Alejandro is a big, bouncy boy who is full of love and energy! His foster reports that he is “an absolute angel,” super smart and eager to please. He’s a great work-from-home buddy who will lay by your side until it’s time to go on a walk! He’s still learning that people do not like to be jumped on, but he’s getting there! Are you Alejandro’s new family? You might be if you’re an experienced owner with no cats and no kids (or kids over 12), and plenty of time to work on his manners. Alejandro is friendly with other dogs but doesn’t need to have dog siblings. He’s ready to be your new best friend!

If you love the outdoors and staying active then Bixby is the dog for you! This fun pup has tons of energy to spare. He enjoying long play sessions with all kinds of toys. Playing fetch is one of his favorite things to do! He also loves long walks and cuddle time after all of his energy has been spent. Since Bixby loves to be on the go so much, he would do best in a household with experienced dog owners who are frequently around to spend time with him. He would also do best in a household with a fenced yard so that he can spend as much time outside as he’d like.

Flynn is a very sweet and social cat! He loves resting in small spaces, playing with various cat toys, and receiving lots of pets. Flynn has a heart a gold which is remarkable considering all that he has been through. When he first came to PAWS he had a badly fractured leg that needed a lot of time to heal. Now his leg is much better and he is ready to use it to strut into a new home!

Landon Those floppy ears! Those soulful eyes! Landon is a fun, goofy, affectionate pup who thrives on mental and physical stimulation. His loving home is ready for ongoing training with an eager student — made easier by his passion for food. He loves your attention most of all, whether throwing a ball outside or teaming up for a walk around the neighborhood, and at the end of the day he wants to curl up next to you and cuddle, cuddle, cuddle. Are you Landon’s loving home? You might be if you’re an older kid or adults-only single-family home or spacious walkup, and you’re eager to engage in physical and mental activity with a lovebug of a pup.

Mazzy is an incredible dog and looking for a foster home while she is being treated for an upper respiratory infection. She is on exercise restriction and will need to be the only dog in the home while she recovers from the cold. She may need surgery for a possible tibial fracture - no stairs!

Pippa is a sweet cat who can't wait to find her furrever home! She is a pretty laidback cat who would be perfect for anyone looking for a cute buddy to lounge around with. She loves cuddling up to people on the couch but also enjoys her solo naps in little hut like beds. Between her naps, she does enjoy playing with wand toys--especially ones with feathers! Occasionally, Pippa can be a rough player so when she is in play mode it is recommended to use toys with distance such as the wands she enjoys so much or laser pointers. This kitty enjoys her one-on-one time with her people so much that she would prefer to be a solo cat. She just can't help wanting to be the star of the show!
