Story
Meet Tyson 🐾 Tyson is almost 5 years old and truly one of a kind. I traveled two hours to bring him home from his parents first litter he stood out right away, full of personality and charm. Tyson loves to cuddle, play, and run around. He’s wonderful with children (we have five, and he’s been nothing but gentle and loving with all of them). He’s truly a sweetheart who thrives on attention and affection. As our family grows and our schedules get busier, we sadly don’t have the time to give Tyson the attention he deserves. Were looking for someone who can give him the love, care, and time he needs.

Story
We got our dog from the shelter about a year ago. She is almost two years old and has lots of energy. She is completely potty trained and will let you know if she has to go potty. She doesn’t tear up anything so we never had to put her in a crate when we leave the house. She can be left alone for long periods of time. She is a very loving dog, she love attention. She does not bite and is great with people. She loves little kids and really anyone she comes across. She is supper high energy and loves to play. We love her so much the only reason me and my fiance are rehoming her is because I am now pregnant and we will be moving closer to family in a place that doesn’t accept dogs but it is more important for us to be near family in this time. I wont be charging for adoption because I just want her to find a loving home.

Story
This pretty, friendly, energetic girl needs a home. She was found wandering Forest Park. Took her to the vet, she had no chip. Approx. 1 yr old. Park Ranger said she had been seen wandering the park for a couple weeks, so seems she was dumped there, (said it's a common dumping area). APA couldn't take her and didn't want to take her to a kill shelter so trying to find her a home. I sadly cannot keep her. She loves to play fetch. Bought her a squeaky ball and she will literally place it in your lap and look at you until you toss it. She is basically housebroken, as long as you take her out regularly. She is high energy. In my opinion, she would do best with a family that can play with her, or someone that has a yard for her to run around in or some way to stimulate her daily. The neighborhood kids love her, she gives kisses, and squirrels are her nemesis for some reason haha. She has been spayed and vaccinated since finding her. She has a chip now that can be registered.

Story
Karma is approximately 3 1/2 yo, spayed, up to date on shots, heartworm negative & ~55 lbs.  Karma is super fun, loving, athletic and loves the water. She would love to be adventurous with you or just snuggle on the couch & binge watch some tv. Spayed, utd on vaccines, heartworm negative & microchipped. She keeps a clean kennel, not a fan of cats & with proper introduction would probably be OK living with another (male) dog.

Story
SPOT is looking for a foster or adopter.  Not only is he incredibly handsome, he’s smart & athletic too!  He would excel at agility or parkour!  Running buddy, you bet! Hiking, let’s go!  He’s also a tug-o-war enthusiast.  Spot is approximately 1.5yo, up to date on shots, neutered & microchipped.   He would be best as your only four legged companion or could possibly live with other dogs after decompression & SLOW introductions.   The shelter & other dogs stress him out, so after he has a walk/potty break the volunteers love to let him hang out with them while they clean.  He loves to just grab a bone or rope toy & entertains himself, that’s his version of helping.   If Interested in meeting Spot, please complete an application at sapamo-rescue.org. October 17, 2025, 10:14 am
