Story
Meet Wally!Wally is a very sweet and adorable small/medium sized, round, 3 year old Brittany Spaniel/Terrier mix who is looking for a loving home. He has had quite a challenging life and hasn`t ever truly got to experience a family of his own. Because of this, he can be somewhat shy and needs slow introductions when meeting new people, but once he gets to know you and warms up, he will be your best friend for life! He loves playing with toys, going on walks, car rides and swimming! Most of all, he loves belly rubs!Wally would ultimately do best in a home with no other pets, although, he could potentially live in a home with a smaller dog. Wally just needs someone with patience, someone to not give up on him. Every living thing truly deserves to feel love and have a family, please give Wally this chance. All Wally wants for Christmas is a family.Wally`s adoption fee is $150 and includes core vaccinations, rabies vaccination certificate, neuter, heartworm tested and preventative, and a microchip. Please stop in to meet Wally! Our hours are Tuesday-Saturday from 1pm-4pm. You can start the adoption process by filling out our questionnaire at agcshelter.org/adopt-1.

Story
Carl is one big lovable goofball looking for a family who can appreciate all his quirks and charm. With his long legs, soulful eyes, and silly expressions, he’s got that “big puppy energy” in the best way. We suspect there’s a bit of Great Dane in his genes — not just because of his size, but also his gentle demeanor and goofy personality.Carl is sweet as can be and has a heart of gold, but don’t expect him to be in a rush to do things your way. He’s definitely got a stubborn streak — the kind that makes you laugh more than anything else. He might look at you like, “Are you sure we’re doing that?” before eventually deciding it’s a good idea (especially if treats are involved).Despite his size, Carl is incredibly gentle. He plays nicely, loves a good belly rub, and can often be found sprawled out in hilarious positions, legs everywhere, just living his best life. He`s still learning the ropes when it comes to manners, but he’s eager to please (in his own Carl way), and would thrive with someone who can keep training fun and consistent.Carl would do best in a home that has the space — and heart — for a big, playful, slightly clumsy guy who just wants to be loved. He’d enjoy a yard to romp in, maybe a canine sibling to play with, and a person or family who will embrace all the silliness he brings into the room.If you’re looking for a dog who will keep you laughing, snuggle up like he’s a lap dog, and love you with all his goofy heart — Carl might just be your perfect match.Our dog adoption fee is $150 and that includes up-to-date vaccinations and preventatives, spay/neuter, heart worm testing, and their microchip.Meet our adoptable pets Tuesday-Saturday from 1pm-4pm or get a head start on adoption by filling out our questionnaire at agcshelter.org/adopt-1

Story
Bubbles is a 5-month-old bundle of joy with a big heart and even bigger zoomies! This playful pup is full of energy and loves to run, play, and explore the world around her. She’s smart, curious, and always up for a new adventure—whether it’s chasing a ball, learning a new trick, or racing you to the next patch of grass.Right now, Bubbles is more of a playtime partner than a cuddle bug, but with a little time and maturity, she’ll likely grow into a loving, loyal companion who enjoys quiet snuggles after a busy day.Bubbles would thrive in an active home that can keep up with her energy and enthusiasm for life. If you’re looking for a fun, spirited pup to join your adventures and make you laugh every day, Bubbles is your girl!Her adoption fee is $150 and includes up to date vaccinations, preventatives, heart worm testing, her spay, and her microchip.
