Charming Older Man, Looking For A Lonesome Lap... Meet Chester!
Chester's is one of those stories that just broke my heart and made me want to hurt the folks who treated him so badly. This poor guy was just recently rescued from a puppy mill where he spent his entire nine years of life being used and neglected. He didn't get the food he should and his teeth were in such bad shape, he had to have all but three removed. His neglected coat is still recovering, but it's growing in nicely and he starting to show how handsome … (6 comments)

Two Older Gals Looking For A Home Together... Meet Maisy and Sadie!
Maisy and Sadie are two older girls who have not only been together most of their lives, but are the very best of friends. They are so close, in fact, that they will only be adopted out together as they simply couldn't bear to be separated. When not together, they are noticeably depressed and won't even eat, then they're estatic when reunited. Maisy is a border collie mix and is still pretty active and playful. Sadie has slowed down a bit more, but is happy and … (5 comments)

This Sweet Girl is Destined To Be Your Lap Dog... Meet Ellie Mae
Ellie Mae is a 1 to 2 year old chihuahua mix who is quiet and shy, but oh so sweet. She likes to watch the others play first, then slowly joins in. Then she has a ball, proudly struting around, enjoying her friends. Ellie Mae is happiest when she's cuddled safely on a human's lap and she is the nap queen! She was found with another shelter dog, Indie, and plays especially well with her as the two seem well bonded. They can be adopted together … (8 comments)

If you're looking to go the puppy route, Bambi just may be the girl for you. She is just about 10 weeks old, a chihuahua/dachshund mix and weighs in at a wee 5 pounds. She's a tough one, though, and loves to run with the big dogs... well, any dog at all, that is.

Goofy & Playful, This Guy Will Make You Smile... Meet Rokie!
If you're new to our blog, we write about a local shelter dog each week and have for over a year now. Of the 60+ dogs we've featured, all but one have been adopted. Let's keep that up! As mom to four rescued shelter dogs, I urge you to adopt a shelter dog, don't buy from a breeder. The Hukari Animal Shelter currently has 17 dogs, the most I've seen in the 2+ years I've been involved with them. If Rokie doesn't strike a chord with you, there's … (5 comments)

Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice... Meet Lollipop!
Lollipop is a very appropriate name for this darling of a girl, as you just won't meet a pup who is sweeter. Lollipop is just over a year old and around 45 pounds big, and the folks at the shelter are guessing she's probably a Border Collie mix with Australian Shepard mixed in. She is truly beautiful with unique markings and a face that will absolutely melt your heart. This girl has it all... she's frisky, curious, smart and playful, while she's great with kids, cats and absolutely loves playing with … (7 comments)

For a Huge Personality In a Small Package... Meet Cesar!
Cesar is a little guy, a pomeranian/corgi mix, who couldn't be happier. This is one confident and fun guy who just loves his long walks! You can tell by that head held high that's he's so ready for any adventure and wants to play and play. Cesar weighs in at about 20 pounds which is a little too much, so he needs help controlling what he eats because he adores eating so much. Cesar also thinks he's the boss so he needs owners who will set firm, but loving … (4 comments)
