Story
Eris is the absolute best dog i’ve ever had. She is loyal as can be and wants nothing more than to be with me. Unfortunately she recently got into it with my Aussie that wouldn’t stop harassing her and i can’t risk them going at it around my daughter. She has never been aggressive to a person, loves being around the kid, and is just the sweetest dog in the world. She is three and a half, doesn’t make messes the house, listens off leash, and is up to date on shots. i need her to have a good life. i think she would do best in a one on one situation with someone that is looking for a best friend. With a little bit of patience for her to warm up to you, i can’t imagine a better dog.

Story
Lloyd is in a foster home! Please contact to the shelter if you are interested in meeting him so we can coordinate with his foster family (:Seriously… just look at this guy! Lloyd isn’t a breed we see often at the shelter, so we’ll admit we were a little extra excited when he strutted in with all those wrinkles! Lloyd is friendly, with a sweet personality. He has done great withy meeting new people and typically acts as though he`s known you his whole life. He came to us with his buddy Reese, and the two previously lived together—they truly get along wonderfully. Here in the shelter, Lloyd has been calm and non-reactive toward other dogs, so he may enjoy having a canine companion in his new home as well. As always, we’re happy to provide a meet-and-greet to help everyone get acquainted. Lloyd has done great with other dogs in his foster home. He enjoys wrestling, playing chase and just having some company. Lloyd can be a rough player at times so a tolerable friend who matches his energy will be best! He has also met kitties in his foster home and has remained respectful of their space. Of course, we still encourage slow introductions! One of Lloyd’s absolute favorite things in the world? Butt scratches. Give him a good scratch and you’ll be rewarded with the cutest wiggles you’ve ever seen. He absolutely melts for attention and loves being close to his people. Lloyd appears to be potty trained, walks nicely on a leash, and already knows “sit.” We’re confident he’d pick up more tricks easily—he’s attentive and eager to please. He enjoys quality time, simple joys, and a balance of playfulness without being overwhelming. Lloyd is just a sweet, lovable boy looking for a family who appreciates his gentle heart, charming wiggles, and desire to be someone’s special companion. If you think Lloyd might be your perfect match, we’d love for you to meet him!

Story
True to her name, Baby is a total cuddle bug who loves being right in the middle of whatever you’re doing. She adores affection, praise, and being pampered, and she’s happiest when she’s spending time with her people. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who wants to be your shadow, Baby is your girl. Baby is both potty trained and crate trained. While she may cry a little when left alone, she has not been destructive, and having plenty of toys and enrichment helps her stay content. She walks nicely on a leash and is quite the smart cookie, knowing cues such as “sit,” “down,” “treat,” “come,” “leave it,” and “okay.” This sweet girl definitely has a princess personality and prefers to be the center of your world. Baby has had positive interactions with other dogs; however, her previous owner noted that she may not always get along with female dogs, as she can have a more dominant side. She should also not be placed in a home with small animals, including cats, as she has a strong chase instinct. All introductions should be done slowly and thoughtfully to ensure the best possible outcome! Baby is incredibly loving and has proven to be a devoted companion. After experiencing multiple transitions and finding herself in the shelter, she will need a little time and patience to adjust to her new home. With understanding and love, Baby is sure to blossom into a wonderful, loyal family member.

Story
Tank is a goofy, snow-lovin’ guy with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Tank is playful, affectionate, and full of joy, though beneath his fun-loving exterior is a sensitive soul. He can be a little shy when first meeting new people, but he just needs a moment to acclimate before truly opening up. Tank has been friendly with other dogs and enjoys playful interactions. He gets along well with his friend Demeter and is usually very polite! Tank would likely enjoy having a doggy friend, and we’re always happy to provide a meet-and-greet to help ensure a good match. It’s unknown whether Tank has lived with small animals or children, but we anticipate success with proper, thoughtful introductions! Tank is happiest when he has a positive outlet for his energy. He loves a variety of toys, going for walks, and most of all, romping through the snow! While he enjoys playtime, Tank truly melts for gentle pets — that’s when you see just how sweet and tender he really is. Tank appears to be potty trained, walks well on leash, and knows the cue “sit.” He’s truly such a good boy and we just adore him. If you feel your home could be the right fit for Tank, we would love for you to meet him!
