Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Bella is wondering why no one is inquiring about her. Bella is a sweet lady who needs to be the only pet in the home. She doesn’t like to share the love. She lived as an only pet and prefers it that way. She is an active girl and she does her happy dance when she sees her leash, she loves to go for long walks a few times a day. Not a big fan of travel but gets excited every time a car door opens. Bella loves to cuddle on the couch to hang out. She follows you everywhere until she believes you are staying then she is off exploring. She is a toy hoarder but does not play with them. Loves to chase small lizards and flies. She can run but then again she is part Italian Greyhound. She just wants to be your best your constant companion. Italian Greyhound mix, 7 yrs old house trained, crate trained, up to date on vaccinations, spayed and microchipped. She currently weighs 16 # a bit overweight Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 14, 2026, 12:24 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Dina grew up in the rescue and is  housetrained. She picks up commands quickly, we are still in the process of haing her be comfortable in a harness and on a walk.     She loves to chew on toys, with some standing up to her better than others, but plush ones don’t stand a chance. She’s very active and needs another dog to play with. While she can be bossy, she backs down if the other dog asserts itself. Dina loves playing tag and is quite good at it.    She obeys when using hand signals, respects a water bottle, and has learned not to beg at the table. She hasn’t been around children, and it’s unclear if she’s ever even seen one. She is very loyal to her person, she loves to cuddle up to you and get attention or she will just hang out on the couch to watch tv.While leash training is a work in progress, Dina would thrive in a foster or foster-to-adopt home..  If you are seeking a dog to welcome into your family,  we invite you to consider her. While she may need time to feel comfortable with new people, her loving heart ensures she does not stay distant for long. Another dog in the home is requiredA fenced yard is requirement.She is a foster to adopt.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Tuck is still very shy around strangers, but once he gets to know them, he improves. He will need time to adjust to a new home and requires a household without children. He is housetrained and has learned not to beg at the table. No matter who is eating or where, he won’t approach unless invited. He has a big dog bark and will alert you when strangers are near. Once he trusts you, he’s incredibly loving and just wants affection—belly rubs are his favorite. He is also a talker and a groaner. All these characteristocs make him an adorable boy. He’s still resistant to the leash, but we believe he will thrive with the right foster family. Fenced yard is required and another dog is a must. Foster to adopt home and will be neutered before adoption.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 14, 2026, 12:24 am

Story
Molly is a 4 yo, 9.5 lb Jack Russell mix. She is kind, timid and has a history of surviving a hoarding environment and an interim shelter. She has been with me for 3.5 months. I live in a home that requires her to be leashed when outdoors and my backyard is not fenced. Molly needs a one-pet home with full access to an outdoor, fenced setting. She continues to make strides with bonding and can become stressed in the company of other dogs. She is better with small dogs. Her anxiety is lessening as she feels safe in a predictable routine. She eats well and follows a sensitive-stomach regimen. She is pad-trained for urine and is working on poop training. She is fine going outside (leash) and timing matters!! She is quick and smart! Food, crate, harness, leash and her favorite toys are included. I am confident she will thrive in well-matched environment. I have had to return work. Molly needs a person to be consistently available. Molly prefers a female caretaker.
