Story
Scout is long-haired German Shepherd. She's been with our family since she was 9 weeks old. She grew up in a big family. She's great with kids of all ages, special needs kids, and the elderly. She does well with large dogs but doesn't donwell with smaller animals. She doesn't get along with cats. I've returned to work full time, I can't be home with her or find a pet sitter., She's spending a lot of time at the kennel and needs a good home. The family interested must prove they can take care of her. We're willing to help the right familly with her food, medical needs (shots), and flea & tick costs for the season. She NEEDS a new home by the end of April.

Gizmo is a 2 year old mix breed. Loves people and kids! Loves playing with balls and squeaky toys. Kennel trained and does not use the bathroom inside. Loves being outside. He is good with other dogs, chickens, horses. Not too sure on cats really. I cannot take him where i am moving to :(. I just really want him in a good home that will give him the attention he needs and takes care of him.

Story
Meet Ash! This lively, friendly girl would love nothing more than to find a family of her own. She has been one of the longer residents at our shelter and is often overlooked due to her active personality. Once she is away from the hustle and the bustle of the shelter, she really is a super sweet girl! She enjoys spending time relaxing in the shelter manager's office while she works on paperwork. Ash does great would other dogs and kids. In fact, we think she would do best in a home with another dog to help keep her company while her family is away. Ash unfortunately likes to chase cats so would do best in a home without them. If you're interested in meeting Ash please reach out to us!

Story
Meet Peaches! This girl is such a great girl. She is still pretty young so has a lot of learning to do BUT she is very, very food motivated and would be super easy to train. She gets along great with other dogs. She does well with kids but would probably do best with older kids. She gets a little nervous when very young kids rush up to her. Since she has spent a lot of the time in the shelter as a young dog she does need a little work on her house training skills. She would love nothing more than to live with an active family to take her out and about on adventures. If you think Peaches might be the perfect fit for you please reach out to us to schedule a time to meet her!
