Story
Meet Your New Best Friend! Jayce is a 3-year-old Brittnay Mix who is looking for his forever home. While he might be a little shy when you first meet him, give him a moment to come out of his shell, and you'll find a funny, bouncy, and deeply loving companion. Jayce is a "paws-on" kind of dog! He is famous for his hugs and will spend his time trying to wrap his paws around you if he isn't already trying to curl up in your lap. He is the perfect blend of a lounge partner and a playmate. Because of his cautious temperament, Jayce has some specific needs to help him feel safe and successful: No Other Dogs: He prefers being the "only child" and can be reactive toward strange dogs. Quiet Environment: He would not enjoy the high-stress environment of a dog park. Patient Humans: He needs an owner who understands he needs to approach new things at his own pace. No Strangers (at first): He can be vocal with people he doesn't know, but his loyalty to his inner circle is unmatched. If you have the patience to let him blossom, you will be rewarded with a level of love and loyalty that only a dog like Jayce can give. He is ready to be your most devoted friend. Jayce's adoption fee is $325 to offset the cost of vetting and help other rescues in need. He is currently located in Georgia and can be transported up to 1400 miles via our Canine Railroad.

Story
Adopted Bounston from Louisville Metro Animal Service. He was listed as a 1 year old stray but has signs of muzzle trauma. However, he shows no signs of timidness or distrust and is always ready to be somebodies best friend, whether he’s playing to his hearts content or needing some cuddle time. He’s the friendliest dog we’ve ever met and would love for him to find an owner who’s ready for his companionship. He does get riled up and very excited around strangers so behavior training may be essential, but in no way is he a threat. Just needs some love and attention! He’s also a gnawer so he needs bones and hard toys to bite on.If you have any questions, it's best to get ahold of me through texting me 502-230-0882. You can also send an email to devin.cambron07@gmail.com

Story
We got buster when he was a few weeks old & we rescued him from a very sad situation. This was not long after we had our first son. He is about a year old right now. We didnt realize how hard it was going to be taking care of a puppy pitbull mix while also raising a newborn. Because of this buster does not get as much attention as he deserves. He is a great dog but my wife & I both work full time & have a 1 year old & now we're pregnant again. He is crate trained & a great, sweet dog but he is young with alot of energy & we simply cant give him the attention & love he deserves. He has had all of his shots & we were intending to get him neutered soon but will leave that up to whoever decides to adopt. He knows basic tricks & hes good with cats & kids.

Story
I got Duke from a coworker who breeds Belgian Shepherds and have had him since he was 8 weeks old. He turned 2 years old on June 12, 2026. Due to the breed of dog that he is, Duke needs lots of physical activity and exercise. He’s still a puppy in many ways and loves to play, has lots of energy, and loves being outside. A perfect home for him would be one where he can run a lot and be played with regularly. Duke is a gentle, sensitive dog, highly intelligent, and loves a job to do. He’d make an exceptional guard dog too.

Story
Leo is a 12 year old collie and has lived with us since he was a puppy. We also have another dog that constantly wants to fight with him, so it’s best if he can find another home with possibly no dogs or cats. He is a loving dog a loves to be petted and rubbed.
