My story

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

Ember is a happy, playful girl with a love for the outdoors. She has a fun, energetic personality and enjoys active playtime and time outside with her people and other dogs.

Like many young, enthusiastic dogs, Ember can get a little mouthy when she is excited and is still learning good manners. She is also curious and enjoys chewing, so having plenty of appropriate toys and gentle guidance will help her succeed. With consistency and patience, she is eager to learn.

Ember would do best with adopters who are ready to help her learn and grow, celebrate her progress, and enjoy her playful spirit. With love, structure, and a little time, Ember will be a wonderful companion.

Ember is one year old and weighs 52 pounds.

The adoption fee for adult dogs, seven months and older, is $250. All pets are microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and will be altered prior to adoption. If you are interested in meeting a dog, please stop by the shelter during open hours. Dogs may be in a foster home, therefore scheduling an appointment is recommended. If you have an existing dog at home, we recommend bringing it along to meet your possible new family member.

More about this shelter

We promote the humane care of all abandoned and stray animals in our community. We are a no-kill shelter. All of our pets leave the shelter for their forever homes micro-chipped, up to date on vaccines, and altered.

Founded in 2002, Helping Strays is a non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization supported entirely by donations.

Our lucky animals receive appropriate medical care, are featured on the Helping Strays website "adoption list" and are taken to several adoption events every month in an attempt to find permanent, loving homes.
