Health and behavior history:  Up to date on vaccines, dewormed, microchipped and will be spayed prior to adoption. Clean bill of health from the PIPs Vet! Meet Hope, a sweet and affectionate girl who’s finally getting the chance to just be a dog. After caring for puppies, she’s now discovering the simple joys she may never have experienced before, her own toys, daily walks, and lazy afternoons soaking up the sun on the patio. She’s happiest when she’s close to her people, leaning in for cuddles or quietly resting by your side. Hope enjoys getting outside and exploring, but she’s just as content lounging and watching the world go by. One thing to note, Hope is not a fan of cats, so she’s looking for a feline-free home. After giving so much love and care to her puppies, Hope is ready for a home that will shower her with the affection and comfort she’s always deserved. If you’re looking for a gentle, loyal companion who will fill your home with warmth, Hope is ready to meet you.  ##2455377##

Story
Meet Selena! This super sweet, energetic, and loving girl is ready for her forever home! She is an absolute goofball and is welcoming to any and everyone. It's hard not to fall in love with her. Selena is fully potty trained and has had no accidents despite recently living in a boarding facility. Selena is a high energy dog who loves to run around and burn off lots of energy! Her favorite thing to do is go on a long walk at the end of the day. Selena would thrive with an owner who can dedicate a couple of hours a day of exercising her. Selena would best fit in a home with no cats or small animals given her history of liking to chase small animals. Selena is quite the escape artist and can break out of a normal wire crate. She is also super snuggly and loves getting lots of attention. She does have a heart murmur that has been assessed by a cardiologist - she has no symptoms, so she is currently on a twice a day pill that she takes in a treat! If you're looking for a sweet, cuddly, and energetic pup, Selena might be the perfect match for you!Adoption fee of $150 includes spay, microchip, vaccines, deworming, heartworm testing, and heartworm/flea/tick preventionApply here: https://2pawsup.org/applications/adoption-application/August 21, 2025, 1:33 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please be sure to click on Cassi's photo to learn all about her, and the home we are seeking for her placement.Cassi is a very sweet and sensitive girl who is looking for a laid back family to call her own.  She would love another dog in her forever home that is confident and well behaved, to help show her that new things aren't scary.  She does have some anxiety, and is currently taking medications that are making a huge difference for her.  She would do best living in a home with experienced dog owners who are patient with her, and willing to provide a consistent environment for her to thrive.  She would do well with kitties, but they should a dog savvy cat would be best.  Cassi can be vocal, so she would not do well in high density housing.   Cassi needs humans who are not gone for long hours.  All humans in her forever home must be 12 years of age, or older.  She requires a fenced in yard (physical fencing no invisible fences please).  She is up to date on preventative medications, vaccines and has been spayed and micro chipped too. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 3, 2024, 10:18 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please click on Buddy's photo to read his bio prior to applying. Buddy is a really sweet, goofy guy. He loves to run around his big yard and play with his canine sister and brothers, he enjoys going for walks and loves to snuggle with his humans. He has come a long way so far, but still has some training to do. He can be quite the bouncy little boy when there is food to be had, and is still learning to take treats gently.  His forever family will need to ensure he continues to work on his impulse control. Buddy would do best with another playful canine in the home to run and wrestle with. Preferably a female, as he tends to get overly excited when he plays with the larger, male dog in his foster home. He is able to adapt his play style based on each individual dog, but when he gets overly excited he needs a break in his crate.  He has met kitties too, but would do best with dog savvy cats that will set limits.   Buddy requires a forever home with experienced dog owners who can be patient and continue with his training. Children should be over 10 years of age and a fenced yard (not electric) is a must.
