Bruiser
Estimated age: 2 years
Gender: Male
Size: Small, 10 lbs
✅ Great with other dogs
✅ Great with cats
✅ Great with older kids, need more info for younger children
✅ House/crate trained (does have some separation issues)
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Bruiser is quite the love bug! This little guy would love a good lap to sit in all day or someone to hold him. He is so sweet and playful when he gets comfortable. Bruiser does well for baths and car rides, and stuffy toys are his favorite! Catch this little man burrowing under a comfy blanket to stay warm during his naps!
The best kind of home for Bruiser:
Bruiser will thrive in a home ready for a more clingy dog. He wants to be with people constantly and loves to be in a lap. He does show anxious behaviors when left alone (howling and barking), and he is deeply struggling to acclimate to the shelter. We expect little Bruiser to really blossom in a home where he can get all the attention he deserves.
Jiggy
Estimated age: 1 year
Gender: Female
Size: Medium, 65 lbs
✅ Lived with another dog
❌ No kitties for this girl
✅ Loves humans of all ages
✅ House/crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Jiggy is looking for a buddy! She is extremely wiggly and affectionate, and she is always looking for a good scratch. We have not known her long, so we're really getting to know her. But we already know she has never met a stranger and will fit right into an active-dog home.
The best kind of home for Jiggy:
Jiggy loves people, especially those willing to share a nice scratch and pet. Jiggy is never destructive with beds/blankets and is house/crate trained. She cannot live with cats, but she has done well in environments with other dogs.
Tiggy

Gender: Female
Size: Medium, 65 lbs
✅ Lived with another dog and is calm around them
❌ No kitties for this girl
✅ Loves humans of all ages
✅ House/crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Tiggy is irresistable! She draws you in with those bright eyes and perked-up ears, just looking for someone to pet all over her! She is extremely wiggly and affectionate, and Tiggy loves a good squeaky toy. We have not known her long, so we're really getting to know her. But we already know she has never met a stranger and will fit right into an active-dog home.
The best kind of home for Tiggy:
Tiggy is quite a superstar in public! She loves people, especially those willing to share a nice scratch and pet. She can be a bit timid in new environments, but with a bit of patience and neutrality, she perks right up! Tiggy is never destructive with beds/blankets and is house/crate trained. She cannot live with cats, but she has done well in environments with other dogs.
Niles
Estimated age: 8 months
Gender: Male
Size: Medium, 45 lbs
✅ Dog friendly
✅ Older kid friendly (lots of energy)
✅ House trained
✅ Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
This big-eared cutie is quite the sweetheart! He is smart, playful, and full of love. Niles is a quick learner and very food-motivated — perfect for teaching him new tricks and providing the structure all puppies need! With the right guidance, his boundless young dog energy can be channeled into lots of fun and positive activities. He is sociable, sweet, and incredibly playful. Niles loves a good romp with a dog friend, and he loves going for walks
The best kind of home for Niles:
If you’re looking for a cuddly puppy who can’t wait to learn and grow with you, Niles might be your perfect match! He is good with other dogs but has not yet been tested with cats. He loves people of all ages, but Niles needs some structure to interact with small children whom he could knock over. Niles has a big voice and he likes to use it! But he is house and crate trained and should fall right into home life.
Boone
Estimated age: 1 year
Gender: Male
Size: Small, 20 lbs
✅ Good interactions with dogs previously
✅ Good with cats in home
✅ House/Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Boone may be shaky on first impression, but this little guy is going to make you fall in love! He is affectionate and sweet and ready to cuddle up in a forever home. He was found as a stray, so we do not know much about his history. Boone is great with strangers in and out of the home, and loves a good chew. He walks well on a leash and can sometimes be anxious when left alone.
The best kind of home for Boone:
Boone is a young dog who probably hasn't seen much of the world. The best home for him will be with someone willing to teach and guide him. He is a sweetheart! So getting to know this guy affectionately should not be a problem at all. Boone does well with other dogs and cats but has not been observed around children.
Ella
Estimated age: 1 year
Gender: Female
Size: Medium, 35 lbs
✅ Great with other dogs
✅ Loves humans of all ages
✅ House/crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
You are going to LOVE Ella! She's the softest, bounciest girl we know -- always ready to play and snuggle. Ella loves people of all ages, even if she needs a very brief period of neutrality before being comfortable with them. She is very clean and not at all destructive, and she is calm in the car and at the vet. Ella loves to play with toys of all kinds, especially those she can fetch or tug. She is full of goofy energy and will keep you laughing all day!
The best kind of home for Ella:
Ella is a very active dog who would love a family ready to take her for adventures. She does brilliantly in public and is a sociable little pup. Ella is great with other dogs but has not been tested with cats. She is very patient with children, but she may need some time to acclimate in a new home. As is the case with any new pup!
Venus
Estimated age: 10 weeks
Gender: Female
Size: Estimated medium
✅ Dog friendly
✅ Kid friendly
✅ Cat trained
❌ House trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Venus is as sweet as they come! She is a smart, playful puppy who loves toys, has a healthy appetite, and is ready to romp, snooze, and grow in the coziness of a loving home. We expect her to be medium-sized adult dog (but who knows? They might surprise us!).Venus and her sister were found abandoned in a box in a parking lot, they were severely underweight, riddled with worms, and suffering from a terrible skin infection. With a few weeks of love and care, these resilient pups have made an incredible recovery and are now ready for their forever homes!
Serena
Estimated age: 10 weeks
Gender: Female
Size: Estimated medium

❌ House trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Serena is as sweet as they come! She is a smart, playful puppy who loves toys, has a healthy appetite, and is ready to romp, snooze, and grow in the coziness of a loving home. We expect her to be medium-sized adult dog (but who knows? They might surprise us!).Serena and her sister were found abandoned in a box in a parking lot, they were severely underweight, riddled with worms, and suffering from a terrible skin infection.

Layla
Estimated age: 3 years
Gender: Female
Size: Medium, 65 lbs
Time at LV: In a foster home
✅ Dog friendly
✅ Kid friendly
✅ Crate trained
❌ House trained
What my foster family says about me:
Layla is a fun-loving, energetic little dog! Her favorite activites are going for walks and swimming -- she is SUCH a water dog! This girl has never met a stranger and has such a wonderful temperament, even in stressful situations. With a little training, Layla could be the kind of dog you can take anywhere with you! She loves to destroy a good stuffy toy, but she never tears up her beds or blankets. She is great both in the car and at the vet.
The best kind of home for Layla:
Layla is looking for a home ready for adventure! She is an excited little girl with lots of energy to burn. Her best fit will be looking for an active dog to take hiking or for long walks, to play with her, and to teach her how to be the best girl she can be. She is used to water and loves swimming. She is mostly house trained but will need watched closely in a new environment. Layla does well with other dogs and children who are prepared for a high-energy pup! She has not been tested with cats but can be for an interested party.
Howard
Estimated age: 3 years
Gender: Male
Size: Large, 60 lbs
Time at LV: 4 months
✅ Dog friendly
✅ Kid friendly
✅ House trained
✅ Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Howard has such a great attitude about life! He is very sweet and loves to be wherever you are He does well for routine vetting, grooming, and rides well in the car. His favorite activities are running and chewing on toys. Howard is an active guy who had a pretty rough start to his time with us, but we know a great home out there for him. He always has something to say!
The best kind of home for Howard:
Howard does well with strangers in and out of the home, and he has done well previously with other dogs and children. We have not tested him with cats. Howard has been known to guard his resources, so feeding seperately from other animals and watching him carefully with toys and coveted items will be essential. This is an all-around great dog who will really make his future family happy.
Twix
Estimated age: 5 years
Size: XL, 160 lbs
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 8 months
✅ Dog selective (No small animals under 50 lbs)
❌ Cat friendly
✅ Kid friendly
✅ House trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Twix is the kind of dog it's impossible not to fall in love with. He is HUGE, but he is all love and affection. Twix will do anything for a treat, and you better believe a handful of drool is coming with it! He is a pretty sedentary giant, but he really enjoys his short walks. He did not have a great start to life, but Twix has found comfort in the safety of rescue. This big guy deserves to live the rest of his life in the comfort of a home where he can receive all the booty scratches he could ever dream of.
The best kind of home for Twix:
We are not exaggerating. This dog is massive. His adopter must be prepared to take on an older giant breed dog. He walks extremely well on a leash but will pull toward anything he finds exciting. Twix deserves a place where he can finally relax. Cats and small dogs are absolutely not negotiable for this guy as he will cause them serious harm given the chance. He does, however, do very well with dogs around 50 lbs and larger.
Cedar - Medical Foster Only
Estimated age: 7 months
Size: Unknown, estimated medium to large
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 6 months
✅ Dog friendly
✅ Cat friendly
✅ Kid friendly
❌ House trained
✅ Crate trained
The best kind of home for Cedar:
Cedar is looking for a foster to care for him and monitor his health while he undergoes care for a liver shunt. He will soon require a major surgery and will need a place to recover.
Like any pup, Cedar loves playing with toys and taking big, long naps. Despite his health issues, Cedar is a happy, spunky little guy who will steal your heart! He is doing well holding it overnight in a kennel and goes outside to potty most of the time. His future depends on his medical care and the careful watch of a foster family. Our staff can give serious potential fosters lots of information about what he will need.
Shawnee
Estimated age: 1 year
Size: Medium (56 lbs)
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 6 months
✅ Dog selective
✅ Cat friendly
✅ House trained
✅ Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Shawnee loves food and will do tricks for treats! This guy is impossibly cuddly and loves to be wherever the people are -- so much so that he has quite a bit of confinement anxiety. He can be a bit timid and jumpy with new sounds and sights, but we imagine Shawnee hasn't see much of the world yet. Shawnee was found as a stray, so his history is a mystery. He is extremely motivated by food and should be very easy to teach.
The best kind of home for Shawnee:
Shawnee is anxious and could greatly benefit from obedience training and confidence building. We do not know if he has been around small children, but he tested well with cats. Shawnee does well with select dogs who do not retaliate when he gets a little overstimulated. He should, however, be fed separately because of the intensity of his food drive. He loves to play chase with other dogs, but sometimes he gets too excited. He needs the right dog companion to balance that excitement level or to be the only dog in the home.
Zuma
Estimated age: 1 year
Size: Expected large, currently 50 lbs
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 9 months
✅ Dog friendly (selective)
✅ Cat friendly
✅ Kid friendly
❌ House trained
✅ Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Zuma is great big pup who loves to play, cuddle, walk, and nap! He does have some of the standard young dog behaviors such as chewing, and he is not house trained. But these are not out of the ordinary for a dog of his age, and he actually will hold it as long as he can inside. He has a lot of learning to do, so Zuma will need an adopter committed to working with and teaching a young dog new tricks. Even more than that, Zuma needs to learn how to exist in the world.
The best kind of home for Zuma:
Like any puppy, Zuma will require a committed family who can work with him to become the best boy he can be. He is mostly crate trained, but like any young dog, he cannot hold it for long! Zuma is reactive to other dogs, so he will need help learning to exist in spaces with them without interacting directly. He could work with another dog in the right environment, but most likely Zuma would be best as the only dog in the home. He has tested well with cats but can be rambunctious and annoying if left to his own devices. He needs some guidance and to learn basic obedience and manners. Our staff will give any potential adopter advice on how to best set Zuma up for success.
Oreo
Estimated age: 5 years
Size: Medium, 35 lbs
Gender: Female
Time at LV: 11 months
✅ Dog selective
✅ Cat friendly
❌ Kid friendly
✅ House trained
✅ Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Oreo is an extremely lovable, high-drive Australian Cattle Dog mix who needs someone more quick-witted than she is. She is extremely smart and will act on her drive in any elevated situation. This dog is not for the average pet owner, but she can be very sociable with adult humans in the right context. She is full of energy and would love an adult family that can take her for adventures.
The best kind of home for Oreo:
Oreo needs an adopter who will not allow her to push them around and will work her mind as well as her body. A fenced yard and neighborhood walks are not gonna cut it for this girl who was made to work! She is house trained and does well in a crate (plastic is best). We do not recommend Oreo for a home with children. This girl wants to work, and we hope she can find a home where she can do just that. We adore this dog and her intense personality, and we think she is going to be a great addition to the right home.
Maddox
Estimated age: 1 year
Size: Medium, 45 lbs
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 1 year
✅ Dog friendly
❌ Kid friendly
❌ House trained
✅ Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Maddox is young, outgoing, and ready to have all of your attention! He is hugely food motivated, playful, and loves to learn new things. His favorite things are playing with his dog friends and playing tug. This will greatly benefit his adopter, as he is a younger pup who needs lot of guidance. Maddox craves affection, but he is pent up and needs a VERY slow introduction to new people. His future family can help ease that excitement with walks and other activities to stimulate his brain.
The best kind of home for Maddox:
Maddox has a lot of pent up excitement in the shelter, which is why it is so important for him to find a home before bad habits become his way of life. He is extremely teachable and willing to learn, especially for food, but Maddox would greatly benefit from professional training. He will require someone who can read his cues and interact with him respectfully. His best chance would be with an enthusiastic adopter willing to teach an active young dog new things like how to walk on a leash and calmly ask for affection. He plays very well with other dogs but has not been tested with cats.
Molly
Estimated age: 4 years
Gender: Female
Size: Medium, 65 pounds
Time at LV: 1 year
❌ Dog friendly: Reactive and aggressive incidents previously
✅ Cat friendly: Happily lived with cats
✅ Teenager friendly: Very energetic and needs a capable handler
✅ House trained
✅ Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Molly is very energetic and enthusiastic and is very sociable with people. She likes playing with a ball and learning new things! Molly is very reactive to other dogs and has had aggressive incidents, specifically with dogs. She is a very strong, powerful girl who is difficult to manage without proper direction. With the right guidance, however, Molly is learning to be great on a leash. Because of her temperament, Molly is deeply struggling in the shelter, causing her to be anxious and drop weight dramatically. She does, however do extremely well when crated and given ample enrichment/stimulation.
The best kind of home for Molly:
Molly has shown that she is very receptive to appropriate guidance and enjoys clear direction. She was initially difficult to walk on a leash, but with the introduction of proper training tools, she is making great progress. She does well on low-trigger walks and would thrive in a home that could continue professional training. She could also do well in a more rural environment that allows her the freedom of being a dog without constant triggers (dogs). Molly really is such a cuddly, sweet playful dog who just needs someone who can balance her quality of life with her triggers.
Paisley
Estimated age: 3 years
Size: Medium, 50 pounds
Gender: Female
Time at LV: 1 year
❌ Dog friendly
❌ Cat friendly
❌ Kid friendly
✅ House trained
✅ Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Pretty Paisley loves attention and booty scratches from everyone she meets and is always happy to see a human friend. Some of her favorite activites include: playing tug, short adventure walks, and chasing the flirt pole. Paisley is full of energy and excitement, to say the least. She settles well in a kennel, but she loves being active. Paisley will make an excellent pet for an active-dog home (meaning her family actively spends productive time with her on a daily basis).
The best kind of home for Paisley:
Paisley gets very easily overaroused, so we do not recommend her for a family with children. She will need help learning to walk nicely on a leash as she is very strong and wants to chase small animals. Developing an off switch for her excited state will be very beneficial for her future family. She has a lot of energy that will require more fulfillment than daily neighborhood walks (examples: playing tug or with a flirt/spring pole, obedience training). Paisley will be a great pet dog for a family that can keep up her active lifestyle and manage her quirks.
Kai
Estimated age: 9 years
Size: Medium, 35 lbs
Gender: Female
Time at LV: 1 year
✅ Dog friendly
❌ Kid friendly
⚠️ Climbs fences
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
This girl is the best car buddy you can ask for. Kai is such a funny dog who will keep you entertained all day! Kai has some nervousness around strangers and prefers people who respect her space upon first meeting. She will be your buddy as long as you give her time to adjust! Once Kai gets to know you she is goofy, playful, vocal, independent, loves scratches, and still has a touch of mischief like she did when she was young.
The best kind of home for Kai:
Kai will make a great companion for someone willing to give her the space she asks for. She is sweet, silly, and cuddly once familiar, but she will lash out at a stranger. Kai does well with other dogs (meet and greet required) but should not live with young children. She is known to climb fences and should not be left outside unsupervised. Kai will need a home where her space is respected and affection comes on her terms. An ideal adopter will be an advocate for her in public settings and will keep strangers out of her space.
Duncan
Estimated age: 2 years
Size: Medium, 55 lbs
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 1 year
✅ Great with dogs of all shapes and sizes!
❌ Cat friendly
✅ Crate trained
✅ Kid friendly
❌ House trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Duncan is the sweetest, cuddliest guy we know! He is very affectionate once he gets to know you. He does need a little time and neutrality to feel comfortable meeting new people, but give him some space and he will come to you. Pictures barely do this cute face justice, and he loves to cuddle up next to a person he knows and trusts. Duncan is young, bouncy, and playful, as any pup should be. He plays like a young dog, but he loves the company of other dogs who also want to play. He is one of our best testers for other pups! Duncan walks very well on a leash.
The best kind of home for Duncan:
Duncan is young and adaptable, so with a family willing to put in the work, he will easily thrive. His nervousness can be greatly helped by investing in training and overall confidence building. He should meet any other dogs in the house before adoption and does not get along with cats. Duncan is not house trained, but he is crate trained. He should be supervised in a yard as his previous family said he could climb, but we have not seen this behavior.
Jett
Estimated age: 7 years
Size: Medium, 45 lbs
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 1 year
❌ Dog friendly
❌ Cat friendly
✅ Older kid friendly
✅ House trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Jett is a big hound dog with a big hound dog bark. He enjoys the company of staff, walks, eating, getting snuggles, and sniffing around in the play yard. His unique howls are a welcome song around the farm. He is still pretty anxious in the shelter despite spending more than a year here.
The best kind of home for Jett:
Jett has had a couple resource guarding issues since being in our care and should not live with other animals or young children. He mostly wants to spend his time sniffing around and being a hound dog!
Axton
Estimated age: 4 years
Size: Large, 70 lbs
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 1 year
✅ Great with dogs who want to play
✅ Older kids best because of size
❌ House trained
✅ Crate trained
⚠️ Climbs fences
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Axton is the first dog to say "hello" at Little Victories. He is a big excitable boy who loves people and getting lots of pets and affection. He is a very fun dog who will have loads of spunk for his future family to teach him new things! He does struggle with reactivity toward other dogs and moving objects and is big and strong. With a proper outlet for his high-drive personality, Axton will shine! He is very food motivated! He plays very well with most other dogs and has quickly become one of our best helpers for assessing new pups and their temperaments.
The best kind of home for Axton:
We highly recommend Axton go to a home willing to work with him on basic structure and give him an outlet for his drive. He is very reactive in the shelter environment and would benefit from professional training. His future family should be able to handle a very large, reactive dog. Axton does not love neighborhood walks in an overstimulating environment. He would be more fulfilled on a long hike or in a less stimulating environment. He must meet any other dogs in the home before adoption and should only live with older kids who can handle a boisterous dog of his size. Axton would be a very fun dog for anyone willing to put in some time harnessing his energy into a constructive outlet that builds the relationship between handler and dog!
Sixty
Estimated age: 2 years
Size: Medium, 45 lb
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 2 years
✅ Dog selective
✅ Cat friendly (with lots of supervision)
✅ Kid friendly
❌ House trained
✅ Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Found roaming Route 60, sweet Sixty is a majorly cuddly guy! He is very wiggly and happy to see anyone who crosses his path, rolling on the ground for immediate belly rubs. Sixty has grown up in the shelter, so he has a lot of learning to do. But this guy is SO willing to learn and will be a lot of fun to teach. He does very well with dogs who can match his play style, but Sixty can be a bully and must be supervised with other animals. Sixty loves children despite his size.
The best kind of home for Sixty:
Sixty needs a lot of help learning how to exist in the world, including house training, as he has spent most of his life with us. Like any adolescent pup, he will require a family dedicated to nurturing and teaching him to be a dog. He does well with other dogs and cats who can handle his energy. Sixty has not had a lot of socialization and does not always respect social cues from other dogs. He should be supervised when with other animals. He has a hard time understanding boundaries with other dogs and would likely do better as the only one in the house. Sixty could live with another dog if his family is willing to manage his overarousal. He should not be left unattended outside of a crate.
Pedro
Estimated age: 8 years
Size: Large
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 6 years
✅ Dog selective
❌ Cat friendly
✅ Older-kid friendly
⚠️ Home visit may be required
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
This fluffy bear can't wait for belly rubs every day. Pedro is a big guy who loves adults and having lots of room to run and play. Pedro likes going for walks and playing with toys -- balls are his favorite, especially large herding balls! He loves rolling around on his back and, like most malamutes, will serenade you with his singing voice. He is such a ham and will give you the puppy eyes for snacks, walks, and scratches.
The best kind of home for Pedro:
Pedro needs a home without cats or small children, but he is OK with select other dogs (meet and greet required). He loves being outdoors! This big guy needs a strong owner who can handle his size. He is not suitable for apartment life and would do best with a securely fenced yard. If deemed necessary, he may require a home visit for adoption as one of our Sanctuary Sweethearts.
Bart
Estimated age: 11 years
Size: Large, 95 lbs
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 6 years
✅ Dog friendly
❌ Cat friendly
✅ Older kid friendly
✅ House trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Dancing boy Bart does the cutest happy dance when it’s time to eat! He loves taking sniffy walks and enjoys lounging around in a big yard. He is a big, senior guy who won't require much in terms of burning energy. Mostly Bart just wants to hang out! He does have a thick double coat that will need regular grooming to maintain.
The best kind of home for Bart:
Bart is a big goofy guy who would ideally love to be the only king in his castle. Although he could potentially live with select dogs, he needs an adopter who can separate him from other animals in the house during meal times or when he has a special chew. This could look like giving him his own room to eat/have special bones in or putting him in a crate. He is a semi-active guy who would do well in a laid back home. He has lived at LV for more than four years, so time to adjust will be essential for this handsome guy! Bart has an enlarged heart and potential mass at the base of his heart. He is not in any pain, but a future adopter should be aware of potential issues in his future.
Pablo
Estimated age: 8 years
Size: Medium, 45 lbs
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 7 years
✅ Dog selective
❌ Cat friendly
❌ Kid friendly
✅ House trained
✅ Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Looking for all the excitement of a young dog without the challenges of puppyhood? Pablo is your guy! He always wants to play and can have fun with other dogs, as long as he doesn't get too rough. He knows some basic commands and would be a great dog to teach. Pablo loves to play in water. He needs some direction learning how to cope when he becomes overaroused, but he responds well to instruction and guidance. He does great in a public setting and loves attention from anyone who will give it!
The best kind of home for Pablo:
This boy is in need of an experienced adopter or foster who can manage his excitement levels. Pablo has been working on simple commands and would love for someone to further his training. He is high-energy, but he is also goofy and wants to play. Pablo is dog selective, so a meet and greet with other dogs in the home is mandatory. He plays well when other dogs match his energy. He has spent most of his life at LV, but Pablo could really thrive with the right family.
Sadie
Estimated age: 11 years
Size: Medium, 43 lbs
Gender: Female
Time at LV: 8 years
❌ Dog friendly
❌ Cat friendly
❌ Kid friendly
✅ House trained
✅ Crate trained
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Sadie lives for attention and sneaking bites of your snacks. She is always ready to say hello to a human friend! Sadie is the queen of spunk. She is a senior, but she has lots of energy and loves to play. After seven years in the shelter, Sadie would love to find a place to relax for the rest of her days.
The best kind of home for Sadie:
Sadie should not live with other animals as she has had altercations with other dogs. She does well with adults, but she should not live with children due to her excitability and anxiousness. She is house trained and walks well on a leash. Sadie will be a great dog in a home where she can be the star, and she would love a place to live out her senior years.
Zuri (adoption pending)
Estimated age: 12 years
Size: Large, 56 lbs
Gender: Female
Time at LV: 11 years
✅ Dog selective
❌ Cat friendly
✅ Older kid friendly
❌ House trained
✅ Crate trained
✴️ Adoption fee sponsored
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Want to see the fastest 12-year-old dog you've ever met get the zoomies? Zuri is unstoppable! Zuri is an excellent hiking or walking buddy! She loves car rides (especially sticking her head out of the sunroof) and going out for adventures. She is full of entertainment, and she loves having her ears rubbed! Give her a crinkly toy and a nice walk, and this girl will be so happy. Although she is starting to slow down in her senior years, she is still spunky for 12 and still has a lot of life to live!
The best kind of home for Zuri:
Zuri loves people, but she is not a fan of kitties. She is mostly house trained but she will need a bit of guidance. Supervision will be key, as with any dog. She has tested well with some dogs, so a meet and greet is required for any other dogs in the home. She would do better in a semi-active, adult only home. Zuri still has lots of spunk, but she knows how to relax.

Selia is one of our oldest residents and has recently been promoted to office dog. She loves car rides and walking in the park, but she needs supervision around other dogs. With the right family, Selia could possibly live with another pup. She is a very smart senior dog! Selia has lived at Little Victories for a very long time, so the transition to a home environment would likely be a challenge.
The best kind of home for Selia:
Selia will need an adopter willing to supervise her with other dogs and children. As one of our Sanctuary Sweethearts, she may require a home visit for any potential adopters if deemed necessary. She has spent her entire life at Little Victories, so she will need an adjustment period in her future home. She was diagnosed with cancer recently and only has a prognosis of three to four years. We hope she can find a peaceful place to live out her days comfortably.
Fifi
Estimated age: 11 years
Size: XL, 93 lbs
Gender: Female
Time at LV: 10 years
✅ Dog selective
❌ Cat friendly
✅ Older kid friendly
⚠️ Requires long-term medication (joints/arthritis)
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Fifi is a big dog who loves to lounge around. Fifi is very loyal and has lots of love to give! She is a laid-back girl who loves to be outside. Fifi is the kind of dog who loves to ruin a good bath with a roll in the dirt. She is extremely lovable to those she knows and trusts. She has spent most of her time at Little Victories outside, so a transition inside would be an adjustment. She has severe arthritis that limits her ability to walk or climb stairs.
The best kind of home for Fifi:
Fifi mostly ignores other dogs around her in the sanctuary. She has lived at Little Victories for most of her life, so the adjustment to a forever family would be difficult for her. We hope that would not stop a potential adopter or foster. She loves to be outside and could live in a securely fenced outdoor area. Fifi has not had much if any experience with kids, so we do not recommend her to be around children. As one of our Sanctuary Sweethearts, a home visit my be required if deemed necessary. She takes medications to help ease the pain of arthritis on her big dog joints.
Bolt
Estimated age: 14 years
Size: Large, 90 lbs
Gender: Male
Time at LV: 6 years
✅ Dog selective
❌ Cat friendly
❌ Kid friendly
❌ House trained
⚠️ Requires long-term medication (arthritis)
⚠️ May require home visit
⚠️ Hospice - terminally ill
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Bolt is in his final months of life. He has a cancerous mass on his liver and is not healthy enough for surgery. He is a great senior boy who loves to go on adventures and car rides! He loves people and would do well with older children who respect his space. Bolt should be separated from other animals for feedings as he tends to resource guard his meals. His ideal life would be spent exploring a fenced-in yard for the rest of his days. This big, sweet boy needs a place to spend the rest of his life in comfort. He may not get around well, but Bolt loves to walk and sniff and explore.
The best kind of home for Bolt:
Bolt would do best as an only pet, but he could work with select dogs if fed seperately. He's a big, senior dog who takes medication for arthritis twice a day. Bolt would love a home with a big fenced yard to explore. He may require a home visit, if deemed necessary, to adopt. As an older dog, he does best with people who respect his space and don't force his attention.
Sasha
Estimated age: 13 years
Size: Medium, 40 lbs
Gender: Female
Time at LV: 13 years
✅ Dog selective
❌ Cat friendly
❌ Kid friendly
✅ House trained
⚠️ Special needs (Deafness)
⚠️ May require home visit
What my friends at Little Victories say about me:
Sasha is always happy to see people she knows in the morning! Because she can't hear you coming, you can often catch her in the cutest positions snoozing away without a care in the world. She has spent most of her life at Little Victories, so the transition to a home environment would likely be very difficult for her. She loves to play with toys and go for walks like any dog! She would love to do so in a home for as long as she has left. With a clean bill of health, that could be years!
The best kind of home for Sasha:
Sasha is deaf and needs a family that can handle a special-needs senior. She needs a house with no kids, but she could possibly live with another dog if the environment is correct. Sasha has done well in a kennel. As one of our Sanctuary Sweethearts, Sasha may require a home visit if deemed necessary.
