Story
Meet our stunning friend Dusty! Dusty is a young adult shepherd mix looking for his perfect match. He has made so much progress here at the shelter and we are sure he will do so much better in a home! He’s a very active boy. He’s quite strong but he walks well on a harness. Dusty’s favorite thing in the world is playing fetch with a ball. You can always find him carrying one around the shelter. He’s learned “drop” and “wait” which makes fetch so much easier! This dog just wants a person to call his own. He may hog the bed and steal your heart, too! We are learning more and more about Dusty every day. From what we’ve observed he would thrive in an active home that can keep him busy. He needs a stable environment where he can settle down and have a good routine he can depend on. We are currently working on more dog testing but at the moment it seems he may do well with a very docile and laid-back dog. We are still watching though. He may prefer to be your only dog; we have observed a few jealous tendencies. He seems to be slightly spooked but vaguely interested by cats. He has not chased the cats he has encountered in a home environment with a staff member. He’s had some sleep overs and outings with staff that have helped give us some insight on Dusty. He would likely benefit from an experienced dog owner who is willing to provide him with training where he needs it. Dusty has wonderful tendencies for house breaking and when in a home environment he does even better. --IMPORTANT!

Story
Mookie is a 7-year-old Pit Mix. She has been in a foster home for a couple of years, and we are ready to get her into her forever home!! Mookie is sweet and playful, but she does prefer to be the only dog in the home. She will require a patient and experienced individual who can do slow intros and give her space when she needs it. Mookie keeps her kennel clean and enjoys playing with squeaky plush toys and snuggling in bed. She thinks she's a lap dog too, and it's hard to tell that little face no! She is current on all vaccinations, spayed, microchipped, and Heartworm Negative. Please give this beautiful girl a chance- you will fall in love!--IMPORTANT!

Story
Queenie is a gorgeous pitty mix who is just a giant baby in disguise. She is full of energy and loves to play! She has no knowledge of personal space and just wants to be on top of you and in your face. Queenie would do best in a home without other dogs or cats. She's done well with well-mannered kids but she is a jumper and may knock them over. She loves to greet you with her sweet face and wagging tail. She would make an excellent companion and cuddle buddy! She is easily spooked by strange objects (ex. wheel barrows, plastic bags), shadows, and some strangers and men- but she adjusts quickly. Please help us get Queenie out of the shelter!--IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ: If you would like to meet our adoptable dogs, you must be approved for adoption!

Story
Bea is a sweet, young adult shepherd mix from Kentucky! She is very sociable and loves attention. Bea needs a home without other dogs and no small children. Bea is sweet as can be with people, but does not like large dogs. We think she'd do well with someone who understands reactivity. She LOVES to play fetch and even has a very specific pink pufferfish ball that she carries with her everywhere. She is hoping to find an active family to play fetch and cuddle with. She will happily be your one and only!--IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ: If you would like to meet our adoptable dogs, you must be approved for adoption!

Where are our athletes at? Marlo has never ending supplies of energy and could 100% beat you in an arm-wrestling match if she had hands. She's all muscle and goofy loving eyes. Marlo LOVES balls: tennis balls, basketball-sized balls, giant indestruct-a-balls- you name it, she's playing soccer with it. Marlo needs an active and strong leader who can help her be her best! Are you looking for a buff dog to join your morning workout routine? Consider this giant goofball!

Story
Meet Chandler- a 2 year old blonde lab mix! This guy is the perfect friend! He does well with other dogs but is a very rough player. Chandler is a sweetheart with people. He gives good hugs and loves attention. He knows sit and paw and appears potty trained. Chandler's ideal family will continue his great work in positive-reinforcement-based training. When overly excited he jumps and mouths, but is doing well working on this issue with staff. He has so much potential in a home!Chandler has shown a large prey drive here at the shelter, he's particularly interested in birds and squirrels. Because of his high energy and prey drive, we are looking for a family with a fully fenced yard for him.
