Story
Meet Indie! She's in need of rehoming. She is spay, has her rabies shot and is microchipped. 2 years old and 50 pounds. She is a very smart very loving dog! Best suited for someone who will be able to keep her mentally and physically engaged. She is high energy! She is house trained and kennel trained. Even though she’s high energy she loves to be a couch potato with her human too. She does ok with other dogs, most dogs she likes but occasionally there’s one she can’t stand. She should be monitored around other dogs. She has displayed a short temper with some of them. She seems to be respectful of cats. We’ve had large groups over for football parties etc. she does awesome! I’m not sure about little kids. She is a sensitive soul. So if you get upset with her or use gruff words she reacts immediately. She is not destructive. She’s very athletic and LOVES water!

Story
Meet April — a 12 y/o gentle, loving girl looking for her forever home April came to me for temporary care after a family member could no longer keep her, and now she’s ready to find a home where she can truly flourish. She’s a total sweetheart with a soft, sensitive nature. April startles easily, so she does best in a calm, patient environment. Once she feels safe, she loves nothing more than treats, quiet time, and curling up on a cozy blanket. April is kennel trained, though she rarely needs to be in one — she mostly uses it as her little safe space when she wants some downtime. She’s wonderful on walks. April is leash trained and enjoys both short strolls and longer adventures at a relaxed pace. If you’re looking for a gentle, loyal companion who just needs a little reassurance and a lot of love, April might be the perfect match.

Story
Meet Chad Michaels! 🐾 Short legs, big heart, and maximum cuddle power — Chad is ready to wiggle his way right into your life! Chad is a low-rider puppy is as an affectionate as they come and would happily spend his day snuggled up with his people. Chad is a social little guy who gets along great with puppies, big dogs, cats, and kids (even tiny humans as young as 2!). He loves being part of the action but is just as happy curling up for a cozy nap after playtime. This smart pup is already learning the ropes — he knows “sit” and will come running when you call him in an excited voice. Chad does well in a playpen, tolerates crate time, and is making great progress with potty training using puppy pads and outdoor trips (especially when treats are involved!). Chad would be happy as your one-and-only cuddle bug or with a playful dog friend. He’s sweet, silly, and full of puppy charm — basically everything you could want in a new best friend. Come meet Chad and prepare to fall in love with those short legs! 🐶 All CSHS pups are spayed/neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, 4DX negative (if older than 6 months), dewormed and microchipped.

Story
The adoption fee listed above is completely sponsored by a generous donor, so her adoption fee is waived! Sasha is as sweet as they come. This beautiful, well-mannered 4-year-old girl has worked so hard with her trainer and has become an absolute leash-walking champ! She’s fully muzzle-conditioned and happy to wear it! Sasha has never shown any people aggression, but she does have a strong prey drive—so she’ll need to wear her muzzle anytime she’s outside for the safety of our small dog friends and any other small critters in your neighborhood. We’d love to see her future home have a tall privacy fence where she can safely enjoy regular off-leash time without her muzzle. She’s affectionate, loyal, and loves being close to her people—whether it’s relaxing after a long day or joining you on adventures. Sasha does well with other dogs with slow introductions. This sweet girl is gentle with her toys, easy to bathe, and full of love to give. If you’re looking for a loyal, well-trained companion who’s ready for her next chapter, Sasha is your girl! 📹 See her in action: 🔗 Watch Sasha’s playlist All CSHS pups are spayed/neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, 4DX negative (if older than 6 months), dewormed and microchipped.

Story
Meet Spotty! Spotty is a two-month-old bundle of energy, personality, and puppy charm! This bold little guy loves snack time, mealtime, and belly rubs (in no particular order). If there’s fun to be had, Spotty wants to be right in the middle of it. He’s doing great with cats, other dogs, and kids, even tiny humans as young as two! Spotty is already using potty pads about 95% of the time like a smart pup, and he’s been enjoying time in a fenced backyard. He hasn’t started outdoor potty training yet, but he’s young and ready to learn. Like many puppies, Spotty is still working on his manners, especially around sharing food with other dogs, but with a little guidance and consistency, he’ll grow into a wonderful companion. If you’re looking for a confident, silly, affectionate puppy with lots of love (and wiggles) to give, Spotty might be your perfect match! All CSHS pups are spayed/neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, 4DX negative (if older than 6 months), dewormed and microchipped.

Meet Ilya 💛 If sweetness had four paws, it would be Ilya. This adorable little guy has the gentlest heart and the happiest spirit. Ilya loves people and lights up around other dogs — he’s the kind of pup who makes instant friends wherever he goes. Whether it’s cuddling on the couch or greeting you like you’ve been gone for years, he’s all in. Outside, Ilya has the cutest habit — he does a little happy bounce when he goes out with his bigger dog friend. It’s like his whole body can’t contain his excitement. Watching him hop along is guaranteed to make you smile. And if that’s not enough to melt you… he smiles in his sleep. Yes, really. Tiny sleepy grins that prove he’s dreaming the sweetest dreams. Ilya is looking for a loving home where he can share his joyful energy, snuggly sweetness, and playful spirit. He would thrive with people who adore puppy kisses and maybe even a dog sibling to bounce around with. If you’re ready for a best friend who will fill your home with love (and a little bit of adorable bouncing), Ilya is waiting to meet you. 💛🐾 All CSHS pups are spayed/neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, 4DX negative (if older than 6 months), dewormed and microchipped.
