Story
Meet Spot! 🐾 Spot is a 4-year-old sweetheart who’s just looking for a cozy home and a soft spot to snore the day away (yes, he snores—and it’s adorable). 💤💙 This handsome guy is great with female dogs, cat-friendly, and even does well around chickens—what a gentleman! He’s house and crate trained, loves kids, and is happiest when he’s getting belly rubs or snuggling up in bed with you. He’s a calm, loyal companion but is a bit scared of thunderstorms, so he’ll need someone who can be his safe place when the weather gets rough. If you’re looking for a loving, well-mannered buddy to share your heart and your couch, Spot is your guy! 📍Apply today to meet this snuggly star! https://docs.google.com/.../1FAIpQLSfOA6TyZx8.../viewform...

Story
Look at this sweet Terrier mix. Meet Hank! This boy had had a ruff life and needs a soft place to call home! He is around 4 years old, kennel trained, learning to walk on a leash, but needs a home without small children. Hank needs time to decompress and feel safe! He likes to be an alpha male so dog testing would need to be done with him prior to adoption. He hasn't been tested with cats yet and tends to be a bit nippy! This guy will just take time with lots of love and patience.
