Story
Opie is a kind soul. He loves long walks and belly rubs. He is mild mannered and energetic. His favorite pastime is looking at cows and grazing like one. He also enjoys rolling in grass and playing fetch. Think Airbud but cuter. He enjoys a combination of wet and dry food. We think Opie is around 5yrs. Unfortunately a family member abandoned him at our family home and we have taken over his care. My parents are elderly and incapable of caring for him any longer. My partner and I are relocating out of state and can not bring him along. We are looking for an experienced pet owner to take Opie on. Ideally someone who has both the space and time to care for him.

Story
Beaux came to our family from Columbus, Georgia, and has been a part of our family ever since. He is a sweet, energetic, and social beagle who loves attention and being around people. Beaux has a lot of personality and would do best in a home where he can get plenty of interaction, exercise, and time to explore. We are looking for a loving home with someone who has the time and space to give him the attention and activity he deserves. Our goal is to find Beaux a safe, caring, permanent home where he can be an active part of the family.

Story
Ace is a great dog full of love and energy, he just recently turned 2 years old in May 2026. He’s house trained and is very intelligent I joke around a lot about how he understands English. He loves to play and is great with kids he’s a perfect family dog. I just recently had a newborn and I have a one year old son so I just don’t have the time or resources I have to downsize from a townhouse to an apartment to save money and don’t have the space, so I would like to find him a good home instead of taking him to the pound he deserves a good life and I don’t want to neglect him he’s great

Story
Perry is a lovely boy! He knows sit, shake, down, roll over, a moderately long 'stay', here, and 'place' to send him to his bed! He is also potty trained, but he doesn't get along well with other dogs. He has been with our family for at least 13 years, but my parents recently got divorced, and neither wants to take him. I want to take him myself, but I have two cats who he would certainly eat -- he is a mutt, but he certainly has some kind of hunting ancestry and has a powerful predator drive for squirrels, cats, and other small mammals. He has never bitten a human, but routinely barks at new strangers. It does not take him long to get accustomed to people if they are introduced by someone he knows, so he is a great guard dog against strangers! He is old and has cataracts, but is very lively still! He loves going on walks. I have been told that if I don't find a home for him, he will be put down

Story
Mia is an 8-year-old purebred Beagle looking for a loving home. She is a smart dog who knows many commands, including sit, down, out, stay, wait, speak, leave it, off, no, and gentle when taking treats. She enjoys playing fetch, going on walks, and spending time with her people. Mia is food-motivated and learns well with consistency and positive reinforcement. She would do best with an adopter who can provide structure, patience, and regular exercise. She has a lot of love to give and deserves a home where she can thrive.
