Meet Sesame! This 5-year-old, 31lb Beagle mix is a very gentle, sensitive boy who is still learning that people can be trusted. After coming from a large-scale breeding situation, Sesame is understandably overwhelmed by the changes around him and needs plenty of patience as he adjusts to the good life. While he's not ready to seek out human affection just yet, he has shown no signs of aggression, just a submissive, nervous demeanor. He will need a quiet, patient home willing to let him move at his own pace. One thing that helps Sesame feel more comfortable is having another dog around. He noticeably perks up around canine friends, wagging his tail, sniffing, and even giving them sweet face licks. He seems much more relaxed when he has a dog companion nearby and may benefit from a confident, friendly canine sibling. Sesame has lots of confidence to build, but he deserves the chance to learn what a safe, loving home feels like. His perfect family will understand that earning his trust may take time, but every little bit of progress will be incredibly rewarding.

Meet AJ! This 3.5-month-old, 25lb mixed breed puppy is the sweetest little wiggle baby with a big personality! AJ came to Wags as part of a cruelty case and despite everything he's been through, he's remained incredibly friendly, affectionate, and eager to connect with people!

She enjoys playing tug, wrestling, and snuggling up together on the couch. She's even doing wonderfully with her foster's Great Dane, so she's comfortable hanging out with the big dogs. Pearl would love a playful canine companion to keep her company, but she'd also be happy as a spoiled solo pup. She's also a great little traveler who enjoys car rides and loves sticking her head out the window to see what's happening. Pearl is fantastic on leash and has the funniest habit of carrying her leash in her mouth while she walks! Like any young puppy, Pearl is still working on her potty training, but she's doing well with crate training and sleeps soundly in her crate at night.
