Story
Hi, I'm Jake! I'm a sweet 6-7 month old pup (likely Australian Cattle Dog and Border Collie mix) with striking black, tan, and white markings. My journey hasn't been easy. I was abandoned near a highway in Arkansas in mid-June, terrified and alone. But a compassionate woman never gave up on me. She fed me consistently and helped me get the medical care I desperately needed.Now I'm healthy, vaccinated, and ready to heal—but I'm still searching for the family who will give me the forever home I deserve. I'm intelligent, playful, and full of love. I adore chasing tennis balls, following my favorite people around, and connecting with calm, gentle dogs. When I'm tired, I love to curl up in nice, comfy blankets.What I need most is a patient, nurturing home where I can finally feel safe and learn what it means to truly belong. I'm ready to give you all the unconditional love my heart has to offer. Will you be the one to write the happy ending to my story?"

Story
Meet Smalls, a sweet, brilliant, and affectionate 13-to-14-week-old puppy looking for her forever home!This clever girl is potty trained, doing fantastic with crate training, gets along great with other dogs, and has mastered commands like "Sit," "Come," and "Hand-Touch."Smalls has wonderful energy, but her absolute favorite thing in the world is to curl up right by your side for endless snuggles. She would thrive with a loving family ready to play and shower her with affection!She comes with her kennel to help her settle smoothly into her new home (If needed).Health: Up-to-date on all age-appropriate shots (records provided).

Story
My elderly parents moved in with us and brought Samson with them. He's become too much for them to handle and primarily stays at our house. He's around 2 years old. My wife and I are gone to work most of the day. Samson is a very social dog and wants very much to bond. He's looking for his person. We can't show him much attention so he wonders and gets into neighborhood trouble. He's very, very smart and eager to be trained. He has a lot of love to give to the right family or person.Update: please help, time is running out for Samson. He needs a kind loving person or family. He would be a great dog for emotional support training, or any other service dog training. There's no fee, it would just cost you affection, please help.
