Story
Hi! My name's Penny, I’m a 5yo hound/lab mix, looking for a new “fur-ever” home! I like other dogs, but I'm an attention hound so being the only dog in the house might be more fun! I don't mind cats, and they're fun to chase. Things in a cage or aquarium are pretty boring. I don’t mind young humans, but the older ones are a lot more gentle with me. Things that I love: *WALKIES! I have a cool leash and everything! *Getting the zoomies (inside & outside!) *Playing with my human is fun! *My human coming home after being gone all day long *Playing with my loud squeaky toy or my duckie! *TREATS! Especially those meaty kabobs! *Leaping through fresh snow! *CAR RIDES! *Pup cups are amazing! *Chasing cats (even when they don't want to play with me) *Taking over half of the space on a human bed Things that I don’t love: *Water touching me, like rain. It feels yucky! *Being left alone too much. It makes me sad *Being allergic to ragweed. Makes my tummy itchy *No one believes I'm a pomeranian!

Story
Lucy was born in July of 2023. I adopted her from Stoneridgedoodles. She is the sweetest puppy. She is very active and loves to be outside. She will let you know when she needs to go outside to play or to use the bathroom. She is very curious. She is still in the puppy stage- so she is very playful, silly, and jumpy. I did start lessons with her but was unable to be consistent with teaching. She is very smart and catches on very quick. She loves to hold your hand when you pet her. It seems like she thinks she is human. She was spayed Feb 2024 and weighed about 34 lbs at that time. I got her and her brother at the same time. At the time my schedule was able to handle 2 puppies. I currently cannot care for both financially, my schedule and my kids therapy schedule. She is a dog that needs more attention than I can give her. The boys and I will hate to see her go, but I want her to be with a family that can give her what she needs. I will have her vet, breeder, chip information.

Story
Beau is a high strung pup who loves his people. He always wants to be with his people and often get anxiety due to his environment. He does well with other dogs but gets anxious around children with their unpredictable movements and loud noises. He is my best friend, a loyal and loving companion. My parents however are unable to keep him. Beau needs someone who has the train him. He also would thrive with someone who owns land, someone who could be a leader to Beau. He loves to go on walks and runs and does very well. He is very gentle, but jumps when he gets excited. He has a bite history, although they were nips when he had been harmed. Never serious inquiry requiring stitches. He is a very loving dog. Anyone interested please reach out as I’d love to find him the best home. Also Beau has a younger sister named Gertie, she is a gentle soul and they love each other. We are open to letting both of them be adopted together.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.To speed up the adoption process, please complete our Pre-Adoption Application.Hello, I am ready for my new forever home.**Foster Pupdate!**Brown Sugar Cinnamon, lovingly known as BSC, has tons of love to give, and loves a good adventure. Her ideal home has lots of belly rubs, outdoor time, and some chew toys. She prefers kids who are well behaved, rowdy kids make her a bit nervous so she'd rather walk away from that chaos. She is a perfect car companion and loves to go for a drive. Dog friends are great! She has shown too much focus on cats and other small animals, so she would do best in a home without those. She's done great at not having an accident in her foster home so she gets the privilege of sleeping in the bed. She loves to show off that she can give you a kiss while you're standing, but also that she's quick like lightning to roll over for some belly rubs!She does have a habit of jumping her foster's fence and digging. Prior to adoption I will be altered, vaccinated, health checked, dewormed, and micro-chipped.

He loves to play with dogs big and small. He hasn't had exposure to other animals besides the cat in his previous home. He loves to go on car rides and adventures. He's doing great in his foster home with no accidents, and knows how to use the doggy door. He will sleep anywhere, but does put himself to bed in his crate when he's tired.Hello, I am looking for my new forever home.
