Meet Ranger! This sweet, goofy Australian Shepherd mix is guaranteed to steal your heart and brighten your home. Ranger is one of those dogs who loves everyone he meets and truly wants nothing more than to be part of a family. He’s incredibly friendly, food-motivated in the funniest way, and always ready to make you laugh with his adorable personality.
Ranger does have a developmental issue in one of his front legs, and he will soon be a tripod. He’ll do wonderfully on three legs, but he will need crate rest for an extended period after his surgery. Because of that, we would love for him to go into a foster-to-adopt home beforehand—someone who can keep an eye on him and help him recover safely. Ranger is very easy to keep entertained with busy bones, frozen stuffed KONGs, peanut-butter frisbees, and pretty much anything his little chunky self can snack on. He LOVES food!
He does fantastic with other dogs and has shown only normal puppy curiosity toward cats—no negative behavior at all. Ranger is a phenomenal dog with so much love to give, and he’s more than ready to start his new chapter with a family who will adore him as much as he adores them.
If you’re looking for a sweet, silly, and resilient pup to love forever… Ranger is your guy. 💙🐾Puppies 6 months and under are typically $200 and dogs from 7 months to 6 years are typically $100.00. The adoption fee may be higher or lower than stated however, and is dependent on many factors including age, behavior, medical condition and demand. All dogs 7 years and older are free under our Saving Seniors program. We frequently run discount specials and occasionally a dog will be more than the stated fee.
Most cats and kittens are $35.00, however there may be instances in which the fee is higher or lower, due to age, behavior, medical condition or demand. With felines, we always have an "Adopt one, bring another one home for free" adoption special!

We take all animals brought to us: strays, ferals, dogs, cats, and also, personal pets on a case by case basis. We provide a loving temporary home until they can be placed in a permanent home. We are not a "no kill" shelter, however, we do not euthanise for time nor space. We treat all animals as individuals and temperament test them for adoptability. This way, no one slips through the system, and we know each and every personality in the house. So, if you are looking for a pet, we can help match you with the perfect friend who will fit your lifestyle.
