Story

Meet Otto! The Sweetest Companion Looking for a Kid-Free Forever Home 🐾 Otto is a loving, loyal, and gentle soul who’s looking for a calm, adult-only home where they can truly thrive. This old guy has so much love to give — they’re happiest snuggled up next to their favorite person, going for walks, or just enjoying quiet time together. Otto is fully house-trained, knows basic commands, and has great manners around adults. They’re affectionate, intelligent, and form deep bonds with their people — the kind of dog who will always be by your side. While Otto a wonderful companion, they’re not comfortable around young children, which is why their current family has made the very difficult decision to find a home that better suits their needs.

Story

Meet Sissy, a lovable 5-year-old black pit mix who's ready to bring joy and affection into your life! Initially, Sissy needed some time to adjust to new faces and experiences, but with the support of our shelter team, she's grown into a much more confident and affectionate pup. She warms up to you, even though she may act differently from her kennel, she'll shower you with kisses and love once she's out of her kennel. Energetic and curious, Sissy loves playing in water and is a delight on walks and car rides. She's well-behaved on a leash and enjoys being on the move. Sissy would do best in a home without cats or small children, where she can fully enjoy her playful nature. If you're looking for a devoted companion who will keep you active and shower you with affection, Sissy is the perfect match! Thanks to a generous sponsorship, you can adopt Sissy without any adoption fee-making it the perfect time to bring this sweet pup home.
