Story

~ I am so bonded with my sister Ally that we must go home together. ~ We can live in a single family home. Condos considered. ~ We have not had much experience with children but are willing to consider sharing our home with kids 12 years and older who can be gentle and respectful of pets. ~ Besides each other, we may like to live with another dog but we have not had much experience with cats. We may be willing to share our home with a feline. ~ We have a higher energy level and are looking for a home where we can get lots of exercise every day. ~ Our behavior is very typical for our breed. We are looking for someone experienced with sporting breed activities and can keep us thriving. Meet Abby! Abby is a 7-year-old, 61 lb spayed female Labrador Retriever who must be adopted with her deeply bonded sister, Ally. They were surrendered after their owner fell on hard times and are ready for a fresh start together. Abby is house and crate trained, friendly and playful when meeting new people, and reportedly enjoys other dogs. She has a medium to high energy level and loves classic Lab activities like swimming, walks, fetch, and car rides. She knows several commands and has experience with sporting breed activities (something she would love to continue doing in her new home). Ally and Abby are looking for an active, breed-savvy home committed to daily exercise and enrichment. They can live in a single-family home (condos considered) and may do well with respectful kids 12+ and possibly other pets with proper introductions.

Story

For the well-being of our dogs, our kennels are closed to the public for general viewing. If you are interested in one of our dogs, please call 1-800-452-0114 for more information or stop by our shelters 12:00pm- 4:30pm, 7 days a week and speak to one of our adoption counselors. ~ I can live in a single family home. ~ I want to live with sturdy kids over 10 years of age who are familiar with large, rambunctious dogs. ~ I may like to live with a dog but I have not had much experience with cats. I may be willing to share my home with a feline. ~ I am a high energy kind of dog and am looking for a home where I can get lots of exercise every day. ~ I am a great dog with lots of potential. I need a family experienced with large, hyperactive dogs. Meet Chechita! Chechita is a 52-pound, spayed female, large mixed-breed dog with beautifully long features-an elegant neck, long torso, and a unique, tri-colored look that makes her truly stand out. We havent had Chechita very long and are still getting to know her, but so far shes shown us that shes a social butterfly whos full of energy and potential. Because of her size, some hesitation around sharing food, and her rambunctious nature, Chechita would do best in a single-family home with sturdy kids over 10 years old. Shes an active, high-energy dog who will thrive with plenty of daily exercise, playtime, and structure. Chechita may enjoy having a canine companion, though proper introductions are recommended. She hasnt had much experience with cats but may be willing to share her home with a feline friend given time and guidance. Chechita is a great dog looking for an experienced home familiar with large, high-energy dogs. With the right family, she has all the potential to grow into a wonderful and loyal companion.

~ I can live in a single family home (condos considered). ~ I want to live with dog savvy adults only. ~ I may like to live with a dog but I have not had much experience with cats. I may be willing to share my home with a feline. ~ I am a high energy kind of dog and am looking for a home where I can get lots of exercise every day. ~ I am a great dog with lots of potential. I need a gentle and respectful family who is familiar with reading canine body language. Meet Hodar! Hodar is a 4 year old, medium-sized mixed breed with a striking black and white coat-and an even more striking personality. While hes still new to us, weve quickly learned that hes a super goofy, playful boy who absolutely loves a good game of fetch!
