Isai, mixed breed

Isai is a male mixed breed puppy staying at Bideawee.

Isai is a social animal — he'll get along great with cats, dogs and kids. He's already been neutered.

From Isai's current caretaker:

Isai just arrived to Bideawee after making the long journey from Puerto Rico, and we couldn't be any happier to have him! Isai is just under 4 months old and weighs 16 pounds. He's currently living with his five siblings, and these cuties love to play and cuddle. After an intense play session involving lots of squeaky toys, these pups love nothing more than to sleep in a giant puppy pile. Isai would do great with a furry friend, as he enjoys the company of his siblings so much.

Do you dream of coming home everyday to your biggest fan and best friend? Meet Duke, the 6-and-a-half-month-old boy whose joy cannot be contained! This pup is almost 40 pounds of pure love and happiness. His favorite hobbies are currently playing fetch, tossing his toys around and galloping around the playroom like a mini pony. Duke loves people and is super friendly. He has no problems showing his utter excitement for meeting new people and other pups, but he's learning good manners so he can be more polite!

Lucas, mixed breed

Lucas is a lovable male mixed breed puppy being cared for at Bideawee.

Lucas likes to socialize, and he loves cats, dogs and children. He's already been neutered.

Lucas' current caretakers say:

Poor sweet Lucas has been on a nerve-wracking journey since his owner decided he no longer wanted him. Luckily he's made his way back to Bideawee, and we've promised him that he'll get plenty of love and treats while he waits for his forever home. Lucas is just 7 months old and is playful, walks well on his leash and loves to play! He's pretty much house-trained, knows all of his "good boy" commands like "sit" and "lay down" and is eager to learn more! Lucas is an adorable sweetheart who deserves a loving and stable home.
