Story
Meet Baloo!This handsome, sensitive guy has been through a few big transitions and is looking for a patient, dog-savvy home ready to help him settle in at his own pace. While he did well in his familiar bubble — including daily playtime with a neighbor’s dog — Baloo has shown us that new people and new places can feel overwhelming at first. He’s a slow burn who needs time, structure, and understanding as he adjusts.Baloo is a total foodie, which makes him a fun and eager training partner! He already knows cues like sit, paw, and down, and he loves a good game of catch. Once he’s comfortable, his playful and engaging personality really shines.Baloo’s first few weeks at home should be calm and predictable, with a small social circle and plenty of space to decompress. He’s looking for adopters who can read his body language, respect his need for space, and use positive reinforcement to help him build confidence. He would do best as an only dog while he settles in, though a dog-savvy cat may be possible with slow introductions.If you have patience, a sense of humor, and enjoy training and enrichment, Baloo could be an incredibly rewarding companion. Come chat with our team to see if he might be the right fit for you!

Story
If you`re looking to add a little music to your life, then look no further than Monte! This handsome fella is a beagle through and through: he loves to sniff, chase bunnies and squirrels, and sing from the rooftops, letting the whole neighborhood know he is there! Monte has lived outside for most of his life, and has been through several different homes in the past year, so he may take some time to learn the ins and outs of living in his next home. He has a successful history living with dogs and kids and is always excited to meet new people.Monte has been through a few transitions recently, and may need a gentle start, but once he feels secure, he’ll reward you with endless love and loyalty!

Story
* My adoption fee will be waived February 13-15 * Indigo is currently in foster care &#8211: if you are interested in meeting Indigo please fill out this inquiry form and a member of our foster team will be in touch to coordinate a meet up! Meet Indigo, a sweet, slightly shy senior pittie who enjoys naps, calm companionship, and being close to her people. She&#8217:s an easygoing, affectionate dog who would do best in a quiet, low-key home. Indigo has a few manageable medical needs and will need a future knee surgery, but she&#8217:s otherwise a gentle, content companion. She could live with a respectful dog who understands her shy tendencies, would do best in a cat-free home, and is looking for humans who can practice calm, considerate interactions. If you&#8217:re searching for a relaxed, loving dog who&#8217:s happy to take life at a slower pace, Indigo may be the perfect fit.

MEET REMI! This wonderful, super sweet and loving pup is ready for her forever! REMI LOVES her humans. She is great in the home. She is good on the leash. Very friendly and sweet! REMI's ideal home would be one that LOVES big dogs! (she is about 86 lbs), LOVES this breed and is experienced with it. She can be with other dog or dogs (intros always needed), but would also be fine as solo. **Adult only or a home with kids over 12**. We believe REMI to be blue lilac tricolored XL Bully ... but who cares? She's gorgeous! REMI is about 11 months old and weighs approximately 86 lbs. She is UTD on vaccinations and spayed.

Story
Meet Sam, a 9-year-old neutered male Rat Terrier with a huge heart and deep devotion to his people. He has been loved since puppyhood, and we are seeking a home where he can truly thrive. Sam is affectionate, gentle, loyal, and happiest when included in daily life. He bonds closely and loves to relax near his person. He is fully house trained, crate trained, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. He has received excellent veterinary care and responds well to calm, consistent leadership. He is used to a training e-collar and understands structure. Sam would do best as the only dog in a peaceful home where someone is around often. He will come with his crate, bowls, toys, e-collar, and complete vet records. He has so much love to give and deserves a devoted forever home.
