Story
Turret's original owner moved away and left him abandoned. Turret is 3. He is housetrained. He has lived with little kids and does just fine with them. He has not lived with other cats or dogs, but I would guess he'd love another dog friend to play with. He's the nicest dog I've ever seen. I've never once seen him growl, bark, or do anything aggressive in any way. He's very social. He likes to play tug of war and will eagerly run after a chew toy that you throw for him and bring it back to you (though he still hasn't learned the concept of letting the toy go ha). He can be very active, but is also just as content chilling inside next to you. He has no known medical issues and is a slim/fit dog. He is also crate trained. He's always been an inside dog, but has been left outside in a fenced yard to roam during the day from time to time. He's fixed. Turret is genuinely such an amazing dog. If I was in a conducive situation to give him the home he deserves, I'd keep him in a heartbeat.

Story
Hi there! My name is Hendrix & I am just the silliest, goofiest boy, with so much personality! I'm a 3 year old, 12lb silky terrier, who is looking for my new BEST friend! Let me start off with saying I’ll need a home without young humans.. I actually quite like them, but my terrier personality comes out at times, and that’s best suited for experienced dog owners & adult humans. I would also enjoy a home without another dog companion, unless they’re very submissive; I can be very bossy. I would definitely need to sniff noses before moving in together. Now to the good stuff… I LOVE to play. Sometimes my urge to play is so overwhelming that I get the trembles, but it can be quickly satisfied with a game of tug of war. I also enjoy playing fetch and accomplishing new treat puzzles. After some good play time, I enjoy cuddling up with my human & my teddy bear. I’ve got a doggy-vocabulary full of the funniest noises — like your very own odd little sound box. One of my favorite ways to communicate is by low growls, but rest assured, it’s just my way of telling you I’m content. Also, about those trembles I mentioned? They’re often accompanied by pleading whines to play, which my foster mom tells me are the cutest noises ever! I’ve been to a few fosters so far & I settle in VERY quickly! I’ve been pretty friendly with everyone; however, I like to choose ‘my person’ and once I do, I will quickly take my place as their protector. Because I really want to protect my special person, and I seem to have some anxiety about the danger they might be in sometimes, RCHS has started me on some calming medication to help me relax. I’ll likely need to be on this medication long-term, but it doesn’t slow me down – hurry up, throw that ball!!! If you’re looking for a rambunctious buddy who makes a wonderful cuddling partner, you’ve met your guy! Apply today & let’s meet!

Story
Hello, my name is Mark but my close friends call me “Good Boy!”” I don’t remember what happened, but I am very scared of just about everything. I’m not a lost cause though. I have lived in 2 different foster homes and I spent a lot of time at the hospital after I had hip dysplasia surgery. At each of these places I found someone that I felt safe with pretty quickly. Right now my foster home has other small dogs and I love following them around. They taught me that “do you wanna go outside?” was really fun. I have two nice little people (kiddlings) I live with and they think I’m a very cool guy. They feed me and I listen to them when they ask me to stop licking, I just like to let them know I think they are pretty cool too. Because I am so anxious/scared, I take medicine every single evening. I will probably be taking this my whole life. I’m ok with this because it means I get a treat every time I get my medicine. I would really like to find my forever person. My idea is someone who is a homebody that doesn’t get a lot of different visitors and wants a nice warm doggie head on their lap. Another dog or two would be great and I don’t really mind cats. Please consider giving me a chance to be your “best boy ever”. It will probably take a couple of months before I’m totally comfortable but I promise I will get there eventually.

Story
Omge Luna is such a cute pup to have. The moment i saw her it was like i knew she was meant for me and for my family but sadly i left for rotation and my landlord is now having an issue with my dogs being there. She is a very playful with either dogs or kids. Adored that about her. She literally loves cuddles and sleeping with others. She always needed to be in the middle when we were about to go to sleep. She is honestly a great dog to have. I adopted her at a shelter my first dog i adopted on my own so having to let her go is truly heartbreaking but i want her to go to someone that is able to truly give her something i was able to, sad to say. Her birthday is about to come up, estimated birthday is on January 20,2025. We have all her paper work. I know wherever or whoever she goes to she’ll be loved and great. She also has a sister, Mimi obviously not related but we got them kinda at the same time. They’ve been growing up together and it truly does break my heart separating them.

Meet Luster, the life of the party! At around 4 months old, this pit bull mix boy is outgoing, rowdy in the best way, and totally ready to play with anyone who will give him the time. He’s a fantastic “blank canvas” pup who just needs the basics: potty training, consistent routines, and some confidence-building on a leash. If you’re wanting a fun, active buddy with a big heart, Luster is your guy!
