Story
Meet Arrow! Arrow is wicked smart, happy, and snuggly girl who is always up for an adventure! Arrow is potty and crate trained (she puts herself to bed when she’s ready). She’s very food motivated and loves a chance to earn some treats. While she is higher energy and loves playtime, walks, and car rides, she is also an amazing snuggle buddy. She loved curling up on the couch for some TV or studying. Arrow is highly entertaining and livens up the room with her fun and happy personality. I had the best time getting to foster her during the snow days! Arrow would do amazing in an active household or with people who would love to spend time playing with her. Arrow would make an amazing addition for anyone looking for a laugh and some snuggles!

Story
Sana is a chunky sweetheart with a heart just as big as her smile. She absolutely adores people, if there’s an opportunity for cuddles, she’s already halfway in your lap. This girl was built for comfort, affection, and being someone’s soft, warm shadow. Don’t let her curvy figure fool you, though. Sana still has plenty of pep in her step. When the mood strikes, she’ll break into her signature zoomies, the kind that make her ears flop and her whole body wiggle with happiness. She’s the perfect blend of couch potato and surprise athlete, and honestly, it’s part of her charm. Sana would thrive with someone who loves slow mornings, cozy evenings, and long walks where she can take in the world at her own pace. Give her an open field and she’ll show you that she’s still got moves. She’s the ideal companion for anyone who wants a mellow best friend with just enough spunk to keep life fun.

Story
Pam is a sweet girl that loves everyone. She is kind to every person she sees and loves to give hugs. She’s type of dog that would give you cuddles any day, everyday. Pam will make anyone happy and has love to share with everyone that she sees. From her foster: "Pam is a sweet, smiley, playful dog who LOVES people! She is the definition of a shadow dog, she wants to be wherever you are and see everything you see. While she's not super interested in playing fetch or with toys, she loves walks (and is amazing on a leash) and being loved on by her people. She may not always understand personal space, but she is a good listener, incredibly smart, and eager to please. She is currently learning not to jump up for hugs, counter surf, or get too close to people's faces when she's excited, and is already making a lot of progress! Pam is a young, curious dog who craves both physical and mental stimulation. She loves to sniff, gently investigate, and move things around with her nose as she learns about the world around her. She is also great with children, other dogs, and men (may take a little longer to warm up but still very sweet). She is most happy, and surprisingly at peace around lots of people, getting showered with attention. Pam would love nothing more than a home that welcomes cuddles and kisses, enjoys being active, can be patient while she continues learning, and is ready to provide lots of love. In return, she'll be your loyal companion and biggest fan!"

Story
Savina is named after the Savina pepper—and just like her namesake, she brings a little spice along with a whole lot of personality. This smart, 3-year-old girl has blossomed into a very affectionate companion who loves her people deeply. When she sees her favorites, she greets them with an adorable full-body wiggle and a big, toothy “smile” that’s sure to make you laugh. While she can still be a bit shy when meeting new men, Savina continues to grow more confident every day and is doing well with ongoing socialization. She has done especially well with her foster’s 11-year-old grandson and enjoys being part of a calm, supportive environment where she can build trust at her own pace. Savina is highly food motivated (treats are the way to her heart!) and thrives with structure and routine. She’s great on leash, walking with an easy, relaxed gait, and enjoys exploring the world through her keen nose and attentive ears. She already knows “sit,” “stay,” and “here,” is working on “down” and “heel,” and is fully housebroken with excellent manners in the home. She’s also a total cuddle bug—happy to curl up with you on the couch or rest at your feet—and sleeps soundly through the night. With her growing confidence, affectionate nature, and charming personality, Savina is ready to find a home where she can continue to shine and be a loyal, loving companion.

Story
Mayson, is one of our pretty boys and he certainly knows it. This happy and outgoing dog loves anything and everything to do with the great outdoors. Hiking, swimming, running, or just long walks? He can do it all and will enjoy every second of it. Mayson has spent well over 2 years in a shelter environment with little adopter interest, but we know there is someone out there for him. Mayson is very smart, and even though he has spent a lot of time in the shelter, he has made huge progress on settling down when needed and learning his manners in hopes of improving his chance at a new life out in the world. Mayson needs a home without cats, but he is a huge fan of other dogs and has turned into one of our most socialized pups. He would also do best in a home without young kids. Although he has some limitations on the home that would best fit him, Mayson just needs a chance for someone to really see how wonderful of a dog he truly is. If you are looking for a active, life loving dog that is all about adventures then there is no one better than Mayson.
