They call me Cyrus!

You know that feeling when you meet someone for the first time but it feels like you’ve known them forever?

I spent the first seven years of my life in an animal testing laboratory and I’ve decided I’ll spend the rest of my life being someone’s reason to head on home.

I’ll be your good boy.

Hi, I’m Trey!

I was thinking - now, hear me out - I was thinking you and I could be a dynamic duo.
I’ll be your faithful sidekick! I’m really good at staying close and following your lead.

Think of all the things we could do together…
We could leap tall buildings and go for long walks.
We could use my super smeller to find all the food and use your super bank card to buy it.

We can power through all the episodes of Archer. (I love TV!)
We’ll bravely patrol our neighborhood for squirrels and other unsavories.
We’ll always have each others’ backs and you’ll always scratch mine!

I’ll keep your secret identity so no one will know that you’re really my superhero.

Larry: Homebody Seeking Kindred Spirit

My name is Larry and I’m looking forward to the next chapter of my life… with you?
I’m looking for somebody who “gets” me.
I spent the first 7 years of my life in an animal testing laboratory and I’m just starting to learn what it means to be free.
I have so many firsts in my future, will you share them with me?

I’m a nose down, tail up beagle sniffing my way through my days.
I’ll follow you, and not just to the kitchen, and I don’t mind a little PDA.
Late night treats and binge-watching TV, backyard sunbathing, and neighborhood walks are my jam.

Sure, I’m a confident fella and I may act independent, but sometimes the darn ball roll under the sofa: that’s where you come in!

I know my special someone is out there and I can hardly wait to get started on my new life. read more

Hey everyone, it’s me, Scotty!

I didn’t really know who I was in the world, but it seems I’ve made a bit of an impression since entering this strange world called freedom. I happen to over hear my foster talking about me and it made me cry to know how far I’ve come. Guess what they were saying?

They said I’m eating and drinking “normally” whatever that means and I admit, I do love taking those special treats out of their hands. They are so yummy and I seem to get them for doing nothing at all. My foster loves that I like meeting new people and says I’m very “friendly”, which I’m guessing is a good thing! The vet staff love me too, I think it’s because I put my head on all of their laps - it’s just so cozy and I get more head rubs that way!

Apparently I still need some work with the doggy door - who knew you could just walk in and out freely, I’m still in awe of that and what they call nature. I saw a hummingbird yesterday and my foster said that it meant joy - well I believe that because I sure feel joy nowadays. In fact I have so much joy that I’d like to share some with a special family to call my own. read more

Hi, I’m Mikey!
Have you been looking for me?

If you’ve been searching for someone to share adventures big and small, who won’t judge your wardrobe or correct your grammar and will stick by you through thick and thin, look no further: I’m your good boy!
I’ve been looking for you, too.

I just got out of an animal testing laboratory after seven long years and I’m still a little skittish, but I’m already loving gentle pets and scratches and I’m learning to walk on a leash, and I’ll follow you everywhere.

I’m looking for someone to trust and give my heart to, someone to help me learn about this whole new world I’m in, someone to just let me be me. read more

Hi there, I am Stevie!

I’ll tell you, there was a time a short while ago when I didn’t think I had much of a future. I looked at the same 4 walls everyday and heard crying and whining but could not help anyone - or myself. I never thought it would end until one magical day it just did!

Now I watch my dog friends do something I didn’t even think you could do….you see, there are these round rubbery things that seem to fit perfectly in a dog's mouth and when the human throws it, my dog friend runs after it, grabs it and brings it back to the human. I would have never thought to do this, but it actually looks kind of fun. The nice human was looking at me and calling out but I’m a little scared still. She threw it again and again and my dog friend kept playing. It seemed to bring both of them so much happiness and I realized that I would like to make someone happy too.

Anyway, this seems to be the present moment and hopefully the future I never thought I’d have so I’m here, waiting for a forever family to throw the ball my way. read more

Good day, Pippen over here.

This is my first taste of freedom after 7 years in a laboratory. It is a pleasure to breathe clean air, eat food slowly and enjoy human company. I think I could become accustomed to the good things in life. I never thought I deserved them or was even destined for them - but here I am. Living, breathing, playing, walking and loving every minute of my sweet freedom.

The world is my oyster or should I say my playground or should I say my ticket to endless love, treats and cuddles! read more

Me me!!!! I’m Carey

My friends and I were just sprung! I don’t think we deserved to be locked up, but there we were. I’m not even sure why they let us out but I sure am grateful! Now I’m not looking back, only forward for me. I still get a little scared around those 2 legends, but so far I’ve been treated like a king. Cushy beds, cool grass, rubs and pets anytime I walk by - I had no idea those humans could be sooo nice! I even get to do on walks in the fresh air, sometimes up to 3 times day.

AAAHHH Life is good now and I’m looking to do this kind of thing forever. How about you? read more
