Story
Meet Tripp, professional toy destroyer and full-time shadow. Wherever you are, he’s right at your feet. That’s how he got the name, and he’ll happily trip you to prove it. Tripp was born with two tiny eyes, and one had to be removed because it wasn’t functional. He can’t see much, and he doesn’t seem to know it. He plays hard, runs happy, and tears through a stuffed toy like it owes him money. He’s silly, high energy, and thrilled by pretty much everything. He gets along great with other dogs and cats. What Tripp wants most is his person: someone who’ll toss him a toy, let him sit on their feet, and keep the furniture rearranging to a minimum so he can learn his space.

Story
Meet Casper! 🐾 Casper is a three-year-old Blue Heeler with a big heart and lots of love to give. He is a sweet, caring, and affectionate boy who does great with kids and gets along well with other animals. He loves being outdoors, running around, and playing, so he would thrive in a home where he has plenty of space and time to enjoy his favorite activities. Unfortunately, due to a recent move to a new home and a new job, I’m no longer able to give Casper the space, time, and attention he deserves. This is a very difficult decision, but I want what is best for him and want to find him a loving home where he can be happy and thrive. Casper deserves a family who will love him, give him plenty of attention, and let him enjoy the active life he loves.

Story
Lexa is a 2 (next month) year old American Bully who is an amazing dog who needs a home with no small animals and NO cats. She is territorial over her food with other dogs but not the dog she has been living with. However …. she cannot be with cats.Lexa is an amazing loving dog. She’ll curl up and nap with you and be your best friend. She has NEVER met a stranger she doesn’t love. I have acquired her through emergency and cannot keep her because of my cat. Right now I have them separated but I cannot keep her anymore. If I could I would.Our goal is to find her a home where she will be loved and cared for! She loves walks…treats and people. She loves everyone.
