Story
FOREVER HOME NEEDED!!  Kubo came to us in 2020, and was adopted relatively quickly! Unfortunately, his owners could not handle Kubo and it led to them needing to return him. He was terrified upon being back at the kennel, a completely different dog than what had came to us originally. We found Kubo a wonderful foster home where he has been for 2 years! He never receives ANY interest . We are now desperate. Kubo's foster is returning to work and will not have enough time to care for him. This poor boy needs his FOREVER home ASAP!!! Kubo is a very smart 5 year old cuddle bug. He LOVES to cuddle on his person and be around them. He has been undergoing training and has come such a long way. Kubo is good with other dogs but can be very vocal when seeing them outside which is part of what his training has consisted of. He would do amazing in a lower traffic home with adults/older teens. If you are interested in Kubo, visit EHRDOGS.ORG and fill out an application for KUBO (function () { // Only on animal detail pages if (!/\/animals\/detail/i.test(location.pathname)) return; // Debounce to avoid double-fire (touchend + click, etc.) var lastNavAt = 0; function toFullSize(url) { try { var u = new URL(url, location.href); u.searchParams.delete('width'); u.searchParams.delete('height'); return u.toString(); } catch (e) { return url || ''; } } function looksLikeAnimalPhoto(url) { return /\/pictures\/animals\/\d+\/\d+\/[^?#]+\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif)/i.test(url || ''); } function handler(e) { var el = e.target; if (!el) return; // Find the closest anchor or image in the click path var a = el.closest ? el.closest('a') : null; var img = el.closest ? el.closest('img') : null; var url = ''; // Prefer anchor href if it points to an animal photo if (a && a.getAttribute) { var href = a.getAttribute('href') || ''; if (href && (href.indexOf('/pictures/animals/') !== -1 || looksLikeAnimalPhoto(href))) { url = href; } } // Otherwise fall back to the image src if (!url && img && img.getAttribute) { var src = img.getAttribute('src') || ''; if (src && (src.indexOf('/pictures/animals/') !== -1 || looksLikeAnimalPhoto(src))) { url = src; } } if (!url) return; // Absolute URL + full-size version try { url = new URL(url, location.href).toString(); } catch (_) {} url = toFullSize(url); // Stop PrettyPhoto (and any other delegated click handlers) e.preventDefault(); e.stopPropagation(); if (e.stopImmediatePropagation) e.stopImmediatePropagation(); // Debounce var now = Date.now(); if (now - lastNavAt < 500) return; lastNavAt = now; // SAME TAB navigation to the full-size image location.href = url; } // Capture phase is the key: we get the event before PrettyPhoto.

Story
This sweet and spirited girl is Sombra. She weighs around 40 pounds and is approximately 1 year old. Poor Sombra was found at a rural country church with a short rope around her neck and the other end tied to a railing. A kind person saw her and took her to the local animal control. Now she is with Eleventh Hour Rescue waiting to find a REAL home with people who will love her. Sombra LOVES to play and does great with other dogs. She is currently being fostered at Pack Mentality LLC and enjoys running around with the other dogs. She is at her best when she can spend her days being active. Sombra is treat motivated which helps with training, she walks well on a leash but needs to work on her manners when other dogs pass by. She would very much prefer to be off leash when she’s meeting new friends. Sombra is housebroken and her foster said she is super sweet, and will make a great companion! If you'd like to meet Sombra, please fill out an adoption application at www.ehrdogs.org and be sure to mention her name - SOMBRA SCAS!

Introducing Cedar, a charming 7-year-old and 68 lb boy! This guy is a bundle of joy, adored by everyone he meets. Whether he's playing with people or other dogs, Cedar's loving nature shines through. He's always up for an adventure, whether it's exploring the great outdoors or snuggling up for some quality time. He rides well in the car and LOVES to play in the kiddie pool. Sadly, Cedar is in need of a new home when his owner developed allergies. Whoever adopts him will be gaining a very loyal and affectionate friend for life. He is house trained, crate trained, and all around a fun dog.

Story
If you’re looking for a dog who checks every single box, Piston is your guy. At 2.5 years old and 45 lbs, he’s the perfect “just right” size — big enough for adventures, small enough for couch snuggles. Piston LOVES people of all ages and gets along beautifully with other dogs. He’s even been polite with cats! Outside, he shines as a running buddy or park explorer, so an active adult or a yard to zoom in would make him one happy pup. Inside? He’s pure chill — relaxed, respectful, and happy to nap while you go about your day. This clever boy is:  Housetrained  Crate-trained  Obedience-trained (sit, lay, and paw — nailed it!)  Neutered, vaccinated, & heartworm negative  A full-night sleeper and potty-signal pro Piston’s previous owner became ill and could no longer care for him, so he’s looking for a new family to love with that big, loyal heart of his. He’s easy, he’s sweet, he’s ready — all he needs is someone to give him his forever home.

Story
Blue is a 2-year-old, 50 lb resilient, happy-go-lucky Shepherd/Cattle dog with an incredible spirit. He lost one of his legs in Texas, but don’t let that fool you—it doesn’t slow him down or stop him from enjoying life one bit. Blue is proof that three legs are more than enough. This joyful boy gets along great with other dogs, and absolutely loves to play. He’s affectionate, fun, and full of personality, always ready to make friends and show off how amazing he truly is. Blue would be happiest in a quieter home environment without young children or heavy foot traffic. Although he enjoys a peaceful lifestyle, he has plenty of energy and is always eager to play and explore! Blue is likely a mix of 2 working breed dogs so he enjoys being kept busy. Blue is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. His adoption fee is SPONSORED by a lovely family who had him for a short time! He’s ready for a forever home that will see him for the incredible dog he is.
