Meet our Furry Friends of the Week!
All available through a new rescue named Helping Peeps and Paws.
⭐ Arthur: the definition of an all-around catch. This 9-month-old, 40-lb neutered male black Lab/Pit mix is up-to-date on vaccines, house AND crate trained, and mastering basic manners thanks to being extremely food motivated. An enthusiastic zoomer with an adorably awkward run, plays beautifully with toys, and is both kid- and cat-friendly. Arthur is always up for a good time. He’s happy adventuring with his people or just relaxing. Whoever adopts Arthur is getting a joyful, social, easygoing best friend, the kind of dog who makes every day lighter.
❤️ Draco! A 7-month-old brindle Pitbull-Boxer mix with a personality as charming as his adorable, “can’t-make-up-their-mind” ears. One moment they’re floppy, the next they’re standing tall- and the whole time, he’s giving you a look that will absolutely make you laugh.
He’s the perfect companion for anyone who loves to get outside, explore, and stay active. He is also a total cuddle bug. He’ll flop right into your lap for all the love!
He’s crate trained, nearly house trained, walks well on a leash, and has great recall. He is incredibly smart, very food-motivated, and eager to keep learning. He loves car rides and hops right in ready for an adventure!
🐶Tess! This sweet mama dog has a heart as big as her journey… rescued from a shelter along with her puppies, whom she cared for with all the love in the world. Now that her little ones are safe, Tess is finally ready for a chapter of her own.
Tess loves car rides, playing with toys hanging out with her people, and always eager to please. With her gentle, soulful personality, she’ll win you over in about five seconds.
With proper introductions, Tess does well with other dogs and would thrive in a patient, loving home that gives her the space to blossom.
🍤Shrimp! Don’t let her tiny name fool you—this girl has a huge heart and an even bigger zest for life. Shrimp was found under a car, barely alive, covered in sores, and heartbreakingly skinny. But this brave little fighter has come such a long way, and her glow-up is well underway. She’s still working through some skin issues, but with love and care, she’s healing beautifully.
Despite her rough start, Shrimp’s spirit is pure sunshine. She loves to snuggle, play tug-of-war with her buddy Fez, and proudly carry her toys around. Her crate—complete with a cozy heating pad—is her happy place. She’s never met a stranger, happily entertaining herself or becoming your adorable little shadow!
She walks nicely on a leash, loves treats, and will sit and wait like the good girl! Potty training and puppy nibbles are still a work in progress, but she learns fast and aims to please.

As with any rescue or shelter dog, please follow the 3:3:3 rule. These dogs need to decompress….3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to learn your routine, 3 months to feel safe and part of your home. Give them time and patience. SLOW INTROS are always recommended for any new dog entering a new home.
