Story

DOB: 2/11/2022Breed: Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier mix-Neutered Male 50lbs-Microchipped & fully vaccinated-Negative for heartworm & tick-borne diseases, and on a monthly preventative*Adoption Fee $300*A little bit about me… Hey there! I’m Alfred. I know I might not make the best first impression from inside my kennel. This has been my “home” for a long time, and I can come off a little strong when meeting new people. Please don’t let that stop you from getting to know me! I just take a little time building trust, but once you’re in, you’re in for life. I tend to warm up to women a little faster, but no matter who you are, if you give me a chance, I’ll show you my sweet and loyal side. I love going on long walks and playing fetch. Give me a long-lasting chew toy or a bone, and I’ll be the happiest pup around. I’ve spent most of my life waiting for my person. Could it be you? The highlights…-Guardian at heart-I display clean kennel behavior -I’d make a great hiking buddy-Very devoted to my peopleMy ideal home would include…-Patience is key. I may take time to adjust to a new home environment. Time, consistency, and positive reinforcement will help me as I learn.-Ongoing training and socialization. After spending most of my time in a shelter, I will have gaps in my social skills with people and other animals. Structed training, firm leadership, and controlled introductions to new situations will be essential.-Exercise and mental stimulation. Dogs with limited past experiences often have pent-up energy and curiosity. Regular exercise, enrichment activities, and structured routine will help me thrive

I’m a big girl with a sharp mind, and a whole lot of enthusiasm for life. I can be very sweet and affectionate once I feel comfortable, but I’ll be honest, I like to do things my way sometimes. I know my manners, I just occasionally choose to test them. One of my absolute favorite things is water! I also love toys and can happily play fetch again and again. I’m strong, energetic, and always ready for my next adventure, which means I’ll need continued leash training and a confident handler to help guide me. With the right person who enjoys training, playing, and a dog with a little sass, I’ll make a fun, loyal, and loving companion.The highlights…-I love playing in water-Regular grooming is a must -Very stubborn-Weary of strangers at firstKey points to know…-I’m still learning my manners. At 2 years old. I have lots of energy and a big personality. I can be stubborn and a little bratty, so I’ll need consistent rules and guidance to help me be my best self.-I’m smart and I know it. I catch on quickly, but I like to test boundaries. Positive training, patience, and follow-through will go a long way with me.-I need structure, not short cuts.

Story

DOB: 5/6/2025 Breed: Husky/Pitbull mix-Spayed female 26lbs-Microchipped & fully vaccinated-Negative for heartworm & tick-borne diseases, and on a monthly preventative*Adoption Fee $350*A little bit about me… Hi there, I’m Anaise! Just like my cartoon namesake, I’m the smart and gentle one of the bunch. I came here with my two silly brothers, Gumball and Darwin. We have already faced one of our toughest challenges together, we’re proud Parvo survivors! I’ll admit, I’m a little on the shy side. New people and loud places can make me nervous, so I take my time to feel safe. But once I know I can trust you, my sweet and loving side truly shines. I’ll be happiest in a home where patience and kindness are part of the daily routine. I love playing with other pups in playgroups, and I’m starting to learn that the world isn’t such a scary place after all. With a gentle hand and a big heart guiding me, I just know I’ll grow into the most loyal and affectionate companion ever. If you’re ready for a gentle soul who just needs a little time to bloom, pick me!The highlights…-I get spooked easily-Very sweet once comfortable -I take time to warm up to new people-I will need all basic trainingKey points to know…-Patience and gentle confidence are key: She will need time and consistency to feel safe in her new home. Avoid forcing interactions. Instead, let her approach at her own pace. Use calm voices, slow movements, and positive reinforcement so she learns that new experiences can be good ones.-Structure will help her feel secure: Establish a predictable routine for meals, walks, and quiet time. This consistency helps her understand what to expect each day, which reduces anxiety and builds trust. A stable environment will help her confidence grow over time,-Socialization should be slow and positive: Introduce her to new people, places, and other pets gradually, always pairing new experiences with treats and praise. Avoid crowded or loud settings until she’s ready.

Story

DOB: 12/5/2024 Breed: Redbone Coonhound mix-Neutered male 76lbs-Microchipped & fully vaccinated-Negative for heartworm & tick-borne diseases, and on a monthly preventative*Adoption Fee $500*A little bit about me… Hi, I’m Timber! I’m an extra-large, extra-goofy guy. I just turned one year old, but don’t let that fool you, I am ALL puppy, full force! I’m playful, silly, a little clumsy, and I have a big personality to match my big body. I’m still learning how to move through the world politely. My shelter friends have been working hard with me on leash manners, but I’ll be honest, right now I’m still a bit buck wild. Because of that, I will need an incredibly strong and confident handler who’s ready to keep up with me and continue my training. I do understand “sit” and “down” but still jump up when I am excited. I’m eager to please, I just need consistency, patience, and guidance to help me get there. With proper training, structure, and someone willing to invest time in me, I will prove to be a very well-rounded boy. If you’re looking for a big lovable goofball who will keep you laughing, I might just be the one for you!The highlights…-Very playful-Big boy=big stomach! -Sweet demeanor-Tall fence requiredKey points to know…-Size + Strength Matter: Extra-large dogs are incredibly strong. Even with the best intentions, they can pull hard, jump up, and accidentally knock someone over. A confident, physically capable handler is a must.-Training Is Not Optional: Full puppy energy in a big body means ongoing leash training, impulse control, and jumping manners will need daily work. Consistency, patience, and possibly professional training will be key to success.-Exercise + Structure Are Essential: Extra large breeds need both physical outlets and mental stimulation to thrive. Without proper exercise, routine, and guidance, their energy can turn into chaos.

DOB: 11/29/2021 Breed: German Shepherd mix -Spayed female 43lbs-Microchipped & fully vaccinated-Negative for heartworm & tick-borne diseases, and on a monthly preventative*Adoption Fee $350*A little bit about me… Pleased to meet you, I’m Mileena! Fierce in name, tender at heart. In the Mortal Kombat realm, I’d be known for my power moves, but here in the real world, my strength is in love and loyalty.

My heart yearns for human comfort and connection, and my ideal forever home will have someone by my side most of the time.

If you’re looking for a companion who will stick by you through every round of life’s battles, I’m ready to join your team!The highlights…-Sweet demeanor-Very anxious -I do not like being left alone-Great walking buddyKey points to know…-Patience is Non-negotiable: An anxious dog will need extra time to adjust . Progress may come in small steps, so consistency, calm reassurance, and celebrating little wins are important.-Alone time requires training: Anxious dogs often struggle with separation, so gradual desensitization, interactive toys, and sometimes professional guidance will be needed to help them cope.-Routine is Comforting: A predictable schedule for meals, walks, and downtime helps reduce anxiety and builds trust, making them feel more secure in their new home.
