Grace is a 2 year old Bordie Collie that is great with adults and kids, she is also house trained. She is very loving dog and likes to sleep or cuddle with you on the couch.

Story
He is a 3 year old mutt that I adopted when he was 4 months old. Up to date on all his vaccines until March of 2026. I need to rehome him due to my 1 Y/O daughter constantly trying to get into his space. I’m afraid one day she might fall on him or scare him and him react a certain way. He is an amazing dog. Walks great on leash and stays close without a leash as long as theres no other dogs too close. He loves to play fetch, go on walks, go to the park, hikes, and car rides. But when its time to chill inside he loves to lay in his bed and be lazy. He’s been around goats, chickens, horses and has done just fine around them. He would strive best with someone that has NO little kids and NO other dogs. Would do good with older kids that understand to give dogs their space. Makes a great companion,and will follow his person everywhere. But doesnt mind staying home resting. Hoping to find the right person show him all the love !

Story
For being 12 and technically a super senior, Gramps sure doesn't act it sometimes! He's still got plenty of spunk and life left in him! Gramps is a very smart dog who comes with quite a few tricks under his belt, including things like "Sit", "Down", "Stand", and even some pretty great loose-leash walking. Gramps is going to need no cats in his future home! Once we get Gramps out of the shelter, we think he will be able to fully decompress and settle into an easy loving couch potato lifestyle of a true HOUSE HIPPO! This sweet old man needs a foster home to decompress and heal from dental surgery! He will be available for adoption as soon as his mouth is all healed up and he's feeling better!

Story
Freya looks like a beautiful fox! She can be scared and shy with new people and is looking for a calm, gentle, quiet, patient home. Freya was most likely not treated well by her original owner. She is slow to warm up, then once she gets to know you, she is a wonderful and sweet companion who likes to approach people when she's ready. She loves other playful dogs, is loving, charismatic and the sweetest dog ever, when she feels safe. Freya is housebroken, great on leash, great snuggler, responds well to positive reinforcement training. Frey will not be a dog you can take downtown, or have her join you for drinks on a patio. She would make a great adventure buddy for someone who likes to get away from the crowds. We think Freya would thrive with another friendly and confident dog who can show her that her new life isn't that scary! This little lady does not want to be in a home with children, but we may consider teenagers for the right applicant. We really want to find her a calm and consistent home environment with her future furever family! We do not see Adopt-a-Pet inquiries!

Story
Ulysses is a handsome, confident, loyal purebred German Shepherd with the cutest floppy ears! He appreciates a confident handler and welcomes pets. Knowledge of sit, down, shake with both front paws demonstrates his intelligence and he LOVES FETCH!!! And he walks well on a lead. Ulysses would do really well in an active household with seldom visitors. He has a little stranger danger that is manageable for the right adopter! Please contact us for more information about our lovely Uly! He would do well as an only dog or with another dog who does well at coexisting. He will probably not be a playmate for your current dog. :) No kids please! We do not see Adopt-a-Pet inquiries!
