Story
Kooper is 4 years old. He’s a lover, protector, and friend. Although he loves his little people he’s not very aware of them and would do better in a home without little ones to run over. Koop has no special needs, does well with other animals, and does best when he has a place to hide such as under a table or chair. (He is quite timid at times). His favorite thing is a cuddle and to hold the leash while you go on walks.

Story
Koe is 6 years old, his birthday is September 2nd, 2019. I picked him up when he was 8 weeks old and have been in love ever since. He’s a snuggler, a swimmer, a ball chaser and a lover. He loves everyone, gives the best hugs, and is 100% convinced he is a lap dog. He’s very sweet, has zero special awareness and is a little too excited to get through any door. Although he has been part of my family for 6 years, he’s become incompatible with the lifestyle that has changed for our newborn and toddler. He deserves the time and effort of a loving family with no little people to run over. He has separation anxiety, occasional ear infections, and severe anxiety and panic when it comes to rain and thunder for which I will provide his calming medication for.

Story
Hi, Im Azul! Im a smart, active cattle dog boy whos looking for a home ready to keep both my body and brain busy. Im a quick learner and love having something to do, especially if it means getting to spend time with my people. One of my favorite things is playing fetch, and Id love a fenced-in yard where I can run, stretch my legs, and burn off some of my energy safely. I am a heeler with herding instincts, so small children may not be in the cards for me. Im looking for someone who understands that active, intelligent dogs like me thrive when we have structure, exercise, and things to learn. If youre searching for a loyal companion whos ready to keep up with your adventures and learn right alongside you, I just might be your guy. We do not see Adopt-a-Pet inquiries!

Story
Hey, I'm Tron, and I'm really just good boy. I've got the whole "steady, reliable companion" thing down pat. I've got good manners, I listen, and I don't feel the need to make life overly complicated. I enjoy walks, treats, and most of all existing near my people. I don't need to be in your skin to feel safe and secure, simply being near you is enough. I'm happy to go stretch my legs for a walk around the neighborhood then come home and settle right back in with you because it's exactly where I belong. I'm pretty neutral when it comes to being around dogs on leashes, but recently we learned that I might not thrive best in a home with other dogs. I'm good with kids (I've even met a whole class of elementary schoolers!), but cats aren't really my thing, though, so I'm going to ask that you have no tiny furry creatures if you're thinking about taking me home. If you're looking for a calm, affectionate companion who'll stick by your side through day and night, I've got you covered. I'm not here to cause chaos - I'm here to be your constant. Let's have a good time! We do not see Adopt-a-Pet inquiries!

Story
Lorenzo is a middle aged husky who has ice blue eyes and is ready to be your BFF. He LOVES humans including kids. He enjoys getting affection from his humans and pets all over. He is an active dog who enjoys walks, runs, and playing with other dogs his size. He would love to go on adventures with his new family! He also enjoys napping with his humans after some playtime. He has high prey drive, as many huskies do, so his ideal family would not have any cats or other small animals. Lorenzo is such a fun, floofy dog - we love him and we know you will too!

Story
Hi! I'm Lyra (pronounced Lie-ruh). I'm a sweet lab girl who absolutely loves her people and ALLLL of the attention that comes with them. If you're petting me, talking to me, or even just looking in my direction, I'm pretty much in heaven. I'm easy to handle, gentle, and I would do wonderfully in just about any home I can think of. I walk nicely on a leash and seem to have learned things in my past life adventures like crate training! I'm happy to show off my manners when you come meet me. I've been told I am an all-around-good-girl! I really just want to be a part of a loving home where I can continue to shine. I do have a bit of a dramatic side with the funniest facial expressions - if I think I'm not going to get my way you will probably catch me pouting just a little. But it's all a part of my charm, I promise. Give me some love, treats, and a place by your side and I'll be the most loyal companion anyone could ask for. We do not see Adopt-a-Pet inquiries!
