• “I'm 100% beagle & 90% good boy, or at least that's what my Mom says. I love to run off leash, I love tall grass, trees & basically all outdoors things. I'm a little nervous when it comes to certain strangers, really I just take a little while to warm up. There are no kids in my house so when I see one I give them my proper beagle hello!“

When I’m outside I’m very adventurous & loves to roll around in the grass. Playing fetch is something i can do ALL DAY🐾🐾🐾🐾 doesn’t matter the toy, just throw it!!😀“

  — Maya R.

• “Hi, I’m Scooter! My moms rescued me from a cavalier King Charles spaniel rescue when I was 4 and I couldn’t be happier with my new family. I used to be very unsure about my surroundings and my anxiety would get the best of me, but my moms signed me up for doggie training school and I’ve been getting better and better ever since. I like to play but I’m a very vocal little guy and I don’t play very well with dogs other than my brother and sister. I prefer lap snuggles with my moms, but when I do play I love to play fetch!“

I’m trying my best to learn how to potty, and sit, and not nibble on my foster mom but sometimes I just won’t listen. I can’t wait to run around and sniff everything in my sight. Sticks are my absolute favorite thing. I’m just living my best life until I find my forever home! Anyways, what’s that? Squirrel!“
