My story

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

Meet Christmas Lights!

Just like her name, Christmas Lights has a gentle sparkle that’s impossible to miss. This sweet girl has been moved around quite a bit in her young life, and she’s ready—more than ready—for a stable, loving forever home to help her shine.

Christmas Lights gets along beautifully with other dogs and often takes a more submissive role. With the right companions, her true personality begins to bloom. During playtime, she warmed up quickly—enjoying some light wrestling, playful chasing, and finishing with a happily wagging tail. It’s clear she wants to have fun… she just needs a little confidence and encouragement to feel safe enough to be her joyful self.

She’s a tender-hearted pup who will thrive with patience, kindness, and a calm environment. In return, she’ll give you her trust, her loyalty, and all the quiet sweetness she carries.

Christmas Lights is searching for a forever home where she can finally settle in, build her confidence, and glow as bright as she deserves. Could that be with you? 🐾✨

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We ask potential adopters to fill out a matchmaker form. When they are ready to adopt an animal and the form and interview process indicates a good match, we have the adopter sign an adoption contract promising that the animal will receive good physical and emotional care. Fees vary and we often have adoption specials. Fees for senior pets are sponsored. Otherwise, dogs are $100, puppies $150 and up, cats are $75, kittens are $95.
