Meet Rocket – Your Personal Launchpad to Fun and Cuddles! Ready for blastoff? Rocket is here to take your heart on an out-of-this-world adventure! This spunky, outgoing young lovebug is bursting with energy and affection—and he’s got the perfect mix of playfulness and snuggle skills. Whether he’s zooming around during playtime or curling up for a cozy cuddle session, Rocket knows how to make every moment count. Rocket’s a star player in playgroups and knows his doggy manners like a champ. He loves making furry friends and thrives when he’s got other pups to chase and wrestle with. Because of his social nature, we recommend Rocket find a home with other dogs or a family who can treat him to regular trips to the dog park—after all, even the most amazing rockets need to blow off some steam! Found as a stray, Rocket’s past is a bit of a mystery, but you’d never guess it—he acts like he’s always been surrounded by loving humans. His signature happy dance will have you grinning every time he spots his favorite people or dinner coming his way. Though Rocket is still learning the ropes of basic obedience, he’s already impressing everyone with his leash manners, often staying close by your side on walks like the perfect co-pilot. If you’re ready to add a little rocket fuel to your life and bring home a furry friend who’s equal parts playful and loving, come meet Rocket at the Ranch today!

Story
Meet Freya! If you’re looking for a truly special companion who’s bursting with love and smarts, Freya just might be your dream dog! This unique and adorable girl has been patiently waiting since December 2022 for her perfect forever family—a home where she can give all the hugs and kisses her sweet little heart (and body!) can muster. With her cuddly personality and sharp intelligence, Freya is ready to fill your life with joy and endless snuggles. Freya’s not just a sweetheart—she’s also a clever learner who thrives on new challenges. She already knows how to “Sit,” “Down,” “Roll Over,” and gently take treats, and she’s eager to learn even more. Imagine all the tricks and fun games you could teach her with a little one-on-one training! She’s a quick study and a true star when it comes to obedience. When it comes to other dogs, Freya has had plenty of positive experiences here at the shelter. She’s developed a special preference for confident male companions who are cool with letting her be in charge—because this little lady loves to take the lead! A home with that perfect balance of fun and respect would be ideal for her. Freya would thrive in a moderately active home where she can romp around, play fetch, and keep both her mind and body moving. Because she tends to hold onto weight, it’s important she finds a family committed to keeping her at a healthy weight through regular exercise and proper care. Could you be the lucky person to give Freya the loving home she’s been dreaming of? Don’t wait—call the Ranch today and come meet this incredible girl who’s ready to steal your heart!

Story
Meet Tocho – Your Next Loyal Adventure Buddy! Looking for a smart, active dog with a big heart and an even bigger brain? Meet Tocho – a handsome, mature boy with charm, wit, and a love for toys that rivals his love for people! Tocho is incredibly intelligent and already knows a whole toolkit of tricks including Sit, Wait, Shake, and Down. He’s also a fetch expert — not only will he chase the ball with enthusiasm, but he’ll drop it neatly at your feet so you never lose track of it. He walks well on leash and enjoys being active, but he’s just as happy settling in with a favorite toy on a cozy bed. One of his quirkiest and cutest habits? He’s so devoted to his toys that he’ll rinse them off in his pool to keep them clean! Tocho has done well with most respectful dogs and may enjoy having a calm, well-matched canine companion. He has been exposed to livestock in the past. His loyalty runs deep — once you earn his trust, it’s yours for life. ‍ He’s the kind of dog who will respect your boundaries if you respect his — mutual trust is key to a strong bond with him. Tocho does well in most fencing and loves having elevated surfaces to climb or jump on ‍&#226&#153&#130&#239&#184&#143, so a yard with interesting terrain or structures would be ideal. True to his active nature, he may prefer living primarily outdoors with access to indoor time and companionship. He thrives with purpose, space, and enrichment. To help him thrive, Tocho will need a dog-savvy, adult-only home  that understands the needs of an intelligent, energetic dog. With structure, patience, and understanding, he’ll be an incredibly rewarding companion. If you’re ready to meet a smart, loyal, and adventurous dog who will be by your side through thick and thin, call the Ranch to meet Tocho today!

Story
Meet Ella – Sweet, Spunky, and One-of-a-Kind Ella is a goofy, determined, and affectionate girl who’s full of personality and heart. She absolutely lives for her toys, loves splashing in water, and never turns down a tasty treat. One of her most endearing quirks? She does a joyful little happy dance around her favorite things — it’s pure magic to watch! While Ella has had a tough start in life, she’s never lost her spark. She came to us as a young pup after experiencing a medical emergency (a prolapse) that her former family couldn’t afford to treat. She was understandably shut down at first, but with time, love, and patience, her silly and playful nature began to shine. And once it did — we knew we had someone truly special on our hands. Ella is what we lovingly call neuro-diverse. She moves through the world in her own unique way, with some behaviors that may seem a little different — like circling or moving her head in figure eights, and having a shorter attention span than most dogs. While we don’t have a formal diagnosis, it’s clear that she experiences and responds to her environment differently. That’s not a flaw — it’s just part of who she is. She’s had some positive experiences with other dogs and may do well with the right calm, respectful canine companion. But what Ella needs most is a quiet, understanding home with adults (or older, gentle kids) who are patient, respectful of her boundaries, and ready to embrace her just as she is. Ella is bursting with love and zest for life — she just needs the right person or family to help her continue her journey. With the right match, she’ll be the most loyal walking buddy, couch cuddler, and source of daily smiles. If you're looking for a truly special companion who will fill your home with joy, call the Ranch and ask to meet Miss Ella today!
