Animal shelters and pet rescue groups work hard to care for unhoused pets and connect them to loving homes. Hoodline used data from Petfinder to power this roundup of puppies currently available for adoption.

Calli, terrier mix

Calli is an adorable female terrier puppy currently residing at Take Paws Rescue.

Calli loves other dogs. She's already house-trained. Calli is vaccinated.

Calli's current caretakers say:

Calli is a young, mixed breed lady, likely between 6-10 months old. She's got the kindest face and funkiest little ears. She is dog friendly and child friendly. Callie is equally as affectionate as she is playful. She loves to throw down with her doggie friends, but is just as content cuddling with you in bed all day. She is very smart and took all of two days to be potty trained; she's now working on learning her commands.
