Story
Meet Beau! He’s a 6-year-old blue merle Aussie, neutered, and one of the sweetest dogs you’ll meet. He loves belly rubs, wiggles his whole butt when he’s happy, and is a champ on a leash and loves sniff walks! Beau needs to be an only pet. This isn’t negotiable as he’s attacked our other dog multiple times, completely out of nowhere, and we’re worried it’ll end badly if we wait any longer. He’s been fine with kids before, but given how unpredictable he can be, we wouldn’t recommend him for a home with children. He’s surprisingly low-energy for an Aussie and happy to just chill. He does love fetch and going on errands where people can fuss over him. He’s terrified of thunder and fireworks (a calming wrap and a quiet basement help), and he will go after the blender or vacuum if you turn it on without a plan so it’s best to have someone take him outside or cover his ears when those are running. He takes meds daily. He’s a loving, goofy dog who just needs to be someone’s whole world.

Story
Meet a sweet, loving girl searching for her forever home. She adores people, especially kids, and would do best with children 7 and older since she gets excited and may jump up to say hello. She may bark at strangers at first, but quickly warms up and rolls over for belly rubs. Phoenix loves exploring, sniffing, and spending time outdoors. A home with room to roam would be ideal, though she’s also happy with regular walks and adventures. She’s athletic and can jump a standard chain-link fence, so a secure yard is important. She has lived peacefully with a small Chihuahua mix and was best friends with a neighbor’s senior dog. However, she has had conflicts with our Beagle, so we believe she would be happiest as the only dog in the home. She is a very sweet companion with so much love to give. We want nothing more than to find her a home where she will be cherished, cared for, and loved for the rest of her life.

Story
Meet Gus! 🐾Gus is a handsome 2-year-old neutered male pitbull with a big heart and an even bigger capacity for love. This sweet boy has been through a lot, but he continues to show everyone just how resilient and affectionate he truly is.Gus does have some special needs, and he is looking for a committed adopter who will help him continue thriving. He takes daily Prozac to help manage his anxiety, and it has made a wonderful difference in helping him feel more secure and relaxed. He has undergone laser therapy on both of his back stifles due to a previous injury, and he has responded very well to treatment and can walk with ease now! With continued care, gus is expected to keep improving!In addition, Gus has food allergies and is currently on Hill’s Science Diet z/d, which has been working great for him. Staying on this diet will be important to keep him feeling his best, along with allergy medications.Gus would do best in a patient, loving home and giving him the support he needs! 💜

Story
Hi, this is Beta! She is a 7-year-old pitty (65lb), who loves to snuggle and cuddle. She will follow you around all day and make sure you're never lonely. We adopted Beta 5 years ago as a young couple and she has been a terrific pet pet and beloved companion. She responds quickly to training, is pets- and praise- and food-motivated. She knows many commands.She loves people! Loves to meet new people and will absolutely be tripping over herself to become your friend. She has a big bark to show her excitement that might sound intense, but that's just how her voice sounds. She gets along with other dogs pretty well and has lived with a Frenchie for the past 4 years. We are needing to find Beta a new home because we had a baby and learned that Beta does not like little people. She's great with kids over 8 but our now 2-year-old son stresses her out a lot. She did bite him last year to correct him (level 2 bite) and we have decided to find her a better home where she feels more comfortable.
