Story

I acquired Blue from a former roommate, who had previously gotten her from another situation. Because she has already been rehomed before, my biggest hope is that her next placement is a permanent, stable home where she will not have to go through this process again. She is five years old and is an extremely loving, affectionate, and gentle dog. She is calm and peaceful, especially when she is with her person, and she does not understand personal space—she loves being close, cuddling, and staying under or right next to people at all times. Blue is very friendly with everyone she meets and is highly people-oriented. She is smart, emotionally intuitive, and thrives on attention and affection. She would do best in a home where she can receive consistent love, physical closeness, and companionship. She truly enjoys being someone’s best friend and is happiest cuddled up, being touched, and settling down to sleep near her person.

Story

Minnie Approx. DOB: 12-19-2025 Female Breed: Chihuahua mix (vet’s best guess) Microchipped Spayed Up to date on vaccines, including rabies Approx. 7 lbs Meet Minnie — a tiny bundle of energy with a big, happy personality. Minnie is playful, curious, and full of life. She loves attention, loves to play, and is always ready for fun. Whether she’s zooming around, playing with her sister, or curling up after a long day, she brings nonstop joy wherever she goes. She’s a fun, affectionate puppy who will quickly become your little shadow. Minnie and her sister Winnie were brought up from the South after being placed on a euthanasia list due to overcrowding. Now safe, she’s ready for her forever family. Since no history of parents is known, breed is a best guess based on vet evaluation.

Story

Stormie is about 5 years old going on 6. She loves to run and play with other dogs and would make a great companion to just about anyone. I am having to rehome her because I can no longer take care of her. My Fiancé and I had 3 dogs but after his passing, I discovered that I can’t adequately care for all three by myself. This decision has nothing to do with Stormie’s behavior or anything like that. I simply can’t do it alone.

Story

Freya is still patiently waiting for that ONE approved adoption application to come in. Freya has been with us for two whole years now. With no interest. Freya is still looking for her forever home or a foster family through a licensed rescue! She is current on her vaccinations, heartworm negative, spayed and microchipped. Her only flaw is that she doesn’t like to share her toys or food. Unfortunately miss Freya wants to be the only pet in her family’s house! She can be possessive over her food and her favorite toys so she will need to be the only pet in her home. She would also benefit from some more training. Some of our kennel girls have tought her the basics like sit, paw, and stay, but this girl is SMART and would thrive witheven more! Freya will love every human friend she makes! She just wants all the love and attention to herself 💜 If interested in Freya or if you think your reacue could pull her please give us a call!
