Story
From those sweet eyes to that goofy smile, Diesel loves to catch everyone's attention! He loves to play with people, knows how to sit on command, and would love to find his family this year as he's been waiting for over 1,000 days here at our shelter!! He's been to multiple adoption events, so we don't understand why this sweet guy continues to be passed by. His only restriction is that he is looking for a home with no other animals. He's does great on pack walks but after not having a home for years, he gets very attached to his family members and doesn't like to share with other animals when inside a home. He has NO ADOPTION FEE thanks to his sponsor. Diesel has already been neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested, and is up to date on vaccinations so this sweet boy is all ready to go! **Interested adopters MUST bring their own dog(s) that your new canine will be living with at your household. This is for our staff and your family to monitor their behavior in a safe place to help ensure all animals are happy moving in together**

Story
Have you ever met a dog who can make you smile just by looking at him? That's Beetle! He’s impossible to miss with his stunning brindle coat. Beetle is a playful, fun-loving guy who loves spending time with people. Whether he's showing off his silly side, chasing a toy, or simply soaking up attention, he has a way of turning ordinary moments into something special. His goofy personality and expressive face keep everyone around him laughing. While Beetle enjoys making human friends, he prefers to take introductions to new dogs at his own pace. Like many dogs, he appreciates having the chance to get comfortable and build confidence before diving into new friendships. He is also looking for a cat-free home where he can be the best version of himself. If you're searching for a loyal companion with a big heart, a playful spirit, and a personality that's guaranteed to keep you entertained, Beetle may be the perfect fit for your family! *Recently, after consultation with our veterinary team, Beetle's breed has been updated from a Pit Bull mix to a Mastiff/Boxer mix*
