Story
Meet Max! a 10-month-old Border Collie mix with a sweet soul and a playful heart. At the shelter he can be a little shy at first, but once he gets to know you, his friendly and loving personality really shines. With people he trusts, Max is affectionate, eager to please, and happy to be by your side. This smart young guy is house trained and does well being kenneled when left alone. He already knows sit, come, and shake, and with his Border Collie brains, he’s excited to keep learning more. Max loves his toys—especially balls, squeaky toys, and anything he can tug—and he’s a big fan of fetch and tug-of-war. While new people may make him a bit nervous at first, Max truly thrives around other dogs and enjoys their company. He would do great in a home that understands he just needs a little patience to feel comfortable, and once he does, you’ll have a loyal, playful companion for life. Max is ready to find his person (or people) and grow into the amazing dog he’s meant to be.

Story
Meet Buttercup — a smart, sweet, and sensitive girl ready for her perfect home!Buttercup is a 1.5-year-old Border Collie/Cattle Dog mix weighing just 27 lbs, and she’s the perfect combination of sweetness, intelligence, and playful energy. She may start out very shy when meeting new people or entering new environments, but once she feels safe, her loving personality shines. When Buttercup trusts you, she really loves you.This girl is still young and full of puppy energy. She has high exercise needs and thrives on daily walks, play sessions, training, and mental challenges. Her favorite thing in the world is playing with other playful dogs, and she’d be thrilled to have a canine buddy in her new home. She is still learning to read cues from dogs who aren’t interested in playing right away, so continued socialization will help her understand those boundaries as she matures.Buttercup is crate trained, house trained, and learning her leash manners—she doesn’t pull, but she’s still working on confidence while out and about. She’s incredibly smart and eager to please, making training both fun and rewarding. She’s very treat-motivated and loves having a “job” to do. She will need continued training to help with manners (she’s been known to hop onto tables or counters if food is present!), but she learns quickly with guidance.She’s good with other dogs, great with patient kids who allow her time to warm up, and while her experience with cats is unknown, her instinct will likely be to play or chase. Buttercup’s perfect family will be active, committed to ongoing training, and excited to provide her with enrichment and structure. Another dog would be a bonus, but the most important thing is a family who will nurture her confidence and give her the stimulation she needs to thrive.Her adorable looks, her gentle sweetness, and the way she blossoms once she trusts you will have you saying 'as you wish.' If you’re looking for a sweet, bright, eager young dog who will adore you endlessly, Buttercup may be your true love.Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal. Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. All CAWS animals are fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated. Her adoption fee is $200.

Story
Pet’s Story: His owner in Utah recently passed away, and he lost the person he loved most. He is only 4 years old and one of the smartest dogs I have ever met. He is very well trained, highly intelligent, and loves training, mental games, outdoor walks, and attention. He is deeply attached to people, wonderful with children, good with cats, and has lived indoors in a loving home. Outside, he can be cautious with other dogs but may adapt with time and proper introductions. He is sensitive, not aggressive. This is urgent, as without a new home soon, he may be taken to a shelter. He is looking for a loving family to call home again. He has had two owners in his life and becomes very sad and emotionally affected when he has no stable home. He bonds deeply with his people and truly needs to belong to a family.
