My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

🎄🏡 Mitosis Is Hoping for a Home for the Holidays 🏡🎄

While homes are filling with lights, laughter, and family gatherings, Mitosis is still waiting for a place to truly call his own. This 2-year-old, 111 lb Shepherd mix is a big, lovable guy who brings joy wherever he goes. He loves playing fetch, tug-of-war with his canine foster sister (an SMS alum!), and ending the day curled up close to his people for cuddles.

Mitosis is smart, knows some basic commands, and enjoys structure. He does great with medium to large dogs, and his foster mom has been working with him around cats — with supervision, he’s doing very well, and we’re cautiously optimistic. Because he’s a big, strong boy, he’s looking for a family with large dog experience who can give him the guidance and activity he thrives on.

🎁 2 years old | 111 lbs
🐶 Dog-friendly (medium/large dogs)
🐾 Doing well with cats under supervision
🎾 Fetch & tug champ
🤗 Big-time cuddler
🩺 Fully vetted
💪 Large dog experience required

All Mitosis wants this season is a family of his own. If you have room in your heart — and on your couch — Mitosis would love to be home for the holidays. ❤️🎄

Additional adoption info

We do not use a first-come, first-serve process when adopting out our animals. Instead, we focus on best fit for each individual animal. The process is intended to ensure a long-term successful adoption for both the family and pet.

All of our adoptable animals have had a complete veterinarian checkup. Our dogs and puppies are heartworm tested. All of our animals are spayed/neutered, dewormed, and have received age-appropriate vaccines before going to their forever homes.

Feline adoption fees - $125 for kittens under 8 months, $100 if over 8 months, and $60 if over 9 years old.

Canine adoption fees - $350 for puppies under 1 year, $300 if over 1 year, and $200 if over 7 years old.
