Story
Delight has big brown eyes that will melt your heart and a delightful personality to go with them. She is a happy and sweet girl that likes to be with her people and cuddle next to them on the couch. She joyfully plays with toys, enjoys chew toys, and tummy rubs!  She is on medicine due to damaged caused by heartworms. However, she still enjoys a typical walk around the neighborhood. She has a tendency to dash at cars while on walks so her forever person would need to be able to handle that.  She would be the perfect dog for a person or couple looking for a lower-key companion to curl up this winter. We are looking for her to be the only dog in the home. Her adoption fee has been sponsored which means the adopter pays no fee. However, a adoption application still needs to be submitted and approved. Who can open their home to this sweet girl?May 6, 2024, 9:42 pm

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 does well with other calmer dogs. 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)May 6, 2024, 9:42 pm

Story
Overall a very sweet and affectionate dog about 6 years old that we rescued 5 years ago. Does well with her housemate king charles spaniel dog and our two young children. Does well in doggy daycare too. Loves to run and especially chase things being a border collie. Loves to give hugs on command with her head on your shoulder. Overall healthy. Has has had previous bladder stones but where removed. Up to date on all shots. Should have lots of room to run and a secure fenced backyard. Has chased other dogs and slipped under a fence too so a secure area is needed.

Story
Bobo is a 5 year old Lab mix. I got him when he was 7 weeks old from a past relationships coworker who couldn’t keep him. He has been a great dog. Is amazing with kids, other dogs and cats. He loves to snuggle and truly is a big baby. He has the “puppy eyes” that will melt your heart. I would love for him to find a family who is able to give him more attention and time. Being a one adult household with a teen in traveling sports it’s hard to give him what he needs.
