Story
Silas is an active boy, kind of goofy. He was born to a litter of 5 in October of 2025 and has been with two of his sisters since then. Dad is a boxer mix and mom is a Jack Russell mix so he is very loyal and loves to play! He is sweet with children, including littles. He loves his chew toys and will chase a ball or frisbee. He is still learning to be on a leash for walks, but doesn't pull, he just likes to wander and explore. He loves to be with his people and although he is crate trained, he can still have accidents if left alone for too long. Silas is super affectionate and cuddly when he calms down. Would be an ideal pup for an active family with children and would love to buddy up with another young dog.

Story
Hi, I'm Woody. My story didn't start out easy. I was found alone on a trail, severely underweight and covered in cuts and abrasions. I was skin and bones, and my face was especially injured — swollen, painful, and infected. But through all of the treatment and healing, I showed everyone what kind of dog I really am. I was the absolute best patient, and now that I've recovered, my personality has truly started to shine. I'm a handsome brindle-and-white Boxer mix who is quiet, gentle, calm, and incredibly laid-back. I love being petted, walk beautifully on a leash, and am perfectly content simply being beside someone who treats me kindly. I don't need to be the center of attention or keep you busy all day. I'm just a really good dog who enjoys the simple things — a nice walk, a gentle hand, and a person to call my own. Whatever happened before I found my way here is part of my past. I'm ready to leave it behind and spend the rest of my life surrounded by the love and kindness I deserve. If you're looking for a gentle, easygoing companion who will appreciate every bit of love you give him, come meet me. I'm ready for my forever home. Interested in adopting? Please review all adoption requirements listed on our "Adopt" page, including requirements regarding spay/neuter of current pets, regular veterinary care, and home/landlord checks.

Story
This is our new friend, Smokey!Smokey is a boxer mix and, let me tell you folks, he loves to be around people. So long as there aren`t any milkbones, his attention is on his person nearby.He would love a home with someone to hold him through thunderstorms (they`re scary). Smokey is used to living with an older gentleman but is open to loving a person of ANY age.Smokey loves toys, treats, and other dogs!He gets quite excited around cats, so we advise caution if you were to take him into a home with one. Smokey would probably take some work to get used to a feline friend.Consider coming out to meet Smokey!!

Story
- Busy pup who loves to connect with people through play and other activities; will likely enjoy physical activity and mental challenges to keep their bodies and brains busy- Prefers to explore and do their own thing here in the shelter, but will likely open up more once they're in a home environment and have had time to decompress - Enjoys spending time with dogs who have a similar play style - Young, noisy or busy children can be too much for them (mature home recommended) - Tends to be socially awkward with other dogs; may like a dog friend or may prefer to be the only dog in his new home (dog intro required)The ARL's shelter software requires that we choose a primary breed for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most dogs we are only guessing at primary breed. We get to know each dog as an individual and do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not breed label. Primary Color: Brindle Weight: 60.5 Age: 6yrs 1mths 0wks
