Story
Meg is a sweet 48 pound, 9-year-old Valley Bulldog who loves going on walks, playing at daycare and the dog park, going for car rides, shopping in all kinds of stores and snuggling with you. She is seeking a constant companion because being left alone makes her anxious. Meg is microchipped, crate trained and knows basic commands such as sit, wait, right, left, and go potty. She's a medium-sized girl who loves people and gets along great with most other dogs, but kids and cats are unknowns. Meg is very food-motivated, but the vet says it's important that she stays on a hydrolyzed protein diet (available online & at pet stores) to keep her from getting itchy. Meg may be a senior, but she's healthy and energetic!

Story
Jet’s story hasn’t been an easy one. After being adopted, this sweet boy was sadly dumped by his previous adopters and has since found his way back to us. Despite everything he’s been through, Jet’s gentle spirit still shines through. He may be a little shy at first, but once he warms up, you’ll be greeted with his handsome smile that could light up any room! Jet is very sweet guy who loves affection—he’ll never turn down pets, cuddles, or a nice walk. His favorite cuddle position is upside down in your lap! He’s kennel trained, fully potty trained, and rides wonderfully in the car. Jet is looking for a loving, committed family who will give him the security he deserves and never give up on him again. Could that be you?

Des Moines, IA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
Crash is a Brindle Boxer/Bull Dog. He is very active he likes to be outside running around. Our yard is too small for him. We have little or no time to fully train him however he is very smart. He's always happy. He did have "happy tail" when we got him because he was not cropped. But we didn't want to do that to him. He has never bitten anyone and has never shown aggression towards anybody. Unfortunately we just don't have the time to train him completely and also our house and yard are just way too small for him. He loves to go on walks but not completely done with training on that. He has a lot of humerous chacter, he loves to sit up in the front seat of the car and go for rides. Just mention, go for a ride", and he's right there. People get a kick out of that He is a very affectionate dog, still some puppy in him. I would love to see him go to a loving and caring home he deserves.

Story
I'm gonna make you an wo-offer you can't refuse. That's Pacino's favorite phrase. The adoption deal is simple: a roof over his head, a cold dish of water, daily meals and treats, plus an abundance of love. What? It's a good deal! Pacino, now over a year old, has become a true Dogfather. He is well-behaved, happy-go lucky, is very handsome, and has a wonderful, playful nature; he fits seamlessly into any family. His lineage boasts a long line of Dog-Father's, tough dogs out in the world whose business is their own. But, they are loyal, loving and strong characters to have around you.. He's a potty-trained and crate-trained gentleman, but he still has a penchant for chewing. He adores treats and toys, but can go through them quickly. Proper and slow introductions to other dogs are essential. Pacino would thrive best with older kids. Join the legacy and give Pacino the family he deserves. After all, a dog like him is an offer you can't refuse. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

🐾 Meet Poochie! 🐾 Poochie is a sweet and loving 2-year-old female Boxer mix with a medium-sized build and a heart full of affection. She is one of those dogs who truly loves her people.

Poochie is spayed and up to date on all vaccines and preventions, so she is ready to start her next chapter right away. She would do great in a home that offers patience, love, and continued positive introductions as she builds trust. 💜 Good with people and kids 💜 Good with other animals after slow introductions 💜 Sweet, gentle, and loving Adoption Fees: • $200 Local Adoption (Texas) • $450 Out-of-State Adoption (includes transport) If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who will fit beautifully into a family environment, Poochie may be your perfect match. 🐶💕

Chino aka the doe eyed sweetheart who wears his ears like a hat, is looking for his new family!

He is fully potty trained and has done well on walks, even preferring to carry his toys for the entire duration. Chinos big head and loving personality has made him a staff favorite at the shelter so we can all say confidently that you won't want to miss out on this goof! Fill out an application to meet Chino!

Size

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
His name is Papa Smurf, but he's got more of a Shrek-in-a-cow-costume vibe. Big ears, bigger heart, and possibly no idea you’re calling his name (he might be deaf, or he might just have selective hearing — we'll never know). He's a black-and-white patchwork of cuddles, clumsy zoomies, and all the sloppiest kisses you could possibly imagine! This big man is looking for someone who loves long walks (at his pace), belly rubs on demand, and doesn’t mind a little drool every now and then, he loves to play but he might do best as the only dog in the home. if you’ve got treats and patience stop by the shelter and meet Papa Smurf!
