Story
Hiiiii, I’m Elowyn! I was found as a stray, so I’m still figuring out this whole “being someone’s dog” thing—but I think I’m catching on pretty quickly! I’m a friendly, happy girl who loves treats, toys, and giving sweet little kisses. I walk pretty nicely on leash and have a calmer side for my age, but don’t be fooled—I also love to play! I enjoy chasing games and can hang with both high-energy and chill dog friends. Sometimes I get a little too excited and might be a bit mouthy or pushy, but I’m still a puppy and just need someone to show me the ropes. I don’t really know any commands yet, but that just means we get to learn together. I’m smart, eager, and full of potential—I just need a patient human to help me shine. If you’re looking for a fun, loving girl to grow with, I might be your perfect match.

Story
Hey there! I'm Beauty, and I'm looking for my forever family! I'm a girl with a gorgeous red coat and a personality to match! I love meeting people and will happily shake your hand or even give you a high five if you'll share a treat (don't worry—I take them very politely!). I'm always ready for some fun! I love playing chase, tug, and romping around the yard. After I've gotten my zoomies out, I'm all about ear scratches, back rubs, and snuggling up with my favorite people. I've lived indoors my whole life and already know the house rules. I'm house-trained, know some basic commands, and I'll let you know when I need to go outside. I can be a little excited when meeting new people, but I settle down nicely and become the sweetest cuddle buddy. I'd also appreciate slow introductions to any dog friends since shelter life can make playtime a little overwhelming. If you're looking for a fun, affectionate best friend with great manners, a love for treats, and plenty of love to give, I'm your girl! Come meet me—I can't wait to give you a high five!

Story
Ahoy! I’m Remington, a pretty big guy with a friendly face and a great smile. I might be deaf, but that doesn’t stop me from giving you my full love and adoration. I love to play and have a lot of energy! I’m a people person and enjoy hanging out with my humans. I’m also a big fan of treats and love giving big ol kisses. I know how to sit when you give me a hand signal (how cool is that?). I’m looking for a home where I can be loved and have lots of fun. Are you ready to be my best friend? I am sure ready to be yours!

Story
Meet Isles Isles is a sweet girl who’s looking for a patient, loving home where she can feel safe and grow in confidence. She can be a little fearful at first—especially around men—and will need time, kindness, and lots of encouragement to help her come out of her shell. Isles would do best in a quiet home with a fenced-in yard where she can relax and explore at her own pace. Once she feels comfortable, her personality really shines! She loves soft, cozy beds, tasty treats, and playing with her favorite toys. With patience and gentle support, Isles has so much love to give and will make a wonderful companion. If you have a calm home and a big heart for a shy pup, Isles might be the perfect match for you!
