Story
Mila is an 11 year old female terrier mix that is looking for a forever home.  She is housetrained, likes to snuggle, nap, and play in small bursts. She loves being outside and can jump high so a she has a 6 ft fence requirement to ensure she stays contained and can enjoy the great outdoors. She prefers to get all the attention so is looking for an only dog home. She tends to use her voice so apartment or shared wall living is not recommended.  Submit an app if you are interested in Mila: MLA Adoption Application (formsite.com)February 11, 2025, 10:25 am

Story
Riley is a very sweet pitbull who loves to go for walks and play. She loves everyone with a passion and I mean everyone. She gets along with adults, kids, elderly and everyone in between. She’s not very good with other dogs though so I’d advise that you keep her away. She will become aggressive with them. My brother first adopted her last year. She was in the shelter for 7 months and put on antidepressants because of how sad she was. My brother felt bad and adopted her, but since then he went active duty in the military and handed her off to me. Since I work part-time and go to school full time and can’t take care of her the way she should be. While I love her and would hate to see her go, she deserves much more time and attention. Hopefully a loving family will snatch her up because she’d make a great addition. She just wants to be loved and being around people just makes her overjoyed. She’ll cuddle right up to you if you’re sitting and away be by your side.
