Story
This is Maple! We acquired her from our local fire department! Maple was a stray that wandered into the fire house. One of the fireman took her in while she was being seen at the vet for getting shots and spayed. We were then lucky enough to meet her and knew she’d be perfect for our family. The vet thinks she is around 2 years old now. Maple is truly the best dog. She is super fun, very energetic, and extremely smart. She also loves to cuddle! She is great with other dogs (we put her in doggy daycare) and fantastic with young children. Unfortunately, our life is progressing fast and we aren’t able to give Maple the attention and time she truly deserves anymore. We are looking for a new home that has plenty of space for her to run around and play (she loves her toys) and owners that will give her the time and attention she deserves. This has been one of the toughest times in our life, but we love her and only want to see her enjoying life to the fullest!

Story
A few months ago, we found a dog in our neighborhood. She was not microchiped and had no collar. Two weeks later she gave birth to seven adorable puppies! Athena is one of those puppies. We have had her DNA tested. She is mainly pitbull and Staffordshire terrier. Athena was born on May 9, 2026. Athena is a calm, gentle soul. She rolls over on her back for belly rubs every single morning. She gives the best hugs! She also plays with her siblings a lot. Athena needs a home with a lot of attention, and someone with patience to help bring her out of her shell. Athena sleeps a lot because she’s still a puppy. Athena is going to make somebody a wonderful companion! Her ideal Home would have a backyard.

Story
Milo is such a sweet boy. He is an amazing companion to snuggle with. He loves to take walks and rides in the car with the windows rolled down. Because of his keen sense of smell, he loves to be outdoors. Having the opportunity to be outside often would be a win for him, while he is capable of roaming the house even when no one is there without causing any damage.
