Story
Introducing Sophie! 🐾💕 Sophie is a one-year-old Heeler who is equal parts sweet, silly, and ready for an adventure! She can be a little shy when she first meets you, but give her a minute to decide you’re cool and her funny, affectionate personality comes right out. ❤️ Sophie is a well-behaved girl who is both crate trained AND housebroken. 🙌 She has a nice medium energy level and would love a family who enjoys getting outside. A good run or hike each day will make her one happy girl, but she’s not picky about how she gets her wiggles out! A few good romps around the yard with a dog friend or a serious game of fetch will do the trick too. 🎾 Once the fun is over, Sophie is perfectly happy settling in and enjoying the rest of the day with her people. She does great with kids, cats, and other dogs, so she’s ready to fit right into just about any crew. Sophie is spayed, fully vaccinated, and officially accepting applications for her adventure buddy, ball thrower, and forever family. 🥹❤️

Story
Introducing Nash! 🐾❤️ Nash is a 14-week-old Corgi/Shepherd mix with approximately 90% ears and 10% puppy. 😂 We’re pretty sure he can hear a treat bag open from three counties away. This adorable little guy is sweet, funny, playful, and just a tiny bit shy when he first meets you. Give him a minute, though, and he warms right up and is ready to be your best friend! He loves toys, romping around with other dogs, and having some good old-fashioned puppy fun. And once playtime is over, he’s more than happy to settle in for some snuggles. 🥹 Nash is medium energy, does great with kids, cats, and other dogs, and he’s already doing really well with both crate and house training. He’s the perfect combination of playful, cuddly, and ridiculously cute. He’s neutered, UTD on vaccinations, and ready to find his forever home! 🏡🐾

Meet Frisky! 🐾 Frisky is a 2-year-old lab/shepherd mix with the sweetest personality and the perfect mix of playful energy and loving companionship.

Frisky does wonderful with kids and other dogs, loves car rides, and would happily be your sidekick for everyday outings or cozy nights at home.

Story
Meet Shrew! 🐾 She may be small, but this little Malinois/ Shepherd mix is one smart girl! At only 12 weeks old, Shrew is already learning commands and working hard on house training - and she seems to pick things up twice as fast as the average puppy!Shrew doesn't have the intense energy you might expect from a full Malinois, but she definitely has plenty of typical puppy playfulness. She would love having another playful, active pup or dog in the home to be her buddy!She can be a little shy when first meeting new people or dogs, simply because she hasn't had much exposure yet, but she warms up quickly. Once she knows you, she is incredibly friendly, social, affectionate, and loves being part of whatever is going on.Shrew is great with kids, does well with cats, and absolutely loves a good snuggle when playtime is over. She also travels well and would be happiest with an active, on-the-go family that wants a dog they can take along on adventures.Shrew is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to find her forever family! ❤️
