Story
,Harley's Story Meet Harley, a gentle and loving senior dog, 19 lbs., who is looking for his forever home. Despite facing challenges as a blind and hard of hearing pup, Harley is a testament to resilience and an embodiment of unconditional love. Harley was found in a field, attacked by something, with individuals suggested shooting him!! We were called and went and rescued this sweetheart. Vetted him and he is healing from his injuries. He had bloodwork and he was slightly anemic, little kidney disease, prostate is huge, hoping it shrinks with neutering. Dental and neutering is scheduled for Aug 27th. With a heart as big as his tail wag, he is eager to shower his new family with kisses and affection. Harley is an incredibly smart boy who is sure to charm his way into your heart. He is house-trained and well-mannered, never causing a fuss or making a sound. He just wants to be surrounded by love and warmth in a stable environment. Imagine coming home to his enthusiastic tail wags and getting covered in kisses it's the best feeling in the world! Harley would thrive with a retired couple who can offer him the attention, care, and stability he needs. He prefers a quiet home without other pets, as he tends to get excited and following them around and gets in their space! With his gentle spirit and loving nature, Harley is the perfect companion for someone looking for a loyal and devoted friend. If you're seeking a calm and affectionate addition to your family, look no further than Harley. He is ready to leave his difficult past behind and embark on a new journey filled with love and happiness. Could you be the one to show him what a perfect life feels like?

Story
Rye is a great dog. He is loyal to a fault, but has become too difficult for my wife to handle. He loves being outside, running, and playing with logs (yes you read that correctly, LOGS). My favorite description of him is “big dog, big emotions.”

Story
Melo is incredibly sweet, affectionate, playful, and loves being close to his people. He can get very excited when meeting new people and animals, so he would do best with someone who has the time and patience to continue working with him on calm greetings and manners.In most areas, Melo is well trained and highly intelligent. He loves to run around, cuddle, and play fetch.Melo is still working on recall and maintaining focus when outside the home. Indoors, his recall is amazing, but outside, his youthfulness and excitement can sometimes take over.Melo has been our best friend and our shadow. Due to medical changes in our lives, we have made the very difficult decision to find him a home that can continue providing him with the love, attention, activity, and happiness he deserves.This is not an easy decision for us, and finding the right home for Melo is extremely important.

Story
I got Duke from a coworker who breeds Belgian Shepherds and have had him since he was 8 weeks old. He turned 2 years old on June 12, 2026. Due to the breed of dog that he is, Duke needs lots of physical activity and exercise. He’s still a puppy in many ways and loves to play, has lots of energy, and loves being outside. A perfect home for him would be one where he can run a lot and be played with regularly. Duke is a gentle, sensitive dog, highly intelligent, and loves a job to do. He’d make an exceptional guard dog too.
