’m not the best fit for a first-time dog owner, but I have so much potential with someone who understands what this Queen needs 💅

I’m sweet, goofy, affectionate, smart, and if there’s water nearby… you can pretty much count me in. I’m also incredibly cute, have you seen this face? 🥰

Good day friends! I’m Hayden!

I’m a 5-month-old Aussie mix, and I would like everyone to know that I am having an EXCELLENT time being alive.

I’m neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, crate trained, and leash trained, so yes, I’m adorable AND I come with some very impressive resume.

My personality? Happy. Goofy. Funny. Super silly! I’m the kind of guy who wakes up ready to have a good day and assumes everyone else should be just as excited as I am.

And let me be very clear:
I LOVE DOGS.�I LOVE KIDS.�Cats? I could likely live with them too!

Basically, I’m a social little guy who wants friends, fun, playtime, adventures, and a family to call my own.

I’m still a puppy, so I’ve got plenty left to learn, but I’m already proving to be such a great dog with a huge personality and an even bigger heart.

Hi, I’m Billy! I’m 60 pounds of good intentions, big feelings, and absolutely questionable coordination.

I’m a Heeler mix born September 28, 2025, and I’m neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.
I am an extremely playful guy and I LOVE other dogs. I could also do well with dog-savvy cats who understand that I may come in a little enthusiastic.

I’m good with kids too, but because I occasionally forget that I weigh 60 pounds and move through life like I have no idea where my feet are, older kids would probably be the best fit. I would never mean to knock a little one over… but apparently being graceful was not included in my skill set. 😅

The good news? I actually have lots of manners!

🐾 Crate trained�
🐾 Leash trained
�🐾 Very polite�
🐾 Great with other dogs�
🐾 Super playful�
🐾 Certified GOOD BOY

I’d love a family who wants a fun, goofy companion to play with, go on adventures with, and laugh at when I inevitably trip over absolutely nothing.

I may be a little clumsy, but I’ve got a very big heart to match my very big paws.
So… who needs a new best friend with the coolest spots? 💙

Hi, I’m Arwen 👋🐾

I’m a 4-month-old Aussie mix, and I have one very important life philosophy:
EVERYONE IS MY FRIEND.

Dogs? Friends.�Cats? Friends.�Kids? Friends.�Person standing 30 feet away minding their own business? Potential best friend. 😂

I’m vaccinated, microchipped, crate trained, and currently mastering the leash (but I’m wiggly and not a huge fan of it yet…I will be though!). I’m also extremely funny, slightly ridiculous, and basically a tiny chaos coordinator with excellent intentions.

I LOVE to play, explore, investigate everything, and make sure nobody around me is having a boring day.

Because I’ve got that smart little Aussie brain, I’d love a family who will keep me busy, teach me new things, take me on adventures, and give me plenty of ways to burn off some of my “I HAVE SO MANY IDEAS” energy.

In return, I promise to provide:�✨ Unlimited entertainment�✨ Adventure enthusiasm�✨ Lots of love�✨ Several questionable decisions�✨ And approximately 47 new best friends everywhere we go

If you’re looking for a funny, social, adventurous little bestie who is ready to be included in EVERYTHING - look no further! I’m here!

I’m Patsy, and I’m pretty sure I was made to be somebody’s best friend.

I’m a Lab mix born July 14, and I’m already spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated. I’m also great with dogs, cats, and kids.

I’m a total snuggle bug, super playful, and I’m also very smart. I love being involved, learning new things, and keeping up with whatever my people are doing.

But I have to admit… I’m kind of a girl’s girl. 💕 I would LOVE to have a young girl to grow up with — someone I can cuddle with, play with, follow around, go on adventures with, and become completely attached to in the best possible way.

I can already picture it: growing up together, making memories together, and being the dog she talks about forever.

So if you’ve been hoping for a sweet, playful, loving best friend to grow up alongside your family…I might be your girl. 💗
