Story
Just like her name, Honey is as sweet as can be! At 2.5 years old, this gentle girl has been blossoming in her foster home, gaining confidence and learning to enjoy the world around her. Though she can be shy with new people, once she trusts you, she’s a loving and loyal companion.Honey absolutely thrives around other dogs—they help bring out her playful, happy self! Whether it’s romping around the park or lounging on the couch, she takes her cues from her furry friends, making her an ideal addition to a home with another dog.She’s potty trained, crate trained, and has the perfect mix of energy—she’ll be playful when the moment is right but is just as happy to snuggle up for a lazy day. She loves treats, soaking up the sun, and playing with toys (especially the fluffy ones she can “redecorate”).Honey is looking for a patient and loving home where she can continue to gain confidence at her own pace. If you have a dog who needs a best friend, or if you’re willing to earn her trust and give her the love she deserves, Honey just might be the perfect fit!

Story
Meet Meathead! Don't let the name fool you, this 2 year old goofy guy is all heart, brown eyes, (and maybe a little bit of zoomies). Meathead's hobbies include sprinting around the backyard like a rocket, perfecting the art of the goofy grin, and accepting belly rubs like he's being knighted. He's a champion couch potato, a dedicated foot-warmer (especially during board game nights!), and a treat connoisseur of the highest order (do you like asmr videos? Because he loves crunchy treats and his little crunch noises are adorable). Looking for a silly, sweet, and playful companion who will make you laugh every day? Meathead's your pup! (He also comes pre-programmed with an endless supply of sloppy kisses.) Is a little scared of cats but will warm up over time, good with male and female dogs that don't try to "dominate" him.Apply to adopt this lovable meatball today!

Story
Makita is a sweet 8 year old husky. I have had her since she was a pup, but unfortunately she does not like small children. With a 2 year old one twin baby boys, I can no longer keep her. She would do best in a single dog home. Huskies have a lot of energy, and she enjoys a back yard where she can run around.

Story
Badger is a sweet boy in need of a home without children and preferably without other dogs. He is reactive but can manage it well. He has had a lot of training with an e collar and is very good on it. He is on fluoxetine to manage anxiety. He doesn't like being cornered or stood over, but otherwise is a sweet dog. He came from a shelter and has made a ton of progress since I got him almost four years ago. He needs someone who can walk him or has a back yard for him, but otherwise he usually prefers to do his own thing.

Story
Mace is a little over 1 years old, I adopted him last February but due to some recent changes in life I can not afford to keep him. He is very loving and will take all the attention he can get. He can be a bit stubborn, but nothing too bad. My biggest struggle has been getting him to walk on a leash. If he does not want to do it he will just sit on the ground and force all of his weight down. I would love for him to have another dog to play with and a yard since that is what he is used to. Him going to a loving home though is my biggest concern. He is very easily excited and not aggressive. Does not bark much if at all. If around other dog, he will bark if they bark. He is a chewer so you have to be careful what you leave around him. He loves doing tricks, he understands: sit, lay down, paw, and other paw. All in all he’s super loving and just purely wants everyone’s attention on him. There is no fee for him, I just want him to go to a loving home.
