Missy is a playful, affectionate, fun-loving girl with a huge heart and an adventurous spirit. She loves BeltLine walks, hiking adventures, car rides, sunbathing, playtime, and then curling up on the couch to snuggle with her humans afterward. <br/><br/>She gets along wonderfully with cats, and dogs of all sizes, and truly thrives when she has companionship, structure, routine, and plenty of enrichment and activity to keep her happy and engaged.<br/><br/>Missy Jo is an incredibly loving, smart, and special girl looking for a family ready to give her the consistency, adventure, and affection she deserves.

Story
Rupert is one handsome little fellow with a gentle heart and so much potential. While he may be a bit unsure in new situations, its easy to see the sweet dog waiting to blossom with the right person by his side.<br/><br/>Once Rupert feels comfortable, he enjoys gentle pets, cozy snuggles, and quiet companionship. He seems to be a bit under-socialized and is still learning that the world isnt such a scary place, but every day brings new opportunities for him to build confidence and trust.<br/><br/>Rupert would thrive in a patient, loving home that will give him the time and encouragement he needs to come out of his shell. The family who gives him that chance will be rewarded with the joy of watching him grow into the confident, happy dog hes meant to be.<br/><br/>If you have a kind heart, a calm environment, and the patience to let a shy dog shine, Rupert may be the perfect match for you.

Story
Meet Graham - a shy-at-first guy whose warmth shows once he gets comfortable with you. He came to us as an owner surrender after his previous owner lost their housing, through no fault of his own, and hes ready for a fresh start.<br/><br/>Graham is friendly with people once he warms up, gets along well with other dogs, and was a hit at the dog park. Hes potty trained, settles calmly when left alone for a few hours, and does well around kids too.<br/><br/>Hes an easy walker who enjoys taking in his surroundings at a relaxed pace, and treats are always a welcome bonus along the way. Give him a little time and patience, and Graham will reward you with real, quiet affection.

Story
Harry is a fantastic dog with the people he knows and trusts. He’s incredibly loyal and protective of his home and of me—especially when strangers come near the gate while I’m standing there. However, if we linger and chat for a bit, he usually warms up and will even jump up on the gate looking for some pets. That said, Harry definitely needs someone with experience to continue working on his socialization. He doesn’t always remember people from one day to the next—so even if he meets someone on a Tuesday, he may need a fresh introduction on Wednesday. Every visit is like starting from scratch. To be totally honest, it’s tough, because he really is such a great dog. He’s amazing with everyone at the kennel, loves to cuddle with other dogs (and with me), and he’s housebroken, crate trained, and listens well. He even spent a couple of weeks with a cat and didn’t show any interest—just ignored it.
