Story
Pickles is a lovable 5-year-old neutered mixed-breed who has been with me since he was found as a stray puppy in March 2020. He grew up on a large farm with plenty of space, but I recently moved to an apartment. He has been staying with my sister in her small backyard, and he needs more room and attention than we can give. He has started getting out of the fence and tearing things up from boredom. Pickles is sweet, people-oriented, great with kids, and gentle with other animals. He is a sensitive, slightly shy dog who gets excited easily but has a very soft, affectionate temperament. He thrives with calm voices, patience, and a predictable routine. Pickles does best with a fenced yard because he’s nervous on a leash and still building confidence. He is healthy, neutered, and looking for a home that can give him the space, reassurance, and love he deserves.

Story
Cocoa was rescued about 4 years ago. She is quite dominate and slightly food aggressive with other dogs. She is full of energy and very easily stimulated. She loves to run and wants to chase every bird, squirrel, or bee that she sees. She can be quite affectionate, and likes to sneak in the bed at night once I’m asleep. My ex-wife left her here about a year ago, and I just don’t have the time to give her the attention and stimulation she needs. The other dog in the last photo is Brownie, I have a profile for her as well.

Brownie was found with her sister a little over 2 years ago. Her sister did not survive unfortunately. She is very wary and slightly aggressive towards strangers, but one treat is enough to change her attitude. She is very loving and gentle. She is very energetic and almost always jumping with joy when I get home. My ex-wife left her here a little over a year ago, and I don’t have the time to give her the attention and affection she needs. The other dog in the last photo is Cocoa, I have a profile for her as well.

Story
Joshua is probably the best dog I have ever been around. He is a stray that was dropped off and I have taken care of him for over 2 years. He has all his shots, etc. Joshua loves people more than anything else. He wants a family. Because of my age, health and moving to be closer to adult children and grandchildren, Joshua needs a permanent home. Joshua wants to have a family that he will love and they will love him too. Joshua is a shepherd and he loves to show his love for all humans. Please consider adopting Joshua. He is about 3 years old.

Story
Last summer, Honey arrived as a tiny, vulnerable baby, seeking nourishment, love, and a safe haven. Since then, she has received all necessary vaccinations and has been spayed. Her enthusiasm for playtime, treats, and attention is utterly inspiring! Although our household is already full with five adorable Frenchies, it is clear that Honey needs a forever home where she can thrive, run freely, and receive the devotion she so rightly deserves. We couldnt bear the thought of abandoning her to a shelter, so we have continued to care for her, hoping to find a loving family that will cherish her. Honey is not only housebroken and kennel trained but also a connoisseur of watermelon, cantaloupe, cucumbers, and popcorn! She is, without a doubt, the sweetest girl, and we are confident that she will bring boundless joy to her future forever home. If only we had more space, we would undoubtedly make her a permanent member of our family!
