Hello there, my name is Cheif! I am a big giant goofball that loves to just have a good hang out session with my favorite people. I am a very particular guy that would prefer a home with NO CATS or DOGS! I am not a fan of sharing;) Chief is vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped ...so that means he is all ready to go home!

Hi, my name is Cooper! I just finished all my heartworm treatments and am in the clear for adoption! I am so ready to find my forever home! I love to play and have a lot of energy since I was on exercise restriction for my treatments. I'm all ready to go after getting neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and now on a monthly heartworm preventative. Ask a staff member more about how to take me home!

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Hi there, I'm Jessi! I came in with another dog and we were reclaimed once, but the next time we were brought in, they never came for us. So instead, we now have to call the shelter home. But I would so love for that to change! I'm a super sweet and loveable girl who loves to run to your feet and roll over for belly rubs! I'm a little picky on who I choose to be friends with, so they suggest bringing any existing dogs you have to do a meet and greet with me to make sure we mesh well!

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Hi there, I'm Pinball! My name really fits because I get kinda bouncy all over the place when I get excited, which is usually when I get attention from people which I love! I also LOVE playing with ropes and fetch! Although I'm still kind of learning that I have to actually give the ball back to get it thrown again, but I'm a super smart boy so I'm picking it up easy peasy! I am neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated, so I'm all ready to get out of this place and come home with you!

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Rokko, a sweet and goofy one-year-old pup who’s ready to find his forever family! This lovable boy came to us already neutered, and we’ve made sure he’s fully up to date on his vaccines and microchipped so he’ll always have a safe way back home if he ever gets lost. Rokko is still new to us, so we’re getting to know him more each day, but one thing is already clear—he has the kindest heart and a playful, happy spirit that’s hard not to fall in love with. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate companion to brighten your days, Rokko might just be your perfect match.
