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. She may be missing a leg, but being a tripod certainly doesn’t slow her down one bit! She gets around great, loves life, and is always ready for fun and adventures with her people. She can be a little timid at first, but she warms up quickly and becomes incredibly affectionate once she feels comfortable. 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. She’s crate trained, housebroken, spayed, and up to date on vaccinations. Frisky is ready to find a forever family who will love her just the way she is

She absolutely adores everyone she meets and has such a happy, easygoing personality that makes her a joy to be around.

She walks beautifully on a leash and is doing great with house training, too! Abra is affectionate, goofy, and has the kind of personality that makes people fall in love with her instantly.

Story
Meet Frankie! 🐾 Frankie is a 3-year-old Hound/Lab mix and an 80-pound bundle of love who has absolutely no idea he’s too big to be a lap dog. 😂❤️ He’s an incredibly sweet, affectionate boy with a wonderfully chill personality. Frankie loves following his people from room to room, curling up as close as possible, soaking up belly rubs, and getting all the snuggles he can. He enjoys going for walks and loves playing with his canine friends, but he’s just as happy lounging around with his favorite people. Frankie does great with kids and other dogs and would make such a wonderful family companion. He would do best in a feline-free home, as his instincts may make cats a little too tempting to chase. Frankie is neutered, fully vaccinated, and ready to find a forever family with plenty of room on the couch—or, more importantly, their laps—for all 80 pounds of him. ❤️🐾

Story
Meet Shrew! 🐾 She may be small, but this little Malinois/Shepherd mix is one smart girl! At only four months 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! ❤️
