Let's Get to Know These Fantastic Pups

Hercules
Hercules reminds everyone to life life with a little more joy and a lot more naps. More than just a dog, Hercules is a best friend, a mood booster, and a tiny legend with a giant heart.

Jorjio
​
Jorjio has a heart of gold. He is goofy, loves to play (is great at tearing up paper), loves attention. He has such a beautiful, expressive and happy soul!

Jojo
Jojo is a two and a half year old Portuguese Jack Russel mix rescued from Avenal Animal Shelter. Warm and friendly to everyone, he is easily won over with peanut butter treats and toys. When he sleeps, he likes laying on his back. In his free time, he loves to be outside running and playing.

Remi
During a dark and stormy time due to the loss of our son, an eight-week little white Malti-Poo named Remi entered our family from the small town of Lindsay. Her energetic spirit has brought joy and life back to our home, which quickly transitioned her from a therapy dog to a member of our family.
Remi now welcomes us home as she runs excitedly around the house then begs us to play fetch scratching the hand to encourage us to throw her beloved toys down the hallway. She loves walks on the beach, shopping at Ross, or just cuddling on the couch.
Though Remi will never replace of the loss of a son, she has certainly helped in the healing process through her lively personality and love she exhibits. We love her very much and are very grateful to have found our Miss Remi!

Toby
This young pup was discovered at the Avenal Animal Shelter as a rescue three months ago. Even though he weighs in at 12 lbs., he acts like he thinks he is 100 lbs and holds his own! He loves walks and his toys, but do not take his toys as he will not forgive you for it! Toby loves being outside, but not alone - he loves his people!

Tae
A Yorkie-Maltese mix, Tae is a rescue dog adopted from a shelter. He loves long naps and his walks. For the most part, he is a calm dog, but when he gets into a mood, that's when he sprints to every part of the house making it hard to catch him!

Lucy
Walking through the market, having lunch at the local restaurants, impressing others with my unique skills, those are a few of Lucy's favorite things. She also loves paling around with her best doggie buddy, and is an all around happy dog! She is truly a treasured part of her family!​

Max
Max (better know as 'Maxi Baby') is a loveable and friendly dog. His belly scratches and going on his daily car rides for his fresh air bring him such joy! Max's favorite sport is going out to our local sports complex to go rabbit and squirrel hunting, and he's managed to catch two squirls already!
In the evenings, he casually sits at the dining room table patiently waiting for his food after working on his 10 plus naps a day. Max is not just our dog, he's our family.
