Story
Doby is a 1 year old female pitbull-boxer mix from an accidental litter between our two family dogs. She's the last of 10 puppies still searching for her forever home. As the runt, she's developing a bit more slowly, but she's full of charm—friendly, curious, playful, and easily distracted in the cutest way. Doby has never shown aggression and has never bitten anyone. She enjoys exploring and has a sweet, gentle nature. She's fully vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed. We’re looking for a loving, patient home—ideally with someone experienced with puppies or bully breeds—who can continue her training and give her the attention she thrives on. Doby has so much love to give and would do best in a home where she’s not left alone for long periods. We just want the best for her.

Story
Milo is 8 1/2. We rescued him in January 2018 from Thailand. He was a street dog who was then placed in a pound, then a rescue organization. Brought to the US by a friend of a friend. We thought we could help him as he suffered a lot of abuse young. He has had lots of training and does well with the standards(heel, sit, place), but struggles when someone comes into his home or too close to him. He takes fluoxetine for anxiety and it helps a little. Seperation anxiety and people coming into his home unless he knows them well. He growls aggressively and barks. He needs someone very familiar with training dogs and dealing with a potential biter. We spent the last 8+ years with him. Our circumstances have changed enough that it will only build on his anxiety and we have grandchildren that we feel would be in danger if they were to visit us. We currently do not allow them to be with Milo. This is not an easy decision and we will not give him up if it is not a good move where he’ll be happy.

Story
Meet Honey Honey is a beautiful mixed-breed dog the color of sweet golden honey, with a heart to match. She truly believes she is a lap dog, and whether or not she fits has never stopped her from trying. If you sit down, she will gladly make herself at home right on you. When Honey first came to the shelter, she was very scared and shut down. Everything felt new and overwhelming, but even then, she always looked to people for comfort. That quiet trust showed just how gentle and loving she really is. With time, patience, and kindness, her personality has begun to shine. Honey loves her toys, her people, and pretty much everything life has to offer. She gets along well with other dogs and even cats, making her a wonderful fit for many types of homes. She is affectionate, sweet, and happiest when she is close to the people she loves. Honey is the kind of dog who will curl up beside you, lean into your affection, and remind you every day how powerful love and reassurance can be. She is ready to find her person and her forever home. Honey is living the good life in a foster home, so if you would like to meet this gorgeous girl, fill out an adoption questionnaire at animalcareleague.org and we will set up a time for you!

Story
Our boy Gabe is basically a ray of sunshine wrapped in fur—he’s playful, goofy, and rocks a permanent smile that could light up an entire room (seriously, it’s contagious). Literally a cutie pie! This happy go lucky guy is always down for some fun, whether it’s zoomies in the yard, a game of fetch, or just flopping over for belly rubs like the lovable goofball he is. He’s a total people-person and loves making new human friends. He would prefer to be the only canine king of the castle. Other dogs? Meh. Gabe knows he’s the whole package— so no extras needed! If you’re looking for a buddy that is silly, sweet, and always smiling, Gabe’s your guy. Come meet him and prepare to fall in love (and maybe laugh a lot). If interested, you can fill out our application on our website at animalcareleague.org!
