My story

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

Meet Peanut, a gentle young mama who arrived at the shelter on September 8, 2025 after her previous owner could no longer care for all their animals. She came to us very pregnant and proved to be an amazing mother to her babies. Now that her pups are ready for adoption, it’s Peanut’s turn to find the loving home she truly deserves.
Peanut is about 1 year old, current on her vaccinations, and the perfect medium-sized pup. She has a sweet, affectionate nature and is sure to bring companionship, joy, and lots of heartwarming moments to her lucky adopter.
If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion with tons of potential, stop by the shelter to meet Peanut. With a little time to settle in and get to know her new home and people, she’s sure to thrive — and fill your life with smiles, love, and gratitude.

More about this shelter

We are a non-profit orginization relying on donations. We do have a contract witht the county to provide shelter for strays brought in. We have limited space but try to get our animals back to thier families and if that can not be accomplished we work hard on finding them new homes.
We do what we do because we love animals. We are realistic in in efforts, understand the problem and work towards educating the public on what needs to be done to prevent over population.
