Story
Jolene is a sweet dog. We brought her home from the SPCA about five years ago. She is a black mouth cur mix. She is great with kids, but she cannot be around other dogs or cats in the house. She’s very loving. She’s very caring. She is on aqua pill for allergies and does have an anxiety prescription. She loves going on walks. She is very big on treats and belly rubs. She also loves having peanut butter on a lick mat with maybe some yogurt. We are moving to a new location and that is why we are retiming her.

Story
We have had Copper since the day he was born. He is currently 4 years old. He has issues with potty training. He will go outside but then comes inside and goes again. He needs someone who has the time and Patience to train him properly. Copper sleeps in a cage with a blanket. (He wont sleep without it) however he pees on the blanket so daily washing is necessary. He is use to sleeping/playing with his actually Mom (shes 9) so he will need to adapt being alone. He has a grass allergy that seems to be year round but worse in the summer. This only affects his belly and needs allergy meds from the vet. Nothing over the counter works. He also needs his rabies shot updated. (Expired Nov 2025) He uses stairs to get up on the couch, no issues with his legs. Barks at everyone he doesn’t know. Will never bite.

Story
Figgy is a very sweet girl. My husband got her for me as a present when she was just a couple months old. She is fixed, potty trained, crate trained and knows some basic commands. Unfortunately, our house has become a massive project that we were not planning on. Between my husband's work schedule and our children and all the work to do, we don't have the time, or frankly the energy to spend as much time playing with and training Figgy as we'd like to. She can no longer run around freely in the backyard because of the projects and when she's inside she is always trying to chase and play with my husband's cat. She's never been aggressive with him, but she's a decent bit bigger and he is definitely not a fan lol. Every dog we have brought her around, she is immediately friends with and loves playing with them. She's nice with everyone she meets but she can definitely get excited! She is a beautiful and sweet girl, I hope that you can give her the life we want for her.

Story
Kodiak came from the breeder Twisted Huskies in Oklahoma. His breed is Huskimo. I purchased this dog for a colleague of mine so he can provide socialization. My friend lives alone and has no family. Kodiak is an awesome support animal to my friend Robert. He also has his older canine brother, Koda to form their perfect little family. However, my friend Robert has been sick with a serious condition and is in and out of hospital. He is a veteran and cared for his animals exceptionally. A couple residents in his RV park care for the dogs when my friend is hospitalized. But his health has deteriorated so much that he can barely care for the dog when he is home. The adoption is urgent. If something happens to my friend, his beloved animals will end up at the pet shelter and most likely euthanized after a week if not adopted. His older brother is 13 year old and will need adoption as well. We will separate them if this is the only way we can get them re-homed. Thank you.

This sweet girl is Mae. She's the third dirt road puppy. She caught parvo and was so sick. We were so worried.and kept preparing for the worst. But she fought hard and pulled through. She is so amazingly sweet. She deserves the perfect forever family for sure.
