Amy Madigan

Amy Madigan

Adopt

Mixed breed · 10 yrs · female

Okay, so I may not have many teeth, but I've got smiles for days — especially when dinner's coming or my favorite person walks through the door. I'm a low-key, big-hearted homebody who takes a little time to warm up, but once I do? I'm your shadow. Your lap warmer.

Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

Adopt

Mixed breed · 4 yrs · male

Looking to bring home a gentle giant with a heart of gold? Don’t think twice! I love spending my time cuddling and relaxing with my people, or hanging out with other pups. I have a gentle and dainty play style, and can sometimes be a little shy.

Boom

Boom

Adopt

Mixed breed · 6 yrs · female

How ‘bout them Dawgs! Hi, I’m Boom—a calm, steady senior pup with soft energy and a big heart ready for a home of my own. Like my namesake from UGA football lore, I don’t sprint out of the gate—but once I warm up, I’m the quiet MVP of cuddles, couch time, and peaceful walks.

Boots

Boots

Adopt

Mixed breed · 2 yrs · male

This Boots was made for walkin'... to the park, that is! If you’re looking for a fun, silly vibe, then I’m your guy. I love playing outside and—no surprises here—going for long walks.

Carla Espinosa

Carla Espinosa

Adopt

Mixed breed · 3 yrs · female

Walks? Absolutely my thing — I will explore every corner of this city with a grin on my face and a nose to the ground. But don't let the adventure fool you: the moment we get home, I'm climbing into the nearest lap like it's my full-time job.

Cleopatra

Cleopatra

Adopt

Mixed breed · 4 yrs · female

Don't let the composed exterior fool you — I've got layers. Sure, I'm the calm one in the room, the one who takes her time before asking for your attention attention. But get on my good side and I'm a full-time cuddle companion who will boop your hand until you pet me again.

Eddie Kendricks

Eddie Kendricks

Adopt

Mixed breed · 6 yrs · male

If you live a quieter life, love the outdoors, and believe that senior dogs deserve second chances, I might just be the one you’ve been waiting for! I’m a senior boy with a big heart and a touch of anxiety. In loud, busy environments, I sometimes struggle.

Flaco

Flaco

Adopt

Mixed breed · 1 yr · male

I escaped a life that didn't quite fit and landed somewhere much better — sound familiar? Every walk is a full investigation, every new smell a breaking story, and every snuggle session a well-earned reward. I'm a little clumsy, a lot curious, and genuinely up for anything.

Freret

Freret

Adopt

Mixed breed · 2 yrs · female

Exploring is kind of my thing. New smells, new streets, new people to charm — I'm here for all of it. I'm gentle, I'm friendly, and I have a signature move that involves putting my paws on your shoulders and making you feel like the most important person in the room.

Golden

Golden

Adopt

Mixed breed · 7 yrs · female

Rolling around on the floor, winning over strangers with a single soulful look, chasing a scent that only I can smell — that's basically my whole vibe. I'm goofy in the best way, and I warm up fast once I've locked eyes with you (fair warning: the eye contact gets intense).

Iris

Iris

Adopt

Mixed breed · 9 yrs · female

Wandered into this world like a goddess with somewhere better to be — and turns out, that place is Brooklyn. I'm a low-key, affectionate soul who's most at home sprawled on a dog bed surrounded by people who don't mind when I nudge their hand for more pets.

Jane Goodall

Jane Goodall

Adopt

Mixed breed · 9 yrs · female

I’m a gentle, low-key soul who believes the best adventures happen from a cozy couch. I win people over quietly — with soft eyes, a calm presence, and a well-timed head resting in your lap. I adore companionship and thrive in peaceful spaces where love is steady and unhurried.

JD

JD

Adopt

Mixed breed · 3 yrs · male

The second I meet someone, I'm in. No awkward getting-to-know-you phase, no slow warm-up — I just decided we're friends now, and that's that. I'm the kind of guy who knows how to exist in a home like I've always lived there. Walkies? Obsessed. Cuddles after? Obviously.

Jonquel Jones

Jonquel Jones

Adopt

Mixed breed · 5 yrs · female

My people say I'm a team player, and honestly? Guilty. I'm at my best when there's someone to cuddle with, a dog to wrestle in the morning, and a lap to pass out in by evening. I'll greet you like you just won a championship — jumping up, asking for pets (it's cute, I promise).

Justine Biagi

Justine Biagi

Adopt

Mixed breed · 9 yrs · female

Once I decide a place is mine, I tend to settle in pretty quickly — grab a toy, find a cozy spot, let's hang. I like to take a beat with new people before I go full goofball, but it doesn't take long.

Kyra Milligan

Kyra Milligan

Adopt

Mixed breed · 5 yrs · female

Kyra is currently staying with our boarding partner outside the city. Check back for more information about her soon!

Nikola Jokic

Nikola Jokic

Adopt

Mixed breed · 3 yrs · male

Napping on the hardwood in the middle of the room? That's my move. I'm the guy who makes the neighbors stop mid-construction to say something nice, who walks at your pace and leans against your legs when we sit outside.

Perry Cox

Perry Cox

Adopt

Mixed breed · 5 yrs · male

Snuggling? My cardio. Napping with my tongue out? My sport. Being wherever my people are? My whole personality. I'm goofy, I'm gentle, and I take couch real estate very seriously. I get along with dogs, I'm cool with cats, and once I'm comfortable somewhere, I am all in.

Saja

Saja

Adopt

Mixed breed · 5 yrs · male

They call my namesake a demon hiding behind a pretty face and a flawless stage presence. I'm not here to confirm or deny anything — I'll just say I came all the way from Georgia, passed my cat test without a scene, charmed every dog I've met, and learned "sit" in a day.

Shawn Johnson

Shawn Johnson

Adopt

Mixed breed · 6 yrs · female

They don’t call me Shawn Johnson for nothing. I may be petite, but I stick the landing every single time… especially when it’s into your lap. I’ve mastered the balance beam of couch life—calm, graceful, and gold-medal at cuddling—and I greet new people like it’s the Olympic final…

Sunbeam

Sunbeam

Adopt

Mixed breed · 5 yrs · female

You’ll totally get my name when you meet me: I really am as bright and friendly as a sunbeam! I’m sweet as can be and love meeting new people. My happy place is outside, whether I’m exploring, going for a long walk, or taking in all the yummy smells of the outdoors.

Treasure Chest

Treasure Chest

Adopt

Mixed breed · 3 yrs · male

I’m very aptly named—I really am a treasure! I’m a very silly and active guy who just wants to spend hours playing with my people. Now I just need to find the perfect forever family to head to the park with!

Tucks

Tucks

Adopt

Mixed breed · 1 yr · male

I didn't come with beads or a float, but I showed up ready to have a good time. I bond fast, I love a crowd, and I'll find my way onto your couch before you even finish introductions. I've got energy when it counts and calm when it matters.
