Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Rocky, a stunning 3-year-old Golden Retriever with a big personality and even bigger potential! Weighing 75 pounds, Rocky is a high-energy boy looking for an active, dog-savvy family to help him grow into the amazing companion we know he can be. He thrives on attention and activity, so a securely fenced yard and plenty of time for play and exercise are an absolute must. Rocky is currently in a boarding facility, where he’s been working with a trainer. His trainer says he seems to be pretty easygoing with different kinds of people, but he does need an assertive, experienced handler for walks, as he is extremely strong and could pull someone off their feet if not managed properly. Rocky is still learning his manners so he’ll need consistent training and patient guidance to understand boundaries and expectations. He’s shown friendly interest in the daycare dogs he sees through the fence, particularly those who are not intact, but he has not yet been tested with other dogs or cats, so any introductions should be done slowly and carefully. We are not recommending a home with children at this time, as we have no history of him living with kids and he could accidentally knock them over. Rocky is also heartworm positive and cannot be neutered until he completes treatment, making a foster or foster-to-adopt home the ideal environment for him right now. With structure, consistent training, and lots of love, Rocky is ready to become the well-mannered, loyal, and fun Golden we know he can be. If you’re ready to help this energetic boy thrive, apply today!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 31, 2025, 12:06 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Albus, a 1-year-old Great Pyrenees mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart! Weighing around 60 pounds, Albus is young, curious, and ready to learn what it means to be someone’s best friend. Albus is currently in a foster home, where he’s working hard on potty training and learning basic manners. His foster is helping him not to lunge at cars on walks, and he’s making steady progress with patient, positive guidance. He can be a bit mouthy when he gets excited, but he’s eager to please and loves earning praise. He’s okay in a crate and learning to settle when it’s time to rest. Albus came to us from a shelter with a short tail, likely the result of a previous amputation or self-mutilation, but it doesn’t slow him down one bit — he still wiggles with happiness when he sees his people! At the shelter, Albus tested well with other dogs, and we think he’d enjoy having a canine friend to play with. We’re not sure how he feels about cats, so introductions should be done carefully. When he’s not in the mood to play, Albus is a total snugglebug who loves cuddling on the couch or sleeping in bed with his people. He truly enjoys being close and part of the family. Because he’s still learning and can be strong on leash, Albus will do best with a confident, active person who can guide him and manage him on walks. A fenced yard is preferred, as he enjoys exploring and having a safe space to stretch his legs. He was never taught commands before rescue, but he’s now learning to sit and starting to understand what’s required to be a “good boy.” If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who’s ready for a fresh start and eager to make you proud, Albus might be the perfect match for you.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 17, 2025, 11:11 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Caddie is a 12-year-old golden mix with a soft soul and a heart full of love to give. Weighing in at a petite 38 pounds, she's the perfect size for cozy companionship without taking up the whole couch (though she wouldn’t mind trying!). Caddie came to us after her beloved owner entered hospice care. While the transition was tough, she’s learning to open her heart again. She's a bit shy at first, but once she trusts you, she’ll seek out your attention and enjoy every moment by your side. She loves her walks and settles into a nice routine when she feels secure. She’s looking for a calm, quiet home where she can be the only pet and where adults will give her the time and space she needs to adjust. Once she knows she’s safe, Caddie’s loyalty and warmth shine through. If you believe in second chances and the quiet joy of a loyal companion, Caddie just might be the dog you’ve been waiting for.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 12, 2025, 11:36 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Poochie – Our Brave, Fluffy Ray of Sunshine &#226&#152&#128&#239&#184&#143 Poochie is a sweet-as-sugar Goldendoodle with a heart full of love and a spirit that lights up the room—even though she can’t see it. This beautiful girl is blind, but don’t let that fool you—she navigates life with grace, confidence, and a tail that never stops wagging. At around 1 ½ years old and weighing 48lbs, Poochie has already captured the hearts of everyone at the rescue with her gentle soul and courageous heart. She loves cuddles, soft voices, and belly rubs, and she quickly bonds with kind humans who give her time and patience. She might bump into a few things at first, but give her a consistent layout and a little love, and she’ll map your heart (and your home) in no time. One of Poochie’s absolute favorite things in the world? Running in the yard! She comes alive with joy when she can safely zoom around and stretch her legs. Because of this, a securely fenced yard is a must—not only for her safety, but to give her the freedom she loves and deserves. Poochie is great with calm, friendly dogs and cats, making her a wonderful addition to a multi-pet household. Her pet companions should be patient with her occasional accidental bumps and understand that she can’t see visual dog cues. She would thrive in a peaceful, understanding home with people who embrace her special needs and celebrate her playful, expressive personality. She is house-trained, crate trained, spayed, up to date on all vaccines, and ready to find a forever home where she can feel safe, loved, and cherished for the incredible pup she is. She does take daily eye drops for lubrication. &#226&#156&#168 Ready to meet your most loyal (and chatty) cuddle buddy? Poochie is waiting—eyes closed, heart open.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 25, 2025, 9:52 pm

Story
Jordan is under a year old- 22 LBS and is a great little one who was hit by a car and almost lost her leg. A note from her foster Mom Ruthie: Hi my name is Jordan the dog. Despite all the bad things that have happened to me, I'm a happy girl. The rescue picked me up from the pound when I had a broken leg and I couldn't use my leg at all. But now my leg is better, and I can use it and run and jump and play like I used to be able to do. I love my foster mom so much. All I want is to please her and do right by her and make her happy and be a good girl. I love all the attention and affection I can get from my foster mom and seek it out regularly. She tells me I'm a good girl and a smart girl all the time. I would do anything to protect my foster mom because I love her so much. I love my foster brother and sisters and their cats. I am a little shy and will warm up quickly. I'll love you too. I promise I'll be a good girl if you adopt me. I'm really looking forward to finding my forever family and my forever home. Please come meet me and consider adopting me. With love, from Jordan Her adoption fee is $200.00- Please remember she had surgery which was over 4K. If you are interested in adopting a very nice and sweet girl please fill out the application. Thanks for rescuing.

Story
Our dogs are cared for in loving homes, not kennels, and we work closely with each one to understand their needs, personalities, and quirks. This way, when you adopt, you know everything possible about your new companion — no surprises, just a smoother transition into your family. The adoption fee reflects the time, care, and support we dedicate to every dog, ensuring they are healthy, happy, and ready for their forever home. Buddy is a very gentle dog who loves people and didn't start his first part of his life in the best condition. Little note from his foster parents: This is Happy/but we've been calling him Buddy and he responds to that. We picked him from the shelter bc he was on the euthanasia list. He was great there and was good with other dogs but he didn't handle the veterinarian very well and was on the rescue list because of that. He had only a short time to live. Poor baby shook and shivered all the way home, he was so scared. He's young, and really wants to please people. He was an outside dog all his life, and seems to enjoy being inside but likes to play in the yard, too. Buddy knows basic commands like, Sit, Stay, Leave it. He does really well with our 8 year old twin grandsons, and is fine with our dogs. Would be better with mid to large dogs. If anyone would love a very pretty, very good boy…let us know. He has lots of love to give.Who needs a new best friend? He is mostly a mix of Labrador flat coated and shepherd. Shelter thought he was two, but the people who had him before told us that he was only a year old. His adoption fee is $100.
