After an incredible inaugural event, we’re excited to bring back the Race for the Underdogs 5K for its second year! 🐾

We can’t wait to welcome runners, walkers, supporters, and their four-legged friends back to beautiful Lake Padden for another morning dedicated to helping our underdogs. Every step taken helps support the animals in our care and gives more dogs the second chance they deserve.

Whether you joined us last year or are participating for the first time, we’re looking forward to seeing our community come together once again for a fun, meaningful event. Lace up your shoes, bring your friends, and help us make this year’s race even bigger and better.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support Happy Tails Happy Homes. We’ll see you at the starting line! 🏃‍♀️🐕❤️

🐾🤎 BIG PUPPY ENERGY 🤎🐾

These 8-week-old Chesapeake Bay Retriever/Shepherd mix puppies are officially accepting applications for full-time best friend positions. 🥹

This litter came to us as part of a local spay/neuter effort. Mama had her last litter, and we make sure she—and the other dogs on the property—get fixed so no more puppies have to be born without a plan. Now these babies are ready to find families of their own.

✨ 8 weeks old
✨ Expected to be LARGE when fully grown
✨ Sweet, social, and ready to take over your couch

And here’s the best part…
👀 You can meet them IN PERSON this Sunday at our Puget Hound Adoption Event! (6/7 • 12-2pm • 3710 Williamson Way, Bellingham)

Fair warning: showing up “just to look” has a very poor success rate. 😭🐾

you know what june means
🏳️‍🌈 pride
🐶 puppies
💅 being unapologetically ICONIC
and we’re here w one stop 3in1 solution for you to enjoy all 3😌 bc let’s be honest why buy pride gear from a corp who actually doesn’t care when you can support us and pups who do🤞🏼

‼️ https://www.bonfire.com/celebrate-pride-with-happy-tails-happy-homes/‼️

this year, our rescue pups will be strutting their stuff in the bellingham pride parade alongside the amazing Chuckanut Bay Rugby Club women's rugby team. honestly? the puppies are v ready to serve looks, steal hearts, and absolutely destroy everyone's emotional stability👀

🏳️‍🌈every shirt purchased helps provide🏳️‍🌈:
🐾 food
💉 vaccines
🩺 veterinary care
🚙 transportation from certain death in shelters
🏠 foster homes supplies
❤️ love, patience, and second chances

in a world that can feel a little chaotic, we're proud to stand for inclusion, kindness, community, and giving as many dogs as we possibly can the space to be safe and thrive✨

so if you've ever thought:
i like dogs
i support pride
i enjoy wearing shirts sometimes
💅🏼congrats bestie. you are our target audience💅🏼

grab a shirt, cheer on our pups in the parade, and help us continue saving lives one happy tail at a time😘

🌈happytailshappyhomes🌈 because every dog deserves a loving home, and every underdog deserves someone in their corner💖

🦖😌RAWR IM GENNARO😌🦖
3 months and 1 week old, part puppy, part parkour athlete, part tiny domestic terror in like a good way👀

she's never met a stranger, thinks every dog is a potential bestie, charms every vet she meets, and approaches life with the confidence of someone who has never trusted the wrong fart😭🤌 she loves neighborhood adventures, tree farm expeditions, climbing anything remotely climbable, and drinking water exclusively from the garden hose or kitchen sink like a tiny feral queen👑

she's already crushing crate training, learning recall, down, heel, and clicker work, and has figured out that sitting politely often results in snacks. fetch is still a work in progress because she thinks bringing the toy back is more of a suggestion than a rule🎾 it’s more fun that way💅🏼

she rides quietly in the car, slept through an outdoor concert, and has a tiny notch in one ear from a puppy wrestling incident that honestly just adds character😌

and before anyone falls in love with the cute puppy face, remember that malinois puppies are not normal puppies 😂 these dogs require a ridiculous amount of training, exercise, mental enrichment, structure, and time. gennaro is adorable but fr she’s hardwired w the factory settings of high voltage pure espresso☕⚡

for the right active, adventurous human, though, she's got all the makings of an incredible hiking, camping, backpacking, and adventure companion🏕️🫡

⛲️😭THEYLL BE THERE FOR YOUUU😭⛲️

do you have room in your life for a tiny cream-colored potato with legs because phoebe(black&tan) and rachel(cream) are each accepting applications for their very own personal assistant, snack distributor, and professional cuddle provider👀

these 1.5-year-old pekingese pug mix girls made their way to whatcom county through our amazing rescue partners at yakima humane society, proving once again that rescue really is a team sport🫶✨

and before anyone asks, no, they are not a bonded pair and are available for adoption separately 😌🤝

good with kids? absolutely.

good with dogs? yep.

good with every human they meet? honestly, it's getting a little suspicious at this point 😭

potty trained? queens.

obsessed with attention, affection, and snuggles? that is their full-time profession 🥺☁️

phoebe and rachel are the kind of dogs who somehow make every day feel softer, warmer, and just a little bit brighter. they're sweet, loving, ✨THEY ARE READY FIR THEIR OWN FOREVER HOMES✨ and carrying enough affection in their tiny little bodies to power an entire neighborhood 🥹💕

rescue doesn't happen because of one person or one organization. it takes shelters creating opportunities, rescue partners working together, foster homes opening their doors, volunteers giving their time, and adopters choosing to say "yes" when a dog needs them most ❤️🐾

every single person plays an important role in helping dogs like phoebe and rachel get the fresh start they deserve, and thanks to that teamwork, these adorable little nuggets are now ready to find families of their very own 🫶😭✨

🥝CUTIE KIWI🥝
say hi to this 13 week old 4 pound-ish floofy poodle mix who has already survived parvo kennel cough and the shelter system like girl has BEEN through it 😭❤️‍🩹

and somehow she still wakes up every day like omg hi bestie i love you so much 🥹 miss ma’am is now thriving in the pnw living her soft girl foster era with snacks naps and approximately 47 kisses per minute 💖

she’s working on potty training and crate training but pls remember she is literally a tiny cloud with legs and emotional support eyeballs 🥺 we don’t know much about her past before she landed in a high kill shelter in california but what we DO know is she deserves the happiest future imaginable 😭✨

also rescue is not about finding the fanciest breed it’s about giving sweet babies like kiwi the second chance they deserve 🫶 never met a person she didn’t immediately adore certified lovergirl behavior honestly 😭 if you want a tiny soulmate who acts like you hung the moon after handing her a treat pls apply to adopt sweet angel bb kiwi🥝💖✨
