Tulip Est DOB 4/22/2018 Female Poodle Mix

Meet Tulip, a sweet girl who came to us after the commercial breeder she lived in closed down. She never received the care, socialization, or support every dog deserves, but she’s already showing us how much heart she has.

Tulip is shy with people, yet she allows gentle handling and will let you pick her up. With patience and kindness, she’s beginning to show curiosity toward the affection she’s getting from our staff and volunteers. Watching her discover that humans can be safe is incredibly rewarding. She is good with other dogs, but we are not totally sure about cats though.

She’ll need gentle guidance as she learns about life in a real home — things like housebreaking, normal household noises, and everyday activities such as a dishwasher running or a TV turned on. With time and reassurance, she’ll blossom.

At the sanctuary, Tulip is loving her new freedom and the comfort of being with other dogs. She’s sweet, soft‑natured, and has all the potential to become an amazing family member for someone who understands that progress comes in small, beautiful steps.

If you’re looking for a tender soul to nurture and celebrate as she grows, Tulip may be the perfect match.

* Would do best in a home with no small children

Medical Alert: During routine vetting, Tulip was found to be heartworm positive. She is currently receiving medications to slowly kill off the heartworms and is doing very well. Hope Rescues will continue to pay for the medical care associated with the heartworms until she tests negative.

Dahlia Est DOB 4/22/2022 Female Poodle / Shih Tzu Mix

🌸 Dahlia — A Gentle Soul Learning to Bloom

Meet Dahlia, a beautiful 2‑year‑old Havanese/Poodle mix weighing about 10–12 lbs. She was rescued from a commercial breeder, so the world is still a very big, very unfamiliar place to her. Dahlia is shy and easily overwhelmed, but beneath that fear is an incredibly sweet, gentle girl who wants to trust.

Even when she’s scared, Dahlia has never tried to bite. She’ll let you pick her up, hold her close, and reassure her that she’s safe. With patience, kindness, and a predictable routine, she will continue to blossom.

Dahlia would do best in a calm home with another friendly dog who can help her learn that life isn’t so scary after all. She’s great with other dogs, and while we’re not sure about cats, her soft temperament suggests she may adjust with slow introductions.

Because she’s timid and sensitive, Dahlia would thrive in a home without young children.

If you’re looking for a tender, quiet companion who just needs someone to show her what love feels like, Dahlia is ready to start her new chapter.

Bug Est DOB 4/22/2019 Male Poodle/Maltese mix

Meet Bug, an adorable 4‑year‑old Poodle mix who weighs less than 5 lbs but has a heart big enough to fill a whole home. Bug came from a commercial breeder, so the world is still a very new and overwhelming place for him. He’s shy, cautious, and taking everything one small step at a time — but he’s also incredibly sweet, gentle, and willing to trust.

Despite being scared, Bug has never tried to bite, even when he’s unsure. He’ll let you pick him up, hold him close, and reassure him that he’s safe. With patience and kindness, he blossoms.

Bug would thrive in a calm home with another friendly dog who can show him the ropes and help him learn that life can be soft, predictable, and full of good things. He’s great with other dogs, and while we’re not sure about cats, his gentle nature suggests he may adjust with proper introductions.

Because he’s so tiny and timid, Bug would do best in a home without young children.
