🍎 Meet Appletini, aka Tini! This 13-week-old, 9-pound doodle is tiny, sweet, sassy, and already serving up plenty of personality. She’s been friendly with every dog she’s met, including two big dogs who apparently forgot she weighs less than their dinner.

Tini is still learning the basics of puppy life, including potty training and commands, but this little girl is ready to learn! Appletini, along with her sibling Reece, will be available for adoption through You Lucky Dog Rescue soon. 🍏🐾 Fill out an adoption application and write in her name if you’re interested.

Introducing 🐾 REY 🐾

Rey is a 6-month-old, 36-lb professional heart-stealer! 💕 Born at the shelter with eight siblings, this little girl is finally getting to experience the good life, and she’s loving every minute of it. Between her adorable underbite, signature head tilt, puppy zoomies, grass sploots, and serious snuggle skills, Rey is pretty much impossible to resist. She’s learning her puppy manners, doing great with house-training, and looking for a patient family who will love her, guide her, and give her the happily-ever-after she’s been waiting for.

Introducing ALFIE!

Alfie is a 57-lb professional cuddler with a serious case of the zoomies. 🐾

This 2-year-old boy loves his people, belly rubs, toys, walks, bird watching, squirrel chasing, and pretty much anything that involves being part of the action. He’s house- and crate-trained, great in the car, knows his basic commands, and does well with friendly dogs after proper introductions.

Alfie is looking for a family ready to spoil him with good food, cozy beds, lots of love, and the forever home he’s been waiting for. He’d do best with older, dog-savvy kids.

Today is National Black Dog Day, and we’re shining a little extra light on the dogs who are too often overlooked simply because of their color. 🖤

Black dogs can be harder to photograph, harder to see in crowded kennels, and sadly, they’re often passed by for lighter-colored dogs. But behind every black coat is a unique personality, a goofy smile, and a whole lot of love waiting to be discovered. Take a second look at our black dogs waiting for homes.

Full bios can be found on our website.

Glordon had quite the glow-up! His shelter pic was giving a little billie goat, but look at him now! A bath, a haircut, and some TLC later, and he’s looking like the handsome Yorkie/Schnauzer mix he was meant to be. Glordon is looking for his furever family!

I’m asking the internet for a favor today. A really important one. I’m Jenny and I volunteer with You Lucky Dog Rescue. I spent a morning with Anise at an adoption event last month and I want to share her story.

This is Anise. 🖤

A year ago, Anise was hit by a car and suffered a shattered leg and broken pelvis. Amputation and euthanasia were discussed, but her foster mom refused to give up on her. Anise wanted to live, and her foster mom fought to give her that chance.

Many of you donated and helped us raise the money for her surgery. A surgeon made it happen. She made a FULL recovery.

Here’s the part that breaks our hearts: Anise has now been in her foster home for an entire year, and not one person has submitted an application for her.

Not one.

She’s a bully breed. She’s a black dog. And unfortunately, those are two things that can make dogs like Anise invisible in a rescue world overflowing with dogs who need homes.

🌟This is my favorite part: I spent a morning with Anise at an adoption event last month, and I got to see something really special.

This girl LOVES her foster mom.

Even while she was sitting with me, her eyes kept finding her foster mom. She was always checking where her person was. And I couldn’t stop thinking about what that must mean when Anise finally gets her forever home.

If you become Anise’s person, I think you’re going to have one incredibly loyal dog. The kind who chooses you completely. The kind who wants to be by your side and be your best friend. She’ll give you unconditional love, greet you like you’re the best part of her day, and always be waiting to welcome you home. 🌟

Anise has been professionally trained and knows lots of commands. She could use a little leash work. She cannot live with cats or small animals and would probably do best as your one-and-only, although she may be able to live with a similar-sized, well-mannered dog. Great with kids!

She survived being hit by a car. She survived devastating injuries. She survived surgery and a long recovery.

Now she just needs someone to see her.

Please consider opening your home to Anise. If you can’t adopt her, please share this post. Send it to the person who loves the dogs everyone else overlooks.

I believe in the power of the internet.

Let’s use it to get this girl home. Help us by sharing this post. 🖤🐾

🥾🌲 Coral has the perfect weekend plan: hike first, cuddle later.

She’s a great hiking buddy who loves getting out and exploring, but once the adventure is over, she’s happiest curled up on the couch with her favorite people.

Looking for a dog who can keep up on the trail and snuggle on the couch? Coral’s your girl!
