Fostered in San Diego
****

My name’s Kindhearted Kody, and I’m an eight (or maybe nine!)-year-old Bichon boy with a mellow soul, a gentle heart, soulful eyes and a permanently sweet toothy grin (thanks to my adorable front teeth that say “hello” before I do. I’m a compact guy at about 18 pounds who is feeling healthy, happy, and very much loved (now that I am a FurKid.)

I’m what my foster Dad calls a “shadow dog.” If you sit, I sit. If you move, I follow. The couch is one of my favorite places to be—especially if you’re on it. I show affection with soft kisses (and sometimes enthusiastic face licking), and I truly believe the best spot in the house is right next to my person. I don’t need toys or balls to be happy—your company is more than enough for me.

Now let’s talk about walks. Walks are my absolute joy! When I see the leash, I jump with delight because getting outside with my special person is one of my favorite things in the world. I’m amazing on walks as every walk is a new adventure – and there’s so much to see and explore. Did I mention also that I’m housebroken and also ride like a champ in the car? You can take me anywhere: no drama, no motion sickness, just calm companionship.

I’m a friendly, easygoing guy who gets along well with other dogs, adults, visitors, and even those little ones called “kids.” I’ve spent time around my foster Dad’s grandsons (ages 6 and 11), and while I stick close to him, I’m perfectly comfortable and unfazed with kids being kids. I’m not much of a barker, and when you leave the house, I handle it like a pro—especially if there’s a goodbye treat involved. When you come home, though, you can expect happy hops and a little joyful chatter!

I’m still learning a few basic commands like my name, “sit,” and “stay,” but I’m always eager and polite– and I make up for any lack of previous training with excellent manners and a calm, loving presence. Baths? No problem – I’m a pro. Sleeping on the bed? Totally fine with me. Being your loyal wingman? That’s my specialty.

My Ideal Home Must Have:

– A loving person or family who enjoys a calm, affectionate companion
– A cozy couch (sharing encouraged!)
– Daily walks and quality time together

Experience Level:

– Any level, especially those who appreciate a mellow, well-mannered best friend

If you’re looking for a gentle, loyal companion who will happily follow you through life, warm your heart (and your couch and bed), and greet you with joy every time you come home, I’m your perfect match and applying for the job! Please do ask for me. Being adopted would be the bestest present of all.

Kisses and happy strolls,
Kind, Calm & Completely Devoted Kody 🐾

Hello New Friends,

We’re Presley and Elvis — two handsome young siblings (yes, we’re a dynamic duo!) who are ready to find our forever home (together, of course!)

I’m Presley, the adorable boy with a beautiful white coat, a curious spirit, and a soft spot for playtime, while my brother Elvis is the dashing gray and white pup with soulful eyes and a heart full of love. We’re both about a year and a half old, perfectly sized at 18 and 20 pounds, and full of personality!

Now, let’s start with me, Presley. I’m the more playful pup— always ready for a game of chase or a good romp around the yard. I adore other dogs — all shapes and sizes — and love making new friends. I’m still learning a few of those things humans call “house manners,” but I’m super smart and eager to learn (especially if treats are involved). Once I’ve had my fun, I’m all about cozy naps and watching the world from a comfy spot.

Elvis is the calm to my curious, the mellow to my mischief. He’s got that “old soul” kind of sweetness — gentle, thoughtful, and affectionate. He loves giving hugs (the kind where he stands up to wrap his paws around you!) and is happiest when he’s near his people or hanging out with his fur friends. Like me, he’s a quick study and very motivated to please. Elvis loves having another dog around, which is one reason why we’re such a perfect pair.

We both ride great in the car (we usually just curl up and fall asleep), and LOVE our daily walks. We’re still learning more about the world every day, but are eager and bright —and respond immediately to gentle encouragement and consistency.

Our foster mom says we balance each other beautifully: I bring the energy and enthusiasm, while Elvis brings the calm and cuddles. Together, we’re playful, loving, and oh-so-loyal. When we’re not exploring or playing with our friends, you’ll find us snoozing side-by-side, dreaming of the forever family who will love us both.

Our Ideal Home Must Have:
– A loving person or family ready to welcome two sweet boys
– A home with patience, kindness, and consistency as we continue to learn
– A yard for zoomies and sniffing adventures would be wonderful

Experience Level:
– A home with people familiar with young pups or bonded pairs who can continue gentle training and build our confidence

We’ve had such fun discovering the world together — walks, car rides, cuddles, and playtime are all new joys we now get to share. We can’t wait to keep exploring life’s adventures as part of a forever family. If you’re looking for two affectionate, silly, and devoted boys who will fill your home with laughter, love, and a little rock ’n’ roll energy, we are the perfect match.

With love and tail wags,
Playful Presley & Easygoing Elvis

Hello New Friends!

My name’s Remarkable Remy–and I’m a seven-year-old Havanese boy with a soft gray-and-white coat and a heart that is loving (and ready to share my love.) Before I became a FurKid, I spent most of my life in a crate, which is why my foster mom says I’m a one-year-old pup in a slightly older body. I like to have fun – and create fun, too! Why I feel like a brand-new pup!

I love being with my pack and have learned things like ‘how to cuddle’. I don’t need my ‘own space’ as I love being with my foster family. My new life includes chasing my doggy foster brothers around the yard. I’m not exactly sure what to do with the ball itself, but I’m an enthusiastic member of the “dogs chasing dogs chasing the ball” team. It’s the best kind of chaos!

When it comes to people, I’m all in. I love everyone I meet—men, women, kids of all sizes and shapes and visitors. If you smile and have a hand that likes to pet, we’ll be instant friends. I adore attention and will happily soak up affection. And when I’m ready to relax, I often retreat quietly to my crate (Mom calls it my happy place).

I’m an active guy who enjoys long walks, play time, and exploring the great outdoors. I walk nicely on a leash (okay, I might pull a bit to say hello to neighbors!), and I’m fully housebroken (and use a doggie door like a champ! I mastered it in no time at all.) I like to ride in the car—shotgun’s my favorite seat, but I’m happy to chill in the back too.

My Ideal Home Must Have:
– A like-sized, energetic doggy friend to keep me company and play with
– A safe yard for exploring and zoomies
– A family who enjoys walks and outdoor adventures

Experience Level:
– Adopters who understand active, fun-loving pups and can help continue light training

After seven years of waiting for my real life to begin, I’m finally free to run, play, and love—and am ready to share that joy with my forever family. If you’re looking for a happy, energetic companion who will greet every day with enthusiasm and a heart full of love, I just might be your guy.

Tail wags and smiles,
Radiant, Rambunctious & Resilient Remy

Hello New Friends,

My name is Precious  Paisley, and I’m a petite little lady (just 13 inches tall and about 12 pounds) with a fluffy white and apricot coat that makes me look as sweet as I truly am. I’m around 2 years old—so still young enough for playtime and adventures, but wise enough to enjoy snuggles and calm moments too.

If I had to pick my favorite thing in the world, it would be snuggling. I like to put my paws up on you so you know I’m ready for cuddles, and then I’ll press my head into your hand so you can pet me just right. Once I feel safe with you, I become your little shadow, happy to follow you around and keep you company.

I can be a bit shy when meeting new people or dogs, but here’s the good news: give me a little time and patience, and I warm up into the sweetest, most affectionate friend. Once I know I can trust you, my silly, playful side comes out, and I’ll make you smile every day. If we’re being honest, I love to have all the attention to myself and would prefer to be the only FurKid in your life, but other small, gentle pups are something I might consider in my new home.

I’m a great little traveler—I get excited to hop in the car, and after a few minutes of wiggly joy, I settle right in for the ride. At home, I’m housebroken, I crate well, and sometimes I even put myself to bed at night (what can I say, I’m a smart girl!). I love walks and yard play, and while I may bark to let you know when something’s happening outside, I listen when called back in and quiet down quickly. I can get a little over-excited about other people and dogs on walks, so I need a human who will have patience with me to keep teaching me how to behave in public.

My Ideal Home Must Have:
– A gentle, patient person or family who understands sensitive souls
– Adults or older kids who will give me space to come to them when I’m ready
– Walks, snuggles, and plenty of lap time

Experience Level:
– Best with someone who knows how to build trust and confidence in a shy pup
– Experience with puppies or younger dogs who require some training

All in all, I’m a gentle, affectionate, and sometimes silly little girl who just wants to feel safe and loved. If you’re looking for a loyal lap dog and walking buddy who will adore you once I know you’re mine, then I think we could be the perfect match.

Snuggles and wiggles,
Precious and Playful Paisley

Hello New Friends,

My name is Snuggly Spencer and I’m a darling little guy of about two (years that is) with a soft white coat and weighing about 12 pounds. That makes me the perfect size for walks, cuddles, and keeping you company wherever you go. 

Now, let me tell you about my favorite thing in the whole world: it’s called (drum roll please) going for walks! The second I see the leash, I can barely contain my excitement. I bounce, wiggle, and make happy little noises because I know adventure time is upon us (us is my foster Mom and me!) Once we’re outside, I’m curious and alert, ready to explore the world with her (and hopefully soon you) by my side. 

I’m a little shy when I first meet new dogs (especially big ones), but once I feel safe, I warm up quickly. I’ve mastered a lot of things already in my foster home. I’ve learned how to be social and friendly– and REALLY enjoy having doggy friends, especially ones who are kind and respectful of little guys like me!

With people who are called ‘adults’, I’m very loving —  and I’m loving in my own quiet and sweet way. I can also do well with older kids who are patient and understand that I may take a little longer to get to know them–but once I do, we can be the bestest of friends! 

At home, I’m a mellow and very easygoing companion. I’m housebroken (that’s NOT a typo!), rarely bark, and don’t have separation anxiety I love being near my people, whether that means curling up by your side or following you from room to room. And if you need to go out somewhere without me, that’s okay too—I’ll wait quietly until you return and will be delighted to have you home.  Of course if you can take me with you, we can explore more of the world together  — and I’d like that a lot! 

My Ideal Home Must Have:
– A calm, patient person or family who will let me build my confidence
– Another FurKid or two, please!
– Lots of walks and outdoor time, because I love exploring and adventures!
– Adults and even older children who will respect my space and work with me

Experience Level:
– Knows how to build trust with a four-legged companion

All in all, I’m sweet, calm, a little silly—and ready to become a loyal friend. If you’re looking for a walking buddy who loves adventures and also loves to cuddle, let’s meet and make plans! 

Wiggles and wags,
Sweet, Sociable and Snuggly Spencer

Hello World,

My name is Toby the Terrific and I’m a loving and playful bichon who adores being by your side (or better yet, in your lap!) I’m about 3 years old, weigh a slim, trim 15 pounds, have a soft white coat and a heart full of love.

I’m happiest when I’m close to my special person or people. If you’re sitting, I like to curl up in your lap or, at the very least, on your feet. If I want a cuddle, I’ll gently ask — and I will hug your legs to let you know I’d like to be picked up. I love to be wherever you are— in the house or in the yard. I’m a joyful companion who enjoys being with you wherever you go. 

Playtime is another favorite time as I enjoy chasing balls (I think the game is called fetch and I do it really well!) I also like to carry them proudly when I’m done.

I get along well with the dogs I meet on my walks, though I’d prefer being the center of someone’s world, and not having to share attention at home. I’m very affectionate with women (men make me a bit nervous— at least at first.)I do well with older children (8 or older) who understand how to be gentle and respectful of a little guy. I happily play ball with them and soak up the attention.

I’m completely housebroken (and that is not a typo!), ride well in the car, am learning to walk well on a leash, and working on commands like sit and come. I’m a moderate-energy boy who enjoys yard play, walks, rides, adventures —and plenty of cuddle time.

My Ideal Home MUST Have:
– Someone who loves lap dogs and cuddle time
– A home where I can be the only pup (so I don’t have to share the love!)
– A patient, gentle person or family who’ll help me continue to build confidence
– A loving home where I can feel safe and be adored

Experience Level
– Previously owned and adored dogs
– Adopters who understand and appreciate dogs who thrive on being companions

I’m loving, happy, and playful, and I’d love nothing more than to be your devoted little shadow. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will always be by your side, I hope you’ll ask for me.

Tail wags and Snuggles,
Truly Devoted (to you!) Toby
