Story
Jazzy is the kind of dog who brings energy and happiness into your life—without overwhelming it. She’s playful, friendly, and fun, but also has an independent side that makes her easy to live with. Her past isn’t pretty—but you’d never know it. Jazzy is social and confident, great with dogs of all sizes and cats, and naturally fits into whatever environment she’s in. She’ll happily join in on playtime, go on walks, or even randomly take a dip in the pond—then settle down like it’s no big deal. She’s affectionate without being clingy and has that ideal balance people are always looking for but rarely find. Good fit: someone who wants a fun, social dog that adds energy and joy to daily life without being overwhelming or demanding. Adoption process: All adoptions are completed prior to transport. Dogs are picked up at designated transport locations. If an adoption doesn’t work out (rare, but life happens), we always take our dogs back.

Story
Alder is basically the dog version of an introvert. Quiet, gentle, low-key, and completely content doing his own thing, Alder is one of the easiest and lowest-maintenance dogs I have ever had in the rescue out of hundreds of dogs. He is around a year old and was originally labeled as a pit bull mix at the shelter when he was younger and still looked like a generic puppy. But now that he is older, it is very obvious that he is not a pittie and instead looks much more like a Border Collie mix. Alder is wonderful with other dogs of all sizes and also great with cats. He peacefully coexists with everyone but honestly doesn’t care much about joining the chaos or playing constantly. He prefers to quietly exist nearby and observe the world at his own pace. He is shy and hesitant with new people at first, but there is not an ounce of aggression in him. He is simply a soft, sensitive dog who takes a little time to feel comfortable. Once he settles in, Alder is incredibly easy to live with. He is not demanding, not hyper, not loud, and not needy. He is the type of dog who quietly becomes part of your daily life without bringing chaos into it. Good fit: someone looking for a calm, quiet, low-maintenance companion who does not need constant stimulation or activity to be happy. Adoption process: All adoptions are completed prior to transport. Dogs are picked up at designated transport locations. If an adoption doesn’t work out (rare, but life happens), we always take our dogs back. Location: Oklahoma (available to approved out-of-state adopters via transport) Health: Fully vetted (neutered/spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested) Adoption fee: $450 (includes transport + vetting) Bonus: Each adoption includes a 30-minute phone consultation with a professional trainer Transport routes: WA, OR, ID, MT, UT, WY, CO, MN, WI, IA, IL, IN, OH, PA, MD, NY, NJ, VT Think you might be a good fit?

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Some young dogs are nonstop chaos. Landon is not one of them. Landon is an approximately 8 month old mixed breed boy around 40 pounds with a calm, easygoing personality that makes him incredibly easy to enjoy. He loves going on walks, exploring, and splashing around in the pond, but he is not one of those dogs that constantly needs stimulation every second of the day. Most of the time, Landon is perfectly content lounging around nearby, soaking up the day, and flashing his signature smile at everyone around him. He is great with dogs and cats and has a naturally relaxed, social personality. He enjoys playing and adventuring with other dogs but is not overly pushy or hyper. He also is not much of a barker, which is always a nice bonus. Landon has a really nice balance to his personality. He is young enough to happily join you on hikes, walks, trips to the lake, or outdoor adventures, but mellow enough to settle down and relax once the fun is over. If you are looking for a happy, adaptable dog that is up for whatever life brings without turning your home upside down, Landon would be a wonderful fit. Good fit: someone looking for a relaxed young dog that enjoys adventures but also knows how to chill. Adoption process: All adoptions are completed prior to transport. Dogs are picked up at designated transport locations. If an adoption doesn’t work out (rare, but life happens), we always take our dogs back. Location: Oklahoma (available to approved out-of-state adopters via transport) Health: Fully vetted (spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested) Adoption fee: $500 (includes transport + vetting) Transport routes: WA, OR, ID, MT, UT, WY, CO, MN, WI, IA, IL, IN, OH, PA, MD, NY, NJ, VT Think you might be a good fit?

Meet Jasper! 🐾 Jasper is a young, energetic, and incredibly smart pup who is ready to find a family to call his own!

Story
John Connor has been waiting for his family since the summer of 2024, when he and his mom were dumped in the country. He's going on 3 years old now, and I genuinely don't understand how this perfect little dude is still here. John Connor is only about 40 lbs, with an adorable face and the cutest little stubby tail. He is great with other dogs, cats, and people and has a happy, playful personality. He loves to run, play, and splish splash in the water. He would make a fantastic companion for someone who enjoys getting outside, going on adventures, or spending lots of time playing in the backyard. After almost two years of waiting, it's beyond time for John Connor to get to do all of those things with a family of his own. Good fit: an active individual or family looking for a fun, friendly, medium-sized companion who loves people, other animals, outdoor adventures, and playing in the water. Adoption process: All adoptions are completed prior to transport. Dogs are picked up at designated transport locations. If an adoption doesn’t work out (rare, but life happens), I always take my dogs back. Location: Oklahoma (available to approved out-of-state adopters via transport) Health: Fully vetted (neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested) Adoption fee: $485 (includes transport + vetting) Bonus: Each adoption includes a 30-minute phone consultation with a professional trainer Transport routes: WA, OR, ID, MT, UT, WY, CO, MN, WI, IA, IL, IN, OH, PA, MD, NY, NJ Think you might be a good fit?
