Story
Meet Jinx! If you’re looking for a fun, spirited, and loyal adventure buddy — Jinx might just be your perfect match! This gorgeous 2–3-year-old Husky/Great Pyrenees mix weighs about 60 pounds and has all the best traits of both breeds: beauty, brains, and a whole lot of personality! Jinx is spayed, up to date on shots, heartworm negative, house trained, and walks well on a leash. She’s a high-energy girl who loves to play hard and run fast — sometimes so fast you’ll swear she’s part bunny with the way she hops and jumps! Because of her playful style, she’d do best in a home with a fenced yard where she has room to stretch her legs and burn off energy. Jinx gets along great with other dogs, though her enthusiasm can be a bit much for calmer or senior pups. When she’s in full play mode with another dog, she can get a little rambunctious and has accidentally knocked over a child who was in the middle of the action — so supervision and space during dog playtime is important. That said, Jinx is incredibly gentle, patient, and kind with children. She is currently living with toddler foster child who is still learning how to properly interact with animals. Even with his grabbing (which her caregivers are actively working to correct), Jinx has remained calm and tolerant. She truly has a sweet and forgiving nature with kids. She’s also good with cats, making her a great fit for many multi-pet homes. True to her Husky roots, Jinx loves to “talk” and share her thoughts in the most adorable ways. She’s sweet, loving, and full of life — just needs someone who can match her energy and give her the exercise and attention she deserves. Jinx can be shy or fearful around men, which suggests she may have had a rough experience in the past, but with patience and kindness, she warms up and shows what a wonderful dog she truly is. She’s not destructive — though she might sneak a chew on a toy when left alone — and she’s always ready to love and be loved. Jinx is ready to hop, play, and chat her way into your heart — could she be your new best friend? March 7, 2026, 10:05 pm

Story
Meet Mochi Mochi is a 3.5-year-old female Australian Cattle Dog/Australian Shepherd mix with a playful spirit and a sensitive heart. She’s great with dogs and kids, house-trained, crate-trained, and walks well on leash. Mochi absolutely loves bouncy balls and will happily play fetch for as long as you’ll throw! She enjoys running and staying active, so a home with a yard would be ideal. She can be anxious and tends to bark when startled by loud noises or someone at the door. Mochi also has occasional submissive peeing, which has improved with confidence-building but still happens at times. She’ll do best with a patient, understanding adopter who can help her continue gaining confidence. Mochi was rescued as a puppy after being abandoned with her siblings and is now looking for a new home due to recent life changes. With love, patience, and playtime, Mochi will make a loyal and fun companion. March 7, 2026, 10:05 pm

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Josie! She is a roughly 9 week old female Terrier Mix. Josie is the sweetest puppy in the whole litter! She is gentle, kind, and wants nothing more than to be held and carried around everywhere. She melts into being held the second you pick her up and is content to stay there for hours if you let her. A true little lap dog in the making! When not being held, she enjoys a bit of roughhousing with her siblings and can be a bit vocal when playing! Breed is a bit of a mystery since we do not know what the parents looked like, but we are guessing that there’s Jack Russell in there! She is one of the smallest puppies in the litter and as such will most likely be a small to medium sized dog somewhere between 20-40lbs full grown. She will be ready to go home at the end of March! She will be spayed, up to date on age appropriate vaccines, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $350March 10, 2026, 10:50 am

Story
Meet Stella Stella is a one-year-old Boxer mix weighing approximately 42 pounds. She is a sweet, affectionate, and playful dog with a fun-loving personality. Stella is both energetic and cuddly, enjoying active playtime as well as quiet moments snuggled up with her people.   Stella is a quiet and gentle dog who gets along very well with other dogs. She currently enjoys playing with her Border Collie foster sister and her Chihuahua foster brother. She also loves going for walks and is becoming more confident and comfortable on a leash each day.   Stella would do best in a home with a safe, secure fenced yard, which will give her the space to play and help her feel secure. She would thrive in an active household that can provide regular exercise and opportunities for play.   Stella is crate trained, appears to be potty trained, and does well with children.   She is spayed and up to date on all vaccinations. Stella is a wonderful dog who deserves a loving, committed home where she can continue to grow and thrive. March 11, 2026, 10:22 pm
