Story
Lola is around 4 years old. We adopted her from a local shelter. She is very smart and loves all the cuddles. She needs a back yard that she run in and get her energy out. She loves to play ball and absolutely loves the snow. Unfortunately we have recently had a change in our living situation and apartment life isn’t for my girl. She is a bit reactive to other dogs when she is on a walk. However she got along great with the neighbors dogs when she is in her own yard. She loves to sniff and smell everything. She walks well on her leash. She is kennel trained and doesn’t mind being in it. I just want her to go to a good home that she can run free and be loved on!

Story
Meet Manchi This 2-year-old boy is a super quick learner with tons of personality, obedience, and love to give!Manchi already knows “go home,” “sit,” and “no bark,” and he’s always eager to please. He loves interactive play like tug-of-war and chase, and he thrives when he has structure, engagement, and time with his people.He has lived with children ages 2–18 and did well in the home. While he can get excited, he was a great companion in that environment. He is also not destructive when left alone.Manchi can be barrier reactive toward other dogs (he may react when seeing them through fences or barriers), so he’ll do best with a home that understands this behavior and can help him continue building confidence and calmness around other dogs.He was found as a stray with his littermate and was later surrendered due to littermate syndrome.

Tyler 12-year-old Tyler was found as a stray in O’Fallon on 5/20/26. Staff were able to contact his owner, but sadly he was never reclaimed.Despite being a senior gentleman, Tyler is still full of love and personality. He does have some arthritis, so he appreciates gentle interaction and prefers taking things at a slower, more comfortable pace.Tyler is a sweet, happy boy who enjoys a nice balance—he can still play and keep up with the younger pups in short bursts, but he’s just as happy soaking up snuggles and quiet companionship.He is:Always smiling Potty trainedGood on leashSocial and enjoys gentle interaction with people and other dogsTyler is the kind of dog who makes every day a little softer and a little sweeter.

Story
This is Tilly, Tilly was adopted from our shelter as a puppy in 2017. She is now 8 years old and found herself back in the shelter today. The family had a baby, and Tilly didn’t like to share her space and belongings as much and nipped the child in the face leaving small scratch. The family was torn and really struggled surrendering Tilly but thought this was the best decision for their family. I am determined to find Tilly a home where she can live out her years and feel loved again. She is a sweet girl that needs someone to help her. Please help Tilly as she is already shutdown and sad being back at the shelter. She doesn’t understand, she recognizes the kennel and is confused why she is here.About Tilly:(Spayed, 8 years old, microchipped and vaccinated) -good with kids over 8-lived with a dog around her size for 7 years but has been only dog for over a year now (dog interaction required)-grew up around cats!-doesn’t like dogs smaller than her-very sweet, and loves to cuddle -very mild energy, and chill girl!-crate trained -fully potty trained -knows a lot of commands!-great listener-has occasional allergies & gets meds for this-per family, around adults never has guarded her food, toys etc! Does around small children. -very well mannered-she wants to be wherever her people are!-she loves walksTilly would thrive in a home with no young kids, she is so sweet and just wants a place to retire in and a couch to nap on??????
