Meet Mikey!

If you remember the classic adventure film The Goonies, then you know Mikey was the heart of the crew—the brave, kind, determined leader who believed in happy endings. Our Mikey may not be searching for pirate treasure, but he is absolutely searching for something just as special… a forever family.

Mikey and his siblings were found living in an abandoned house, and like the kids in The Goonies, their story was heading toward a rough ending. Thankfully, someone noticed them and called for help. When our team arrived, we discovered the whole little family: their sweet momma, who we safely trapped, and their devoted dad sitting nearby wagging his tail beside the trap. He wasn’t about to leave his girl behind! So naturally… we rescued the whole family. ❤

Now Mikey is safe, loved, and ready for the next chapter of his adventure. At just 2.5 months old, Mikey is everything you’d hope for in a puppy—happy-go-lucky, playful, curious, cuddly, and just a little bit mischievous. He and his siblings were clearly born for adventures, epic nap sessions, toy battles, and snuggling up after a long day of puppy shenanigans.

Just like his namesake, Mikey seems to have that gentle, soulful energy that draws you in. He’s gorgeous, with the softest fur you’ll ever feel and those big, expressive eyes that make you wonder what kind of adventure he’s dreaming about next.

His DNA would likely reveal a little bit of everything—true mystery mutt style! You can see what mom and dad look like, unless some other charming suitor snuck into the storyline along the way. Either way, Mikey turned out absolutely adorable.

Of course, bringing home a puppy is its own grand adventure. There will be messes, chewed toys, training sessions, zoomies, and the occasional moment where you wonder how someone so small can cause so much chaos. But there will also be laughter, loyalty, cuddles, and a best friend who grows up by your side. And Mikey's foster mom reports he's picking up on potty training like a champ!

If you’re ready for the lifelong commitment of a puppy—and all the joy, patience, and love that comes with it—Mikey might just be your perfect adventure partner. Hey you guys… Mikey is ready to find his forever crew. Apply at the link below.

Mikey is being neutered the first week of April and will be ready to travel to his forever home after he heals up.
