&#226&#157&#132&#239&#184&#143 Meet Steve — Your Cool, Calm, Adventure Buddy! &#226&#157&#132&#239&#184&#143 Looking for a laid-back best friend who still loves a little fun? Steve might be your guy! Steve is a 10-week-old Husky/Collie/Big Dog mix with the dreamiest personality. He’s friendly with people, dogs, and kids, and while we’re unsure about cats, he’s shown himself to be a respectful, easygoing pup overall. &#226&#156&#168 Why Steve is special: Loves the cold weather and is perfectly happy chilling outside Moderate energy — enjoys playtime but also knows how to relax Crate trained and dog-door trained (already a pro!) Does great with older, respectful kids Would thrive with another dog to show him the ropes  Steve’s ideal home: A house with a yard where he can lounge in the fresh air, a family who appreciates his calm, steady nature, and maybe a canine sibling to keep him company. Steve is that rare mix of handsome, gentle, and easy to live with — the kind of dog who fits right into your life and makes it better without demanding chaos.January 10, 2026, 10:59 am

Story
Milo is a 7 (?) year old male chihuahua mix.  He's timid around new people but is loving and playful once you've gained his trust.  He's a goofy boy with tons of personality.  He likes to play with other smaller dogs but is a bit fearful of high-energy larger dogs.  Milo would do best in a quieter household without young children.  His favorite things are going for walks and his stuffed giraffe.  He also loves to snuggle up with his human on the couch or in bed.  Milo is filled with love to share with a person or family who will give him a chance.September 21, 2025, 2:11 pm

Story
Meet Lady! Lady is a 2-year-old Kelpie/Bloodhound mix with a huge heart and a wicked-smart brain. She came from Dallas and has been thriving in her foster home ever since. Lady is deeply affectionate and bonds quickly, but she’s a little shy at first — especially around hands — and appreciates someone who lets her set the pace early on. Once she trusts you, she’s loyal, loving, and all-in. As a true working-breed mix, Lady is sharp, eager to learn, and loves having a “job.” If it moves, she’ll try to herd it, so she does best with adults and either as an only dog or with dogs who won’t mind her instincts. She absolutely shines with consistent direction, structure, and clear boundaries. Lady’s superpowers: Wicked smart + quick learner Treat-motivated and thrives with positive reinforcement Nose that never quits — she loves scent work and mental games Bonds deeply once she feels safe Lady is also working through a few things: she can be leash reactive, she has some resource-guarding tendencies, and she’s still learning to trust hands. The good news? She responds incredibly well to training and consistency. Her foster family, along with guidance from a trainer, has already given her a strong foundation — especially with her crate, which she now sees as her safe, cozy spot. Lady’s dream home: Adults only A yard for zoomies Someone steady, patient, and consistent An adopter excited to continue training (she loves it and learns fast!) If you want a smart, devoted, endlessly rewarding companion who’s ready to grow with you, Lady could be your girl. She just needs the right person to bring out her very best.  December 14, 2025, 8:53 pm

&#226&#156&#168 Meet Erica — Your Ride-or-Die Adventure Girl! &#226&#156&#168 If you’re looking for a best friend, shadow, and lifelong sidekick, Erica is that girl. Erica is a 10-week-old puppy with a big personality and an even bigger heart. She’s loyal, smart, and spunky, the kind of dog who wants to be wherever you are — hiking trails, weekend adventures, or just following you from room to room like your built-in bestie.  Erica in a nutshell: A true ride-or-die companion Smart, eager, and excellent adventure material Great with dogs and people Best with older kids or kids who understand big-dog energy Already crate trained & dog-door trained (yes, already!) Would love a canine buddy to pal around with  Important to know: Erica is not an apartment dog — she’s a bit of a talker when left alone and prefers a home where she has space, stimulation, and ideally another dog for company.January 10, 2026, 11:21 am
