Story
Asher is a beautiful boy. He is protective in personality and would do well with some one familiar with guard breeds. We are having a baby and cannot keep him. He is a deaf dog but understands sign language. He can run off leash and will return to your side. He would be a great police or search dog as his nose is impeccable. Please adopt Asher. He is a good dog just has a high prey drive and further training.

Story
Layla is about a 1 year old lab mix full of energy and love. She still has the typical puppy energy and behaviors, she is crate trained but can still bark a bit when left alone. She can be a pretty rough player with other dogs hasn’t quite learned manners even though we have tried to train her. so if you have another dog in your home they need to be okay with rough play or know how to correct other dogs. She can not be around cats as she chases mine and tries to bite at them I believe trying to play but its to much for the little cats as she could hurt them I’ve tried correcting this but she’s just to playful. Our work schedule have changed and we Are not able to give her the training or exercise she needs she needs a home that can give her attention time and patients with her. She would make a great dog for an active house who has the time to help her get all this puppy energy out she’s a great dog and a great cuddle buddy!

Story
See my Video! Onyx is a 9-year-old Chihuahua with a big personality and a soft spot for his people. This calm and clever little guy knows tricks, loves playing with soft toys, and enjoys heading out for walks to explore. Once he bonds with you, he'll be your devoted shadow, always eager for a butt rub and some quality time. Onyx has a protective streak and takes his role as your guardian seriously, so his adopter should expect him to act as a watchdog when visitors come over. Because of this, a calm, low-traffic home without a lot of new faces would suit him best. He's nervous when meeting new people but warms up with time and patience. Onyx isn't a fan of being picked up, but he has plenty of other ways to show affection. He's never lived with other dogs and is a bit wary of them, so if you have another dog he would love to meet them. However, he's done well living with cats in the past. Due to his protective nature and need for a calm environment, Onyx would thrive in an adult-only home where he can settle in at his own pace. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will love you fiercely and make you smile every day, Onyx may be your perfect match! If you're ready to adopt now and want to learn more about, meet, or adopt this pet, you can start the process in one of two ways: Come on in during open adoption hours Tuesday - Saturday 12:30-3:00!

Story
Meet Bailey, a 7-month-old German Shorthaired Pointer who's all about fun, love, and energy! This sweet and playful pup has two speeds: play hard and nap hard. One of his quirkiest (and cutest) habits? Carrying his blanket around the house like it's his favorite treasure-though he's always ready to drop it for a good game. Bailey was surrendered because the older dog in his previous home wasn't a fan of his youthful enthusiasm, but he's done great making friends with other dogs since and hasn't met a person he didn't adore. He's house trained and handles alone time well-aside from occasionally licking shoes, but hey, who doesn't have a weird hobby? He hasn't lived with cats, and given his breed and natural prey drive, we'd recommend a cat-free home. Bailey has lived with teenagers and did well, making him a great fit for an active family with older kids who can match his energy and keep him entertained. If you're ready to welcome a playful, blanket-loving companion into your life, Bailey is waiting to join the fun!
