Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hello, my name is Bo, but you can call me Mr. Wonderful or something else but don't call me late for dinner. Are you ready to meet me? I'm a wonderful dog that likes going outside and for walks. I need a fenced in yard because I like to chase things like the bunny that is usually in my neighbor's yard.  I don't think I would like living with rambunctious kids, but adults with a quiet home would suit me well. If you want to sit back and watch TV, I'm right there sitting next to you. I like treats and I’ve loved going to doggie daycare to make new friends. I’ve also worked with the trainer to learn some new skills, I’m happy to do anything for a treat! Bo's adoption fee is $250 and includes his neuter, microchip, current vaccinations and preventatives.  If you would like to meet Bo, please submit an adoption application through our website Adopthope.org.  Last Hope requires that adopters have a history of having kept animals as indoor pets only, altered and kept current on vaccinations and preventatives. Our adoption process includes a vet history check and a home visit.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 11, 2025, 7:15 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Rooster is not currently available for adoption at our shelter - instead we are helping his owner by listing him as a Courtesy Listing, hoping that we can help them someone that will welcome Rooster into their home! Rooster was originally adopted from Safe Haven over two years ago but he did not thrive in the shelter environment so we are hoping to find him another home that he can settle into instead of being returned to the shelter setting. Please read through his profile information below and contact his owner directly if you're looking for more information or potentially interested in meeting him.      His owner's contact info is down below for anyone potentially interested....   “Rooster is a sweet and loving chihuahua who came from a breeding situation in a puppy mill before being adopted into a family. Despite his difficult start, he has a gentle heart and so much love to give. Rooster does wonderfully with children and is patient even with little hands tugging on his fur. He’s also good with cats, and currently lives with one peacefully. He can be nervous around most adult men, so a calm, understanding environment will help him feel safe. He thrives on structure and routine, especially when it comes to his bathroom schedule. Stressful situations can sometimes lead to accidents, but with consistency and patience he does very well. Rooster’s ideal home would be one that offers stability, love, and the chance to relax. Once he feels secure, his affectionate and loyal nature really shines through. He is a special little dog who deserves a forever home where he can finally feel at peace.   Owners info: Mary Cox silvaluna87@yahoo.com Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 24, 2025, 10:01 pm
