Meet Peanut💙🥜 he just came back from a jailbreak from one of our amazing volunteers🥰 this was his adventure:
In the interest of mending my broken heart, I arranged a playdate with a puppy named Peanut who’s seeing his forever home.
I picked this little nut up from the shelter he calls home, and with my arms loaded up with toys and treats we set out for an adventure. Peanut had the usual reluctance to self load into a strange vehicle, but he was mostly tolerant of being boosted into his crate for the drive. He then displayed his vocal range during our drive-probably in an attempt to communicate his excitement for this event he had no say in. Once we were back on solid ground we spent some time getting acquainted by playing around in the leaves in my backyard before heading out for a stroll around the neighbourhood.
Peanut is an excellent loose-leash walker, and when we met a few dogs along the way he barked a quick hello and then was easily encouraged to move along.
Back at the house, Peanut showed some reluctance to conquer the staircase, but he is eager to please and enjoys his kibbles so eventually he conquered his fear and entered the magical land of “the upstairs.”
Peanut played enthusiastically with all his toys, gave lots of insight on how to properly puppy-proof the house, and learned the different types of traction he can achieve on carpet vs hardwood.
Finally Peanut’s human playmate was all played out we headed back to the shelter with the hope that our time spent together might help him find his forever family.❤️
If you or anyone you know is able to offer this sweet little nut a home- either as a temporary foster or a forever family please check out his profile for more information.
Thumper has captured the hearts of everyone at ARF with his outgoing and affectionate nature. A fun-loving and happy guy, Thumper enjoys nothing more than playing with his canine friends and exploring the great outdoors.🐕🦺 He’s a handsome and active boy who adores hiking, splashing in water, and engaging in interactive games like puzzles and Kongs.
Thumper is a quick learner, thriving on mental stimulation and motivated by treats. He’s mastered many basic commands and is actively working on crate training, making great progress with consistent efforts. 🌟Beyond his love for play, Thumper is incredibly cuddly and revels in receiving affection from his human companions.🥰
Thumper does wonderfully with all people, including children, and his loving nature shines through in every interaction.🧸 While he generally gets along well with most dogs in playgroups, he can sometimes feel uneasy around unfamiliar situations. He’s looking for a forever home that can provide him with structure, routine, and the reassurance of a reliable caregiver. Although he experiences some separation anxiety, his stress levels diminish with a predictable routine, positive structure and a supportive presence.
Thumper tends to bond well with confident female dogs and would thrive in a home where he can have a canine companion who shares his love for play and exploration.🐶🐾 If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a loyal and affectionate companion then Thumper is the boy for you. Apply online!
I’m a young pup, full of life and ready to explore the world.
I’ve got a personality that’ll make your heart melt. I’m friendly to everyone I meet, including other dogs, and I’m always ready for a cuddle.🥰 I’m gentle with my affections and loyal to all who show me kindness.
Adopting me means gaining a friend who’ll be by your side, through thick and thin, cheering you up on gloomy days and celebrating with you in happy times.♥️
I promise, I’ll make every day brighter and every moment more memorable. So, how about it? Could you be my forever home?🏡🐶
ARF says that if you’re interested in adopting me, you can find more information on their website. Link in bio!🐾

Yin if female and Yang if male. Thought of that based on the split colouring. So cute
Raven, Mystique is to long and weird for a dog. Basic an simple is best
Human names are so much better. Run Spot Run.
