Story
Keeley is the sweetest German Shepard (we think lab) mix. She is truly the kindest dog! She needs a home that has the time to work with her on her training! Small kiddos stress her out but again, if it was the right home she would thrive! She loves hard which makes her protective over the things she loves most. She has started training and done incredibly well but unfortunately the incredibly busy lifestyle and chaos our home has is too much for this protective girl! She would thrive in a quieter home with other younger pets!

Story
Mando is named after the Mandalorian because he too is a foundling. Our neighbors found him wandering the street as a puppy and after being unable to find any owners they were going to take him to a shelter. We volunteered to take him into our home instead. He has been with us for the past two years but unfortunately he is not a good fit for our family and has some trouble getting along with our other pets. He is a sweet smart guy who is very loyal to his main human but would be so much happier as a single pup in a family with older children. We are looking to find him his loving forever home where he can be the center of attention and get all the cuddles! This is a lap dog for sure! High energy, he loves to run run run, however he plays rough and can forget how strong he is. We love him and want to see him thrive, we're just not the right family long term.

Story
We have had pookie for a very long time since she was a couple of months old and she 7 years old as of today. Recently she just need a lot of attention and when that doesn’t meet her needs she lashes out, gets into the trash and pees and or poops when not taken out, nonetheless she is a sweet heart and loves cuddling up beside you, she is a great dog but need constant attention and needs people to spend a lot of time with her. It’s very sad that i have to give her away but I just want the best for her cause i can’t meet her need and she needs some who can.

For this reason we use variable adoption pricing. By assigning higher adoption fees to high demand moms and puppies, we are able to rescue more families in need.The money raised through these adoptions acts as a benefactor to moms and puppies in our care who require expensive veterinary treatments, have behavioral issues, or need more time to find a home.
