Details

Story

Max is a 3 Y/O Old English Sheepdog that we found when he was 6 months old. He’s a big boy about 85–90 lbs & has a tall, fluffy build. Max has a very loving, goofy personality & is incredibly sweet & affectionate. He loves to cuddle & sometimes forgets just how big he is! He gets along well with cats & generally does well with other dogs. He can become jealous when another dog is receiving attention and has shown some aggression toward our other dog in those situations. He is not currently neutered, & we’ve been told that getting him fixed could help with this behavior. We’re open to discussing options if that’s something you’d consider. We are rehoming Max due to his size and high energy around small children—he can get excited and accidentally knock them over. He would do best in a home without young kids and possibly as the only pet, where he can get plenty of attention. Max also requires regular grooming. He is a sweet, loyal dog who will thrive in the right home.

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Fae is a husky that was dumped in front of the clinic my dad works at a few months -less than a year back. She was freshly spayed, and microchipped, so I was hopeful that she was not a dump situation. Unfortunately, I was wrong. We have looked and looked, even our vet did some tracking, and we could track that she was spayed in a mobile spay truck, but no owner info was able to be obtained. We posted and searched with no luck.We have held on to her, as we didn’t want her to end up a statistic at the shelter, but she is not doing good with my tiny chihuahuas or cat. She does do well either my shepherd. We have managed to keep them separated most of the time since we have had her, but this is not a feasible, long term solution, and really not a life for her or the chihuahuas to live. Vet puts her at about a year old, and we suspect she is pure breed Siberian Husky.

Story

I found him abandoned by my home. He was left behind by homeless staying in an empty lot. He was alone for about 4 days before i seen him and took him in before rain started. He is still young so he enjoys alot of playtime and toys. He is being house trained, and currently crate trained. He does well with other dogs and can be shy at first but he is very loving. I haven't heard him bark, which lets you know he can be timid. He understands to leave things alone, and when to go to his bed, he has been learning quickly. He would be great for someone who is active or a big yard he can run around, he does prefer to be inside.

Story

Alba is a young, large‑breed female (approx. 6–10 months) who is friendly, people‑oriented, and trainable. We found her abandoned and took her in with the intention of giving her a stable, loving home. Over the past month+, we’ve worked hard to make it work, integrating her into our busy household with kids and other pets, building routines, and giving her as much structure as we could.Through this process, we’ve learned that Alba needs more time, space, and consistent training than our current season of life allows. She is a wonderful dog, but she is a large adolescent with the energy and needs that come with that stage.She's, affectionate and social, crate‑trainable and loves going to dog parks and does well with other dogs. She young and still figuring out boundaries. With the right structure, she will grow into an amazing and calm adult dog.We want to place her responsibly in a home that can meet her needs long‑term. Rehoming fee + adopter screening required.

Story

CoCo has been with us for 6 months, and we can’t believe he hasn’t found his forever home yet. He’s smart, silly, and incredibly loving — everything you’d want in a companion. We’re not exactly sure of his breed, but our best guess is a Labrador/Husky mix. What we do know is that CoCo is one-of-a-kind. He was leash trained in minutes, loves people, and has a personality that keeps you smiling. He even waits for you to get your camera ready before striking a pose! Before coming into rescue, CoCo was found on the streets with another dog — likely his closest friend. When that dog was tragically hit by a car and didn’t survive, CoCo refused to leave his side. His loyalty and love run deep, and he’s been carrying that same gentle heart with him ever since. CoCo would thrive in a home where he can be included in daily life. He has a lot of love to give and would make a loyal, fun, and affectionate best friend. If you’re not ready to adopt, consider fostering. It helps dogs like CoCo transition from kennel life to home life — and truly makes a difference. CoCo is neutered, vaccinated, and ready to meet you. Come fall in love with him today
