Story
Meet Thumper – A Sweet Pup Ready for His Fresh Start Thumper is an 8-month-old border collie mix weighing about 30 lbs. This handsome young pup may have had a rough start in life—he was found out in a field with his brothers—but he hasn’t let that dim his spirit.Thumper is very friendly with both people and other dogs. He’s the kind of pup who wants to be everyone’s friend and is always happy to be part of the action. Despite his early challenges, he’s shown just how resilient and loving he is. With a little patience, guidance, and consistency, he’s going to blossom into an amazing companion.Thumper would thrive in a home that can give him structure, encouragement, and plenty of love as he continues to grow and gain confidence. In return, you’ll get a loyal, joyful best friend who’s ready to take on the world by your side.Quick Facts:Name: ThumperAge: 8 monthsWeight: ~30 lbsBreed: Black Lab/Shepherd mixPersonality: Friendly, eager to please, resilientDog-friendly: YesPeople-friendly: YesTraining: Learning basic commandsThumper is a diamond in the rough—full of potential, love, and puppy charm. All he needs now is a family to give him the chance he deserves.Thumper just spent a week in a foster home! Staff watched a shy puppy walk out of the shelter at the beginning of the week, scared to even walk on our linoleum floors, and a confident young pup walk confidently back in at the end of the week. This is the magic of foster care! Here`s what foster mom has to say about Thumper:`Thumper has been such a delight this week!! He is such a happy and energetic sweet boy! All he wants is love and snuggles and do the occasional zoomie in the backyard! Thumper is amazing around small kids and wants to give them all the love. He is great on walks! Wants to say hi to every person and dog he meets. Prefers to take the long, scenic route around cats. He would definitely benefit from more training and consistency. Other than that, he is going to make a great companion or family dog to whoever chooses him! `The foster family also reported, he did great with their cat. Thumper is still getting used to riding in the car and could use more practice with that so he can accompany his new family on all of their adventures!

Story
Maisy is a 4-year-old dog that I adopted from a rescue and have cared for for the past three years. She is a wonderful companion who loves playing ball and is very responsive and easy to train. She forms strong bonds with people and prefers to be close to her person most of the time. She is affectionate and enjoys cuddling, often falling asleep while being held or resting next to you. She walks well on leash and is generally a calm, attentive dog in the home. The one behavioral issue Maisy has is resource guarding with other dogs. Because of this, she needs to live in a single-dog household. When another dog is present around high-value items such as toys or bones, she can become aggressive. Outside of this specific situation, she is a loving and well-behaved dog. She does well with cats. I have two cats at home and she has lived with them without problems. My hope had always been to keep Maisy for the rest of her life. However, I recently had to take in another dog

Story
Looks like: Border Collie mix Male, 9 years old (estimated), 46 pounds Skipper is a good boy who weighs in at a perfectly huggable 46 pounds of pure love. This handsome gentleman has mastered the art of connection. One look into his deep, soulful eyes and you'll feel like you've known him forever. Skipper is the definition of a lover. He's happiest when he's close to his people, leaning in for affection or stretching out beside you for long, cozy couch cuddles. Whether you're watching a movie, reading a book, or just enjoying a quiet evening at home, Skipper will be right there, content just to be by your side. While he may have a little silver around the muzzle, it only adds to his charm. At nine years old, he's past the puppy chaos and fully settled into his sweet, steady personality. He's the kind of dog who understands the value of companionship and gives his whole heart in return. If you're looking for a loyal best friend with gentle eyes, a warm presence, and plenty of love to give, Skipper is ready to claim his spot on your couch and in your heart. Sweet Skipper joined us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services, where he landed after being found as a stray.
