Story
Trooper is a sweet, easygoing French Bulldog with a big heart and an even bigger love for the simple things in life. His favorite activities include going for walks, playing in short bursts of excitement, taking long cozy naps, and soaking up all the belly rubs and affection he can get. If there’s a soft spot on the couch or a sunny patch on the floor, Trooper will find it and promptly roll over to kick his feet up in pure bliss.He’s a quiet companion who rarely barks and prefers a calm, relaxed environment. Trooper can be a little cautious around new people, especially strangers and loud, energetic children, but he is never aggressive—he simply keeps his distance until he feels comfortable. The good news is that “getting comfortable” doesn’t take long for him, especially when patience and kindness are involved.Trooper’s biggest special need is that he was born incontinent, so he requires a caregiver who is understanding and attentive to his bathroom needs. Because of this, he will do best with someone who is home more often or willing to accommodate a bit of extra care throughout the day.He has been through several homes where he was deeply loved, but ultimately found his needs to be more than expected. What Trooper truly needs now is a stable, patient home that sees him for who he is—a gentle, affectionate little dog who wants nothing more than comfort, routine, and companionship.In the right home, Trooper is going to be someone’s loyal shadow, nap buddy, and quiet best friend.Requirements: Martingale Collar; Maintenance Regarding IncontinenceAll of our dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, up to date with age appropriate vaccinations, heart worm or feleuk/FIV tested, fecal tested, rabies and tag, and microchipped before being placed in your home. Our adoption fee helps cover this cost.

Story
Meet Penny — a beautiful reddish-gold pit/hound mix with soulful eyes, adorable little neck tufts that seem to have come from who-knows-where, and a personality that keeps people smiling. One of the first things you’ll notice about Penny is her uniquely expressive eyes — a little buggy-looking in the absolute cutest way possible — giving her a constant look of curiosity and charm. Penny originally came to us from a local vet office, though we unfortunately do not know the circumstances surrounding why she was surrendered there. Upon arriving with us, Penny underwent heartworm treatment and has completed it successfully, so she’s now feeling great and ready to find a home of her own.She’s an energetic girl who enjoys exploring the world around her — especially if snacks are involved. Penny is very food motivated, making her a great candidate for continued training and bonding with her future family. While she can be a little aloof at times and marches to the beat of her own drum, she has a fun, lovable personality that grows on you quickly. She also feels very strongly that bath time is unnecessary. Penny has done well meeting other dogs here at the shelter and also scored well when introduced to a cat. Based on her easygoing nature, we think she would likely do just fine in a home with kids as well. Another bonus? Penny keeps her kennel impressively clean, so we believe she is likely housebroken too.Penny is currently listed as a foster-to-adopt placement, meaning H.A.L.O. will continue covering her monthly heartworm prevention and her required 6-month post-treatment retest, which will confirm that she is officially heartworm negative. If you’re looking for a unique, goofy, beautiful girl with plenty of personality, expressive eyes, and a love language centered around treats, Penny may just be your perfect match.Requirements: Martingale Collar; Foster To Adopt (Heartworm Retest)All of our dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, up to date with age appropriate vaccinations, heart worm or feleuk/FIV tested, fecal tested, rabies and tag, and microchipped before being placed in your home. Our adoption fee helps cover this cost.

Story
Meet Bella – the Golden Girl of Cozy Living! ☁️💛After spending her entire life with one loving family, sweet Bella found herself at the shelter through no fault of her own when financial hardship made it impossible for her family to keep her. While that kind of change would be difficult for anyone, Bella has remained exactly what she's always been: a gentle, fluffy ray of sunshine.At 9 years old, Bella has perfected the art of relaxation. Long walks? Optional. Chasing squirrels? Sounds exhausting. A soft couch, a comfy dog bed, and a family to love? Now we're talking. This docile golden retriever mix is happiest enjoying the simple pleasures in life and being near her people.Bella has lived with other dogs, gets along well with cats, loves children, and greets everyone she meets with her sweet, easygoing personality. The only thing she isn't a fan of is thunderstorms.Bella does have some medical needs. She has a condition called perianal fistula, an inflammatory disease that causes painful wounds around the rectal area. She's currently doing well, but will need lifelong medication, monitoring, and a prescription hydrolyzed protein diet to help keep flare-ups under control. She also takes daily thyroid medication. Her future family should be prepared for the ongoing cost and commitment of managing these conditions.The good news? Bella recently had a dental cleaning, so her pearly whites are sparkling and ready for plenty of treats and smiles.If you're looking for a calm, loving companion whose biggest goal in life is to be a fluffy little cloud beside you on the couch, Bella may be exactly who you've been waiting for.Requirements: Martingale Collar; Thyroid Medication; Special Diet; Meds/Care for Perianal FistulasAll of our dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, up to date with age appropriate vaccinations, heart worm or feleuk/FIV tested, fecal tested, rabies and tag, and microchipped before being placed in your home. Our adoption fee helps cover this cost.

Story
If you've ever wanted a Husky with plenty of personality, Winter is ready to apply for the position.This beautiful 5-year-old came to H.A.L.O. when her owner was facing a move and spending too much time away at work. Winter has lived with teenagers, another dog, and even a cat, and she generally loves everyone she meets. She gets especially excited around people and other animals, which can sometimes lead to a little pulling on leash as she rushes over to make new friends.Winter is mostly housebroken and will usually ask to go outside, though if she's ignored or left alone for too long, she may leave a reminder by the door. Like many Huskies, she's also incredibly smart—and not always in ways that benefit her humans. Unlocked doors are merely suggestions, standard crates are no match for her escape skills, and if she gains access to the house while unsupervised, any reachable trash can may become a snack bar.When she's not plotting her next adventure, Winter enjoys car rides, cuddling with her people, carrying around her beloved giant teddy bear, and snuggling with her blanket. She knows sit, down, and shake, although whether she chooses to show off those skills depends entirely on her mood. And squirrels? Let's just say she considers them her sworn enemies.Winter is looking for a family that appreciates the intelligence, independence, and occasional mischief that Huskies are famous for. In return, she'll provide endless entertainment, plenty of affection, and enough personality to fill an entire house.Requirements: Martingale Collar; Escape ArtistAll of our dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, up to date with age appropriate vaccinations, heart worm or feleuk/FIV tested, fecal tested, rabies and tag, and microchipped before being placed in your home. Our adoption fee helps cover this cost.

Story
🐾 Meet Tipsy! 🐾Warning: meeting Tipsy may result in uncontrollable smiling.This 1-year-old American Bully is a beefy, goofy, big-hearted guy with ears that look like they could pick up satellite signals and a grin that could brighten even the darkest day. Underneath all that muscle is just a giant puppy who wants nothing more than to love, play, and be part of a family.Tipsy came to H.A.L.O. when his owner was facing eviction and homelessness, and unfortunately there was no family or friends able to take him in. Now he's looking for a new home where he can be loved as much as he loves everyone around him.Tipsy is the perfect mix of couch potato and bowling ball of energy. One minute he'll be happily lounging with you, and the next he's zooming around like he's late for an important appointment. He's housebroken, crate trained, knows sit and lay down, and has never met a snack—or a toy he's allowed to chew—that he doesn't absolutely adore. He also loves a good game of "chase me!" and will happily turn anything into a fun adventure.While Tipsy has never lived with other animals, his interactions with dogs and cats at the shelter have shown us that his intentions are nothing but friendly. He does, however, have a lot of enthusiasm packed into one big body, so any future furry friends should be introduced slowly.Because Tipsy is still learning that he's not actually the size of a lap dog, we think he'd do best in a home without children under 5 years old so his happy zoomies don't accidentally turn into a full-body tackle.Tipsy is a big baby with a big heart, big personality, and an even bigger appetite for life. If you're looking for a goofy, affectionate companion who will keep you laughing every day, this lovable chunk is ready to steal your heart. ❤️Requirements: Martingale Collar; Children 5yrs+ (Energetic/Jumpy)All of our dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, up to date with age appropriate vaccinations, heart worm or feleuk/FIV tested, fecal tested, rabies and tag, and microchipped before being placed in your home. Our adoption fee helps cover this cost.

Story
🐾 Meet Skye 🐾For the last nine years, Skye had the most important job in the world: taking care of his person.This handsome 9-year-old Husky first came to H.A.L.O. as a young dog before being adopted as a service dog. Being by his owner's side wasn't just what he did—it was who he was. As he got older and could no longer provide all the support his owner needed, he was lovingly retired and placed with another family. They cared deeply for him, but after a lifetime of constant companionship, Skye struggled being left alone and developed separation anxiety.Now, he's looking for a home where he can simply do what he loves most: be with his people.For a Husky, Skye is wonderfully laid-back. He’s housebroken, loves relaxing indoors, enjoys playing with people and other dogs, and knows sit, shake, and lay down. He can even balance a treat on his nose like a pro. His favorite snack is popcorn, and loud noises like thunderstorms and fireworks are not his favorite.Skye isn’t looking for another job—he’s already done that. He’s looking for someone who is home often and wants a loyal companion by his side. After spending his life caring for others, it’s finally his turn to be the one who’s cared for.Skye recently discovered that stuffed toys are especially tempting and has made it his mission to squeeze, chew, and work at small toys until he can swallow them. Because of this, his new family should be mindful about keeping small toys or similar soft, chewable items safely out of reach. A home without small children would be best to help prevent him from accidentally eating children’s toys.With the right environment and a little supervision, Skye is an amazing companion. If you’re looking for a gentle, devoted best friend who will happily follow you from room to room, Skye is ready to spend his retirement exactly where he belongs: by your side. ❤️Requirements: Martingale Collar, No Small Children : Eats Toys.All of our dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, up to date with age appropriate vaccinations, heart worm or feleuk/FIV tested, fecal tested, rabies and tag, and microchipped before being placed in your home. Our adoption fee helps cover this cost.
