My story

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

Meet Addie! This sweet girl came into the shelter with her siblings on December 10, 2025 when their owner had too many animals and could no longer care for them. When Addie first arrived, she was terrified—shut down, huddled in the corner, and clearly overwhelmed by the sudden change in her world.
Thanks to the love, patience, and gentle encouragement from our dedicated staff and dog walkers, Addie’s true personality is beginning to shine brighter every single day. Her confidence is growing, and her sweetness is impossible to miss.
Addie is 1 year and 4 months old, current on vaccinations, and once she knows you, she will love you with her whole heart. She will thrive in a calm, loving home with someone who has the time, patience, and compassion to help her settle in and learn her new home life and routine.
She had to learn how to walk on a leash, and while she’s taken to it nicely, she does best when you remain gentle and let her guide you. Watching her transformation—from a frightened pup to a dog who now runs and plays fetch with a toy or tennis ball—truly warms the heart.
Addie is a wonderful girl who deserves all the goodness and love one has to share. Maybe you have the perfect forever home she’s been waiting for?
Come meet Addie and see just how special she is. 💕🐶

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.
